Look at my forehead, It's too long, And see where the eybrows are, there like a dent, it's hard to explain. Is there a way to fix this?
Answer: Exam If you are not happy with the appearance of your forehead and the "dent" see a doctor for an exam. There are surgical options available but you need the exam to make sure a forehead reduction is possible in your particular case.In general, forehead reduction surgery involves an incision along your hair line and pulling your scalp forward and cutting out any overlapping skin then sewing back the skin. This obviously requires an exam to make sure your scalp is loose enough and you do not have other un-diagnosed cause of hair loss.**Limitation of a foreahead reduction is that sometimes you will see a scar on the hair line (no matter which technique or doctor you choose). Another limitation is that you will not get the rounding on the side corners (oval shaped hair line which many women have).Other surgical option is hair transplant surgery. Hair transplant surgery involves harvesting hair from the back of your head and relocating to the front (one by one) to create a new lower hair line. This also requires an exam. Your hair line can be lowered and sides narrowed (rounded).**Limitation of a hair transplant surgery is that you will have to wait for the hairs to grow and it will not be as full as a hair line lowering surgery (no matter which technique or the doctor you choose). Some patients decide on BOTH surgeries to take advantage of what each surgery can provide.

Answer: Hairline lowering with the Irregular Trichophytic Incision. Hairline lowering with the Irregular Trichophytic Incision is and operation which we developed any years ago and continues to be the best way of achieving your goals. Hair grows through this incision so you do not see the scar. The only requirement is that you have enough elasticity in your scalp to do this. If not a tissue expander can be used to accomplish the same thing. This is far cheaper than doing multiple sessions of transplants and the result is immediate. You can return to work in 3 to 4 days.

Answer: Position of hairline There are two types of procedures for lowering a woman’s hairline. One, is a surgical excision of the upper forehead followed by the downward advancement of the hairline up to an inch from where it was prior to the surgery. To accomplish this, the entire scalp from the frontal hairline to the very back of the crown, is lifted up and pulled forward. When this is done by an experienced surgeon, the hairline can often be advanced about 2/3rd – 1 inch if there is enough looseness when this lifting process is done. This procedure is often complete in one surgical session; however, it may not address receded corners of the hairline if the corner recession is significant. A great advantage of this surgical approach is the immediate impact of the procedure on hairline location with healing usually complete in a week or so. Sometimes this procedure produces a scar in front of the hairline, and if this is this is the case, a hair transplant in front of the hairline can address the scar. If there is corner rounding that is not addressed by the surgical lowering, then hair transplants can address this very well. Hair transplants take 7-8 months to fully grow out.

Answer: Long Forehead I cannot see the dent in this picture but you do have a high hairline. The hairline can be lowered and facial proportions improved using the Irregular Trichophytic Incision technique that we described many years ago to hide the incision and provide hair of normal uniform thickness and therefore total freedom of hair styling.

Answer: High hairline/tall forehead If you have a very flexible scalp and forehead, a routine one stage hairline lowering procedure could resolve your height problem. A depression of the bone might be handled by adding an implant or shaving down prominent bone.
