Two-Stage Forehead Lengthening
A coronal browlift will lengthen the forehead to some degree but with that increase will be a resultant elevation of the brows as well. The problem is that simple stretching of the skin will not necessaily make for more than 1/2 to 1 cm of forehead lengthening without changing brow position. One alternative option is a two-stage approach with a tissue expander first followed by a coronal browlift approach. This is the most assured method of lengthening the forehead skin and moving...

Coronal Brow lift tends to lift the hairline
The short answer is that a coronal brow lift with the incision completely in your hairline will lift the hairline thereby expanding your forehead non hair bearing skin with hidden incisions.

Hairline elevation using a forehead or brow lift
A transcoronal surgical browlift, or forehead lift is the most reliable technique for long lasting hairline elevation and it offers other benefits such as removal of the frown line muscles, smoothing of horizontal forehead lines opening up the eyelid area by repositioning excess droopy eyelid skin and raising the eyegbrows. The scars are completely hidden in the hairline. Up to 2 cm elevation is usually possible as long as the eyebrows don't end up too high so this requires an...

Depending upon how your forehead looks, a brow lift may be a possible solution. This can be a very good procedure to increase the length of the forehead and balance it against the lower 2/3's of the face. An exam is essential.

Forehead elevation
Hello,
There are many options available to lengthen your forehead if that is what you would like to achieve. A more common request is forehead shortening as the forehead tends to lengthen as we age. If you have deep forehead wrinkles and a low forehead botox may help both. This is sometimes seen in the younger patients with strong forehead muscle activity. Otherwise there are a number of other surgical and non surgical options available. if your eyebrow are...

Surgery Forehead lengthening
Raising the hairline can be done in several ways, surgically or non-surgically. For non-surgical options certainly laser hair removal is an option. However it's more effective for brunettes or noirs rather than true blondes because the laser targets pigment in the hair's root (blondes have little pigment so it's less effective). Waxing and plucking are not practical and short lived. For a permanent and very effective solution, a "coronal" lift may be used - this technique can raise the...

Laser vs Surgery
As you have read, there are many options but assuming that your concerns are valid and will make a difference to you, laser hair removal would be best if your hair is on the darker side. This would give you a gradual elevation of your hairline. Surgery would involve a scar across the top of your head that could leave the scalp behind it numb and hair loss along the scar making it visible and requiring revisions. Regardless, if you truly like the "look" of a higher...
