Am I a Candidate for Forehead Reduction Procedure? (photo)

The forehead can be reduced through a variety of different methods, and the best technique usually depends on patient preference. I perform forehead reductions through both hair transplantation (using either a strip or FUE harvest method), and through scalp advancement procedures, and both techniques have high patient satisfaction rates. It really comes down to the patient's lifestyle.
For patient's who want the quickest result, scalp advancement procedures tend to be the best option. The biggest downside with this technique is the scar, which takes several months to mature, fade, and allow hair to grow through the scar. With the hair transplant, the downside is that it takes 9-12 months for the transplanted hair to mature and start to show significant density and growth, AND many patients will end up wanting to pursue a second session to achieve maximum density. The upside with the transplant sessions is there is no linear scar along the frontal hairline, and the hairline can be tailored very closely to fit a desired look (adding density into the temples, curving the hairline, etc.). 
Both are great options! Be sure to see a surgeon who specializes in facial plastic surgery and hair restoration surgery in order to review all of these options in detail.
All the best,

Forehead reduction or hairline lowering surgery in Atlanta is a popular procedure.  Several factors determine if you are a candidate though 1.5cm is feasible in most people.  How mobile your scalp is when you put your fingers on your scalp and try to move it is a major consideration.  Also, previous surgery on your scalp or brow may preclude you from having surgery.  IMO, hairline lowering is better than hair transplant in my hands as the scar heals very well and patients are usually very happy as soon as day one.

Thank you for your question and photo.  Based on this photo, it does appear that your forehead is high and likely not in proportion with the rest of your facial features.  A forehead reduction will give you a beautiful and natural result and bring your forehead into a more balanced look.  The surgeon will just need to assess your scalp laxity to see if you will be a great candidate for a forehead reduction.  If you are a good candidate, this is a great option for you.  Hair transplantation is also an option, but the results may take 3-6 months to see.  I hope this helps and best wishes to you.
