My whole life I've been insecure about my forehead...

My whole life I've been insecure about my forehead. Like many of people here, I can't go swimming, do activities that include the wind and my hair styles are very limited. I'm tired of wearing hats to the gym and I hate it that I can't pull my hair up. I'm finally going to have surgery this December! I'm ver nervous and don't know how I feel about it. I constantly have second thoughts. I know it's going to be worth it! But can anyone give me a few tips on what to expect and how to prepare for this. What worked for you and what didn't? How long was your healing process? Did you have a lot of pain? How much hair did you lose? Etc. I would really appreciate all of your feedback!!

I had mine done with Dr. K last month! He's amazing! No pain, no hair loss! Very natural results, so excited for you!
September 25, 2016
that's great! I'm happy you had great results! How long after were you able to go back to work and use your hair back?
September 25, 2016
Thank you I went back the very next week! Could barely tell

Hardly no pain, but tons of hair loss and shedding, which is permanent. Had it with Kabaker a few years ago.
September 25, 2016
hello! when you say "permanent" does that mean you are currently experiencing hair loss?
September 8, 2016
Hey! Shoot me a message and I'll share with you my experience. I had it with Dr. Kabaker as well and I actually live in San Francisco, just across the bridge from Oakland. No hair loss/shedding. The pain wasn't terrible, but the itching as my scalp/nerves healed was awful. It's been 2.5 years since I had it done and I'm so glad I went through with it - and that I had Dr. Kabaker do it. Even so, my scalp doesn't have full sensation, often itches but scratching doesn't relieve the itching, and sometimes feels like it burns a bit. Anyway, please inbox me. Would love to share more.

I am also planning to go with kanaker this November... This coming monday I will do the consulation, when I consider the hair loss I have second thoughts... This is something I've been thinking since I am like 10 years old, I didn't know this surgery existed! Sometimes I am happy to be decided and the next day I think I don't want to lose my hair in the front... Maybe that could be worse.. I don't know what to do, my forehead is 7 cm and I have very thin hair, although I have a good quantity! Looking forward to have the consulation with kabaker this monday, any advice will be great!

Me too I have extremely thin hair and I don't have a lot of hair. I am afraid that this is going to make my situation worse, but I have decided that I am going to move forward with this procedure.

I've been thinking of doing it too! Good luck with your surgery and keep us posted

I definitely will! thank you for all the positivity!
