Ideal Candidates
Ideal hairline lowering candidates are individuals who are…
- Seeking a lower hairline for a more balanced forehead-to-face ratio.
- Unhappy with a high hairline or prominent forehead.
- Comfortable with undergoing a minor surgical procedure.
It’s essential to be in good health and have realistic expectations.
Hairline lowering can enhance your appearance, but it will not stop the natural aging process
Preparation
All our procedures require you to avoid alcohol and smoking.
Scalp and skin health are important before a hairline lowering procedure, so we may recommend limiting sun exposure or considering certain scalp care treatments in advance.
If you’re taking any medications, we’ll review these along with your medical history before scheduling your hairline lowering.
The Process
Our process is clear and easy.
- In your consultation, we’ll discuss your goals and provide details about the hairline lowering procedure.
- If you feel confident after our discussion, you’re welcome to schedule the surgery with us.
- Once booked, we’ll send any necessary preparation tips and materials.
- On the day of your procedure, you’ll arrive, and we’ll perform the hairline lowering with exceptional care.
- After surgery, we’ll make sure you have all aftercare resources and arrange follow-up appointments.
The Procedure
Hairline lowering is designed to reduce the height of the forehead, bringing the hairline down to create a more balanced and harmonious appearance.
This procedure offers more permanent results than styling or non-surgical options, providing a natural shift in the hairline position.
The focus is on shortening the forehead space, which enhances facial symmetry and adds balance to your overall look.
Different techniques are available—some adjust only the central hairline, while others lower it across the entire forehead.
If desired, we can tailor the procedure to achieve your ideal hairline position and shape.
Recovery
After a hairline lowering procedure, it’s normal to experience some soreness and swelling around the forehead area.
Most patients can return to work within a week, though we recommend taking it easy and avoiding strenuous activity for the first few days.
The final results of hairline lowering are usually visible within 4–6 weeks, though full healing may take longer depending on individual recovery rates and how quickly swelling subsides.
Following the recovery instructions carefully is essential for optimizing results and minimizing any risk of complications. By adhering to the recommended aftercare plan, you can ensure a smoother recovery and achieve the best outcome.
Throughout the recovery period, we’ll arrange regular follow-up appointments. These check-ins allow Dr. Greg to monitor healing, answer any questions you may have, and provide ongoing support, helping you feel confident and pleased with your results.
