Which procedures could fix my prominent cowlick on front of hairline, and an asymmetrical hairline together?

April 5, 2015
Asked By:danicamorunga_ in New Zealand, NZ

I have two cowlicks at the front of my hairline, one on either side of the top of my forehead. I am not so bothered by the left one but I am with the right one as it is quite prominent and also that the hair line recedes a little too - being assymetrical. Would hairline surgery fix my problem? As I hear that hairline surgery is meant to reduce forehead space (I wouldn't mind if it it would be reduced a little but it's not the main reason of why I'm thinking of getting this surgery). Thank you (:
