Hairline lowering - can’t wait to keep seeing the scar fade

So Relieved and Happy

I’ll start by saying I’d researched this procedure for many years also had several consultations with probably 5 surgeons before going through with it. I’d been nervous but always so self conscious about my forehead so when i found a local doctor my excitement was through the roof. I had my consult and less than a month later there was an opening for my procedure. ..

Day 1 - still drugged from the procedure until the evening when I felt like I was dying . I took strong pain meds which helped . I just slept and kept my head elevated.

First week - swollen face , developed a little bit of a black eye it was more like yellow .. used ice on day 5 which helped a ton and the swelling wasn’t noticeable by day 8

Second week - black scabs all along the entire incision .. it looked so ugly.. I used silagen cream twice per day even on the scabs . Kept covered and showered with Luke warm water only . Very gentle with the scabs!

Third week - scabs falling off while washing my face in the shower .. I freaked out but they were ready to come off .. lots of hairs growing Through the scar already . I use silicon cream during the day and intense collagen at night with a bandage wrap to keep the cream on.

Happy with the results truly relieved and can’t wait to keep seeing the scar fade.

Oh.. I was told by a doctor friend to massage the scar and my forehead and scalp to promote circulation until the tighteness subsides a bit more… this may or may not be doing anything :)

1 month out . Scar drastically fading. Using oil twice per day it seems to be working lot faster than that silicon creams. Will update again at 2 months crossing my fingers that it’s nearly undetectable
