What is Hairline Lowering Surgery and how does it work?

A hairline lowering procedure can help lower your hairline, change the shape of the hairline or thicken the hair where thinning may have occurred. individual hair follicles are implanted to enhance or completely change your hairline.

What is the difference between hairline lowering surgery and forehead reduction?

Both Hairline Lowering and Forehead Reduction Surgery can help reduce the size of your forehead. However, Forehead Reduction is a much more invasive surgery and often, those who have a Forehead Reduction procedure have a Hairline Lowering procedure as well to help cover the Forehead Reduction scar across the hairline. 

During a Hairline Lowering Hair Transplant or Hair Grafting Surgery, individual hairs grafts are taken from the back of the scalp and implanted to create a newly shaped and/or lower hairline. There is a linear scar where the hair is harvested (removed) from at the back of the scalp that usually cannot be seen unless a patient keeps the back of their hair cut extremely short. 

During Forehead Reduction Surgery,  excess skin on your forehead is removed by making an incision across your hairline. The doctor then sutures the skin together to reduce the size of your forehead. Some surgeons use tissue expanders and some offer do so without the need for tissue expanders.

Many opt for the Hairline Lowering procedure as it is minimally invasive and can meet their goals of reducing the look of a high forehead by adding more hair.
