If you already have a high forehead, > 7 - 8 cm in height then a hairline forehead lift is a definite consideration. Using this technique and incision is made just at the hair line. The trick is to bevel the incision in the direction of the hair follicles. This helps to preserve the hair and have hair grow through the scar. This helps to hide the scar. This is an excellent technique to use in a patient with a high forehead. There are downsides to this incision which include the length of the scar and numbness in areas of the scalp behind the scar.
