Will hairline lowering cause my brows to be raised up? (Photo)

Question

Will hairline lowering cause the brows to be raised or distort any other parts of the face? I don't want my brows or any other part of my soft tissues to be moved with the hairline lowering procedure. I'm afraid I'll have a 'shocked'/deer in headlights expression.

You can lower your hairline with surgery but to understand how it may actually look or to understand realistic expectations, you need to see a doctor in person and have this conversation

Your eyebrows may be raised with a hairline lowering procedure.  One way to be certain to avoid eyebrow position changes is to have a hair transplant.  Hairs from the back of the head can be moved to lower your hairline for permanent, natural looking results.

Bryan Rolfes, MD · Answer

If you look at hairline lowering before and after photos you will notice that there is often a slight elevation of the eyebrows after surgery (and this normally looks quite feminine and natural). The tissue under your eyebrows is firmly attached to the bone right above your eye.  We commonly  release this to allow the eyebrows to raise slightly, but we don't have to.  If the attachments are left intact the brows will not significantly change with the procedure.   -Dr. Rolfes

Forehead reduction can be done with or without a browlift. You don't need a browlift so forehead reduction for you is done without any changes to the face at all. It's an easy and effective procedure to get the results in the after photo. Schedule a consultation for more info and discussion. Best wishes.

This never touches the brow so there is no movement of the brow downward as with a hairline lowering surgery (see below)

Richard W. Fleming, MD (retired) · Answer

A brow lift can be achieved simultaneously when lowering the hairline if that is necessary, However, an experienced surgeon can lower the hairline and reduce the forehead without any changes in brow position. Select a surgeon experienced in these procedures.
