I'm a young male with a relatively high forehead. I would like it to be about 0.5-1cm smaller. I could do less though. What options do I have? Not keen on hair transplantation. Anything non-surgical? Thanks in advance.

Answer: Not exactly. . . Hair transplants aren't exactly non-surgical, but they aren't really what most people consider surgery either. They are probably the least invasive option for you, but they may not be the best option. I think the best question to ask is "what is the best way to shorten my forehead with the fastest results and/or the least downtime?" Hair grafts will take months to grow in and may not work as well for you and give as good or as fast a result as some of the more "invasive" methods. Discuss your options with a surgeon who performs both hair transplants and forehead reduction surgery and they will help you decide which is best for you. Bryan Rolfes, MD

Answer: Non Surgical Options for Forehead Reduction? Unfortunately, there is no great non-surgical option to lower your forehead aside from hair styling/bangs. There are a few surgical options though to lower your hairline - this includes a hairline lowering procedure (one-stage surgery with instant results) or hair transplantation surgery (can be done in one or two stages, results in 3-6 months). Both of these options can appear daunting at first, but I recommend having a consultation just to get more information about either procedure to see if they may work for you. I hope this helps!
