Forehead reductions, like all surgeries, are not all created equally.
Technique plays a large roll in potential (temporary) hair loss, frontal hairline pattern and an invisible scar.
Technical expertise, personal as well as operative team experience directly influence the result.
The surgical time is roughly three hours.
Cost is roughly $8000-10,000 excluding aesthesia
Hope this helps

Reduction of the forehead can be done by lowering the hairline with a scalp advancement procedure. If a great deal of reduction is required or if the scalp has little laxity, a two stage procedure with a tissue expander is used. Also bone reduction of a prominent forehead could be done in the same sitting adding cost. An alternative process would be to have hair transplantation to lower the hairline. Depending on your conditions and choice of procedures costs can be anywhere between $6000 and $20,000.
I do this 2 different ways using the Irregular Trichophytic Hairline incision which we developed 30 years ago. If the elasticity of the scalp is flexible I can just advance the scalp. Otherwise, I use Tissue Expansion. With either procedure the bone can be shaved along the eyebrows at the same time.
