Does the hairline have to be lowered in forehead reduction surgery? (Photo)

Tasteful711484
Hello, I am a 28 white F 145 pounds and 5'4". Does the hairline have to be lowered in forehead reduction surgery? Or can the size simply be reduced by removing skin or something? I am afraid to have my hairline lowered because i am losing a lot of hair and it is gone near my temples where it used to be so im afraid if a doctor tries to lower my hairline, hair may start to grow back where it is currently missing and the doctir will not know this since it is not there
