Forehead reduction update
FrisApril 26, 2016
WORTH IT
It's been 3 months 2 1/2 weeks since I had the operation and all is going well. After about 4 weeks after surgery I did have some hair loss in places, but nothing to severe and I was able to style hair differently to cover it up. I was so scared of this happening as I have fine hair and losing even just a little was too much!! But I am pleased to say that there is new hair growth in these spots and there is new hair growth in the new hairline, disguising my already faint scar. I've posted a couple of photos just so you can see the new growth. I still cannot feel a thing on the top of my head, it it could take upto 2 years before the sensation returns, a small price to pay for the change in my life :-D. I can now go out with my head held high and feeling the wind blowing through my hair, and if I get up late and have no time to fix my bloody fringe with spray, those bad hair days have gone, as now I can just pull it back woohoo, something people take for granted, but I'm grateful now every day. I would definitely recommend this surgery to anyone who is very unhappy with their forehead and if it controls their daily lives, we all have to understand that hair loss is a possibility but in time it will return ;-) xx

Hi, he's a fantastic surgeon I definitely recommend him. The new hair growth is an inch long now :-) X keep me posted if you make an appointment :-) x

You look absolutely amazing...what a wonderful procedure and surgeon!! Has the new hair growth covered the incisions? My only concern would be whether the incisions on the forehead will always be visible.

Sorry for not updating sooner. I've been back to work and time has flown. Anyway I'm glad my post has been helping some of you with making decisions. I've tried to be honest and as helpful as I can. I have posted some photos taken today to show you how my scar has been healing. I have been really luck but I have been very good with maintaining lymphatic drainage and not being around people when they are smoking along with every evening massaging c e ferulic antioxidant into the hairline, but it's paid off :-)
As mentioned I have had a small amount of hair loss, but it's to be expected due to trauma to the scalp. It scared me as I have fine hair and thought losing some would be quite dramatic, but to be honest you cannot notice and I have already got new hair growth woohoo. I still have no sensation at the top of the scalp, but I expecting this for upto 2 years and if it comes back sooner then it's a bonus and numbness is a small price to pay for the new life this surgery gives you. I've been out in the wind with no hat, no hairspray and my head held high, wow I've NEVER EVER done that before, I can't wait for summer to arrive so I can tie my hair back away from my face without a worry :-)
I cannot believe how quickly time has passed and it seems such a longtime ago now that I was in recovery.
If anyone is considering this surgery I truly recommend it, just do your homework like I did and make sure you chose the right surgeon for YOU, take care xx

I'm having this surgery tomorrow and I know EXACTLY how you feel. I spent my life ducking my head against the wind (like THAT helped) to keep bangs down to hide the vast expanse masquerading as my forehead. To no avail I might add! You look fabulous and I'm so happy you have done this so young so you can reap these benefits your entire life. Good for you.

Ahhhh thank you, I'm not that young lol wish I had it done when I was in my 20's or 30's .
We all relate to the downside of the wind, thank goodness for hairspray lol I'm so excited for you, who's doing your surgery? How are you feeling ? X

Dr. Bryan Sonntag in Sandy, Utah. I am so excited it's not funny. He was very cool and chill looking at my monstrous forehead and we had a little laugh about how very high it is. He said I have my parents to thank for it, the wonder of genetics!! I was referred to him by a friend in Vancouver WA who had a facelift with him and it was the best work I'd ever seen. When I told him he had a fan club in the Great Northwest he laughed and said he's getting quite the caravan of people traveling from the Portland area for his services. If I turn out like my friend, I can definitely see why.

That's great, knowing someone who has been to him, well I'll be thinking of you, it will all be worth it, you are now about to change the rest of your life and you will be so relieved on how it will change you ;-) if you need any advice etc whilst in recovery please message me, I'm so excited for you, good luck xx

Honestly, I loved your before forehead. Women with large round foreheads are always so attractive! Most people have medium or small foreheads, so women with larger ones feel self conscious. But typically they are very pretty people. Just look at Pamela Anderson, Tyra Banks, Rihanna...and many more. Your still a pretty girl..but your forehead was what gave you that extra Extra❤

Thank you :-) No I'm not using anything apart from the ce ferluic that I've been using one week prior to surgery, so it could be that that has helped. Have you had surgery? Or are you considering? X
