where I live they don't do hairline lowering surgery only hair transplant.. Would hair transplant be suitable for me to make forehead look smaller?

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

Hair transplant surgery can lower your forehead.  You need to understand the limitations and the doctor needs to examine you and give you an assessment and plan.  The first step is to make an appointment with a doctor.

you can lower your hair line doing hair transplant surgery. We have many women that had this done and it is very successfull. You need to do ultra refined microscopic surgery with dense packing. The needle size, incisions and directions are very important to get a natural result.

You can fly to a surgeon that performs hairline lowering procedures in a woman which works well. Forehead reduction surgery comes in two types, the first is a
surgical procedure that gives you same day results, the second is a hair
transplant that takes 6-7 months to see the growth to appear. For women, the
surgical procedure results are very short. On my website, there are great
pictures of hair transplant lowering procedures in women and in our gallery on
our website, you can see hundreds of men who had their hairline replaced,
lowered or improved. See the web reference below which shows four females with a hair transplant lowering procedure

Hair transplants can lower the hairline and look good if enough work is done. It would take 2 or 3 transplant sessions to equal the density of a hairline lowering procedure. If you are a good candidate(appropriate scalp flexibility, hairline shape, proper hair growth direction, front hair density, etc. ) for this procedure,it is worth the travel to see an expert. The majority of my hairline lowering patients travel from all over the world and spend as little as two nights before flying home.

Jonathan Ballon, MD (in memoriam) · Answer

Yes – many women with congenitally high hairlines have successfully undergone hair transplantation to reduce the size of their foreheads.  The results can be very pleasing. (See below, 8 months after a single procedure.) As with any hair transplant, two or more procedures may be required to achieve the density (thickness) that is desired.
