I have been trying to make up my mind if I should go for hairline lowering surgery or having a hair transplant to reduce the size of my forehead? I feel that the scarring from hairline lowering will be very noticeable compared to if I have a hair transplant as there is no scarring and I could have a fuller looking head of hair at the front, any suggestions?

Answer: Hair transplant versus hairline lowering A hair transplant may be more beneficial for your hairline lowering concerns. Hair grafting can be performed to lower the hairline without the risk of a hairline scar. Given the progressive nature of hair loss, if your hairline is lowered surgically you risk the scar becoming exposed in the future. Hair transplant would allow for a moderate filling in and lowering of the hairline without this concern.

Answer: Hair Transplant is a better choice As you correctly pointed out, lowering your hairline surgically as opposed to a transplant would carry the risk of scarring in a more invasive surgery. You should consider hairline lowering if you have other reasons to want a brow lift, (eg droopy eyebrows, severe forehead wrinkling etc). Ordinarily, a simple hair transplant would achieve this task with minimal risk of scarring.
