Forehead reduction, also known as hairline lowering or scalp advancement surgery, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at reducing the size of the forehead. This surgical procedure is typically performed to address a high hairline or large forehead, which can be a source of self-consciousness for some individuals.

During the procedure, a surgeon removes a strip of scalp tissue from the forehead area and then advances the hairline forward to create a more balanced and proportional appearance. The incision is usually made along the hairline to minimize visible scarring. The surgery may also involve reshaping the underlying bone structure if necessary.

Forehead reduction surgery is often sought by individuals who feel that their large forehead negatively impacts their facial symmetry or overall appearance. It can be performed as a standalone procedure or in conjunction with other facial plastic surgeries, such as brow lift or hair transplant, to achieve the desired aesthetic outcome.

As with any surgical procedure, there are risks and potential complications associated with forehead reduction surgery, including scarring, numbness, hair loss, and asymmetry. Therefore, it’s crucial for individuals considering this surgery to thoroughly discuss their expectations, concerns, and medical history with a qualified plastic surgeon before proceeding.
