I really want to make my forehead shorter/ bring my hairline lower. I have my uncles and my father hairline, who all have hair but they have this ‘M’ hair line where the sides of their hairline recede back, but they’re definitely not bald. My entire hairline even the center is very high and my sloping back forehead makes it even worse. I’m 24 yrs old....I don’t know if I will recede some hair or not. Like I said nobody is bald in my family. What kind of permanent surgery fixes long forehead/hairline?
