$9,400

Hello I am a 31 year old woman, and I want to get a fire head reduction. I really dislike my long forehead. I have read some amazing reviews from Dr Kabaker and Dr Aharonov both in California. I had a FaceTime interview with Dr Kabaker he quoted me $7400. I spoke with Faye the assistant of Dr Aharonov and they quoted $9400 because they use the safest anesthesia method. I'm still undecided but I want around 1 1/2 inc remove in one step. Dr Kabaker said that he would only be able to do 1 inch when he saw my pictures. So I'm waiting to hear what Dr Aharonov can do for me. If anyone have some advice please let me know I'm planning to get this procedure done in early April 2016.

Any reason why you are choosing one over the other? I am interested in this procedure as well and I'm still looking for the best surgeon.

Dr Kabaker told he would only be able to do one inch. Dr Aharonov would to almost 2 inches in just one surgery. This dr also uses a safer general anesthesia form. Dr Aharonov work looks perfect to me too.

It appears that the leaders in the field are in California. Of course I'd want only the best to make such a huge change in my appearance, but I live on the East Coast. Is there any PS as equally skilled closer to me? I dread adding the cost and Inconvenience of flying cross country to what I'm planning to spend on this procedure. I'd love to hear from anyone who has done this or found someone in the east. Many thanks! I hope I can have such great results as you have!

Check out Dr. Vogel near Baltimore. He is excellent. I had mine done with him.

Thank you for the recommendation. That's about a 4 hour drive from me and very doable. I'd love to see your before and after pics if you're willing to share.

I'm 7 weeks post-op and still dealing with a pink scar. Needs a few more weeks before pics. ;) But there are others who had the procedure done by him w/ pics on here.

I would be cautious when trying to lower your hairline too much, I think that can lead to hair loss if it's moved/stretched too far. I got mine done with Dr. Mayer... I love the results so far.

Thanks for the info. Dr Mayer where is he located? Do you have before after pics. Thank you.

Hi Lowerhairline28! After a year of your op, did your hair grow stronger? Can you now see your scar across the hairline?

UPDATED FROM jaelow181

Decided with Dr Kabaker

jaelow181July 22, 2016

Hello ladies, so I'm finally decided to go with Dr Kabaker for the my forehead reduction the third week of August. It was a big decision I compared boat best doctors in California for this procedure Dr Aharonov and Dr Kabaker. I chose Dr Kabaker because the pictures I seen of his patients look more natural, and less scaring. Dr aharonov is good but the scars are too visible. Because I have thing hair I need to make sure that the scar is the less minimum possible plus I want a more natural look. I will keep you guys updated.
