What could help the microcephalic-type appearance to my forehead/skull?

Question

I’ve not always had this issue, but as I’ve gotten older I’ve noticed how strange I look with my hair pulled back. I’m not sure exactly what is causing it, but I would love to be able to have my hair slicked back without looking so weird or like my head looks tiny. I feel like I look normal with my hair down, because it masks the issue. I wore my hair up all the time as a child and looked normal. What is causing this strange look and what can help?

Irregular Trichophytic (central )Forehead Hairline Lowering. Since inventing this procedure and having done more than 500 these I can tell you that you do NOT need a Forehead Lift and only Lowering of the central hairline. Make sure your surgeon can show you results as below.

As we age our hair recessed and our forehead lengthens. You have two options;1. Hair transplant to the front of your hairline to decrease your forehead height.2. Hairline lowering brow lift. This will lift your brows and also move your forehead hairline down. Visit with ABPS surgeons to learn more.Best

Your large forehead can be reduced, improving facial proportions. I suggest you consider the Irregular Trichophytic Hairline  Incision technique that I developed, described, and presented at National and International meetings many years ago. Hair does grow through and in front of the incision so you have total freedom of hair styling.
