Recovery Guide
What to expect during Forehead Reduction Surgery recovery
Forehead reduction surgery is performed to lower an excessively high or wide forehead by advancing the hairline downward. This procedure adjusts the overall facial ratio to achieve a more balanced and harmonious appearance. Unlike hair transplantation, forehead reduction surgery provides immediate visible improvement without waiting for hair regrowth. By carefully controlling incision design and preserving the muscle and surrounding structures, the procedure can create a smaller-looking face along with a naturally lowered hairline.
