Prominent forehead reduction for bald people?

Question

I have a proeminent forehead (the whole forehead, not just the brow ridge) I read it was possible to blurr it maybe by 5mm. I didn't put pictures, because it's a question that can be explained. I'm bald on top, so if an incision would be performed, it would leave a visible scar. Is there any other way to do it?

Forehead reduction of the entire forehead? This is not possible. Your brain is on the other side of your four head and if it is thin and it can easily lead to a fractured skull etc.

If you're talking about reducing the size of the forehead, this cannot be done in a bald person. If you want to change the contour of the forehead this can be done if the bone is thick enough (not likely), but the incisions will still be seen.

It is unlikely you are a candidate for a surgical lowering of your hairline if you have an ongoing balding condition.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

This question is difficult for me to understand as you posed it. .  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. For men, my only
concern is in the potential balding that may occur . If that happened to you (your
risk) then you will have to get a hair transplant to cover it as the frontal
area is the place that genetic frontal balding is common in man that has balding elsewhere. On my website,
there are great pictures of hair transplant lowering procedures in women on our
Home Page and in our gallery on our website (see below), you can see hundreds
of men who had their hairline replaced, lowered or improved.As we are in Los Angeles, California you should consider making an appointment with me to understand in depth what you have and how we can address your problem
