FOREHEAD REDUCTION

forehead for Male

The forehead reduction technique is suitable for male patients as well, although because of the typical male hair loss pattern, it is a little more challenging.

Men who have a high hairline may feel self-conscious about their appearance because it might give the appearance of male-type baldness.For this reason, men with an extended forehead frequently think about having a forehead reduction procedure. However, a hair transplant can also reduce the hairline.

Make sure to evaluate these things and talk with a qualified surgeon if you have been considering the advantages of a male hairline reducing operation.

forehead for Female

Procedures to reduce the hairline are particularly common among young women. 

Many women think about getting a hair transplant to lower their hairline or having their forehead reduced surgically since a high hairline might affect the overall symmetry of their face.

These procedures offer the face a more aesthetically pleasing and harmonious appearance.

Due to their higher hair density around the hairline, women make excellent candidates for this forehead reduction surgery. This therapy, in particular for ladies who don’t show symptoms of severe or genetic hair loss, can be quite beneficial. 

Surgery to reduce the size of the forehead is more expensive and complex than a hair transplant. You might wish to think about female hair transplant procedures at Estherian Clinic if you’re willing to decrease your hairline.

Procedure

before the operation

The surgeon will perform appropriate medical examinations and blood tests prior to the operation.

The patient’s hair should be long enough to cover the scars during the recovery period.

DURING OPERATION

The operation is done under general anesthesia. Forehead reduction surgery may be done in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures to achieve a more harmonious facial appearance.

The surgeon makes the surgery drawing, then an incision is made unevenly within the hairline to prevent a straight scar. 

The forehead is removed at the hairline, and then the scalp is pulled from the back of the head forward as needed.

 Usually, 1-1.5 cm advancement does not cause any problems. The scalp is then fixed to the bone using bioabsorbable material and degrades over time.

AFTER OPERATION

You should follow the doctor’s instructions to take care of the surgical incision and keep it clean.

You can leave the hospital a few hours after the surgery.

After a week, you need to come back and remove the surgical thread.

There is periodic follow-up for approximately four weeks after surgery.

Your hair begins to grow along the scar six weeks after surgery and becomes almost invisible.
