About the treatment
Some people feel that they have a high or long forehead. This is often due to a high hairline, which can give the impression that the forehead dominates the proportions of the face.
With forehead reduction, also called hairline lowering, the height of the forehead can be surgically reduced to create more harmonious facial proportions.
The procedure involves moving the hairline downwards by removing a portion of the forehead skin. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia and is a well-established method in aesthetic facial surgery.
How the procedure is performed
The operation is usually performed under general anesthesia. The surgeon carefully plans the incision along the natural line of the hairline. A portion of the forehead skin is then removed, and the scalp is mobilized so that the hairline can be moved downwards.
The skin is then closed with great precision to minimize tension in the wound and optimize healing.
An important part of the surgery is not to remove too much skin, as excessive tension can affect scarring.
The goal is always to achieve a natural result with as discreet a scar as possible.
Scarring after forehead reduction
Because the incision is placed along the hairline, the scar is often well-hidden in the transition between skin and hair.
Over time, the scar fades in most patients and becomes less visible.
How discreet the scar becomes is influenced by several factors, including skin healing, skin tension, surgical technique, and aftercare.
During the consultation, we always go through how the scar is expected to develop and how you can optimize healing.
