If you look closely, you can see lots of hairs growing through the incision. There is no make up on my scar! I'm loving the results.

Hi! Your results are amazing. I've just had this procedure done. I'm pod 6. Did you have any hair loss at all and is there anything you'd recommend with healing? I still have stitches in and the seem a bit lumpy. Also do you have feeling on the top of your scalp? Sorry for all the questions :0) xx
hey there, thank you so much! No I didn't experience any hair loss at all. Two days after I got my stitches out, I started massaging the scar gently with a scar cream once a day, and a few times with coconut oil. I feel like the massaging helped a lot with the healing and the hair growth! From what I've read here on RS it's totally normal for the stitches to be lumpy. Could be either scabs or just your skin adapting to the new position. No, the top of my scalp was totally numb within the first few weeks! The sensation is slowly coming back now, but it can take up to 1 year. Where did you get it done? Are you happy with the size of your new forehead?
Thank you for replying! I'm really pleased with the size, I've lost about 2cm but mine was very uneven so it's now just perfect
Not all of my comment posted :0( I had mine done with mr Hassan elite surgical. Coconut oil is a great idea, can't believe I didn't think of that myself!
Can you post your actual result please!!
this is my actual result! :) it hasn't changed since I posted these pictures, because the scar had already healed so well.
Did you have any shock hair loss?
no, luckily I didn't! how is your scar healing?

The scar is looking really good. Congratulations! Did you doctor mention anything about the temple areas?
thank you! Yes, he said that it's normal if some areas take longer to heal, but it's healing really well, so I just need to be patient.

That's great news! :)

Here are my before and after pictures. My forehead was at 8cm before the surgery, now it is 5cm and I feel like it's the perfect size for my face. It also made my hair look a lot thicker (I have thin hair).

How much did it cost please? Looks amazing!!
thank you! I don't remember exactly but it was around £6'800
Hi, so many people are using this same Dr, he must be good! Can I ask. When measuring your forehead, where do you start the measurement from? Thanks! X
Also forgot to add to ask, how soon after the surgery did they say you can exercise?
hey there! the measurement starts from the top of your eyebrows (where the inner corners of your eyes are located). you can exercise again after 6 weeks post-op :)
and yes, Dr. Inglefield does an amazing job!! I'd choose him again, if I planned on getting other things done :)
