Where can I get hairline lowering surgery in Florida?

Question

I am finding all kinds of places in California that do it, but I don't see anyone in my area. I'm looking for someone in the Tampa or Orlando area. I have been told by surgeons in other states it wouldn't require any additional skin grafting, but that information doesn't help if I don't have somewhere to go!

Some people shop for the lowest cost.  Sometimes people don't want to travel.  If you are considering a major cosmetic surgery on your face/body, seek out the best surgeon based on reputation, not geography. Otherwise you may spend the rest of your life traveling around the world to fix a mistake.  The best hair line lowering surgeons in the world is (in my opinion) in California.

There are two types of procedures for lowering a woman’s hairline. One, is a surgical excision of the upper forehead followed by the downward advancement of the hairline up to an inch from where it was prior to the surgery. To accomplish this, the entire scalp from the frontal hairline to the very back of the crown, is lifted up and pulled forward. When this is done by an experienced surgeon, the hairline can often be advanced about 2/3rd – 1 inch if there is enough looseness when this lifting process is done. This procedure is often complete in one surgical session; however, it may not address receded corners of the hairline if the corner recession is significant. A great advantage of this surgical approach is the immediate impact of the procedure on hairline location with healing usually complete in a week or so. Sometimes this procedure produces a scar in front of the hairline, and if this is this is the case, a hair transplant in front of the hairline can address the scar. If there is corner rounding that is not addressed by the surgical lowering, then hair transplants can address this very well. Hair transplants take 7-8 months to fully grow out. To find a doctor who does this, go to the ISHRS website where doctors in your area will be listed and then do your homework by calling and asking them, one by one
