It's been a little over a month since I had my hairline lowering with Dr Nettle, and I am so incredibly pleased and over the moon with the results - it is better than anything I could have imagined! I was a little worried beforehand about what I would look like afterwards, as it wasn't until 10 minutes before I went into surgery that he drew the lines of how low it would be lowered; but I had nothing to be worried about, as he knew exactly what would look good/ fit with the rest of my face, and most importantly what could be safely achieved. Now I can't even remember what my forehead used to look like, the scar is healing very well and I have lots of new hair growing through the scar. I also have had very little hair loss (I just get more stray/ loose hairs coming out around my head than usual), but I haven't noticed any coming out or missing around the incision. I am even able to wear my hair in a middle part without anyone noticing (something I've been dreaming about forever!), and I have found using the recommended scar cream really helps fade it.
The whole experience and recovery have also been very easy; and even though the top of my head is still numb, I am completely used to it now. The only (minor) issues I have encountered is my forehead becoming very oily (which usually isn't the case), and I have lots of little bumps at the top of my forehead - but these are a very small price to pay!
This surgery has changed my life and has given me so much more confidence - for anyone considering this surgery, I would definitely recommend Dr Nettle.
The only advice I would give is that the quote you are given beforehand is not exact to the actual amount you end up paying, as the hospital ended up charging $500 more, and i didn't find this out until the day before. The quote however says it is only an estimate; so definitely confirm the total amount with the hospital!

I would love to get this procedure done by Dr Nettle. How much did it end up costing you all up?

Thanks for the helpful review. Do you mind sharing pictures of the scar now that it’s been a few years? Have you had any complications since? Thanks so much for taking the time to help others
