Forehead Reduction/Hairline Lowering

How is Forehead Reduction/Hairline Lowering Performed?

Forehead reduction surgery in Los Angeles is typically performed under general anesthesia. Dr. Ourian will first make an incision along the hairline, with care taken to preserve nerve endings and hair follicles while ensuring any scarring will be sufficiently hidden and inconspicuous. A section of skin will be removed from just below the hairline before it is lowered and sutured into its new position. Dr. Ourian is expertly trained and utilizes modern techniques to ensure the sutures leave least visible scarring possible; in most cases, these will be subtle and completely hidden in the hair.

Why do Candidates Choose Forehead Reduction?

There are several reasons why patients choose forehead reduction surgery in Beverly Hills.

First, men and women both experience hair loss. Hairline lowering surgery can reduce the impact of hair loss by revising the position of the hairline.

A disproportionately large forehead can also be the result of genetic factors, and is a source of self-consciousness for many people. If this is the case, forehead reduction is an option to create a more balanced face. Some Beverly Hills forehead reduction patients may also find that their brows appear too low or heavy, in which case the procedure may create a more proportionate look.

Finally, patients who have previously undergone another procedure, such as a brow lift or hair grafting, may find that their facial proportions would look more natural by pairing the results of that procedure with a forehead reduction.

What Procedures Can Be Done at the Same Time as Forehead Reduction/Hairline Lowering?

A brow lift is one of the most commonly paired procedures with forehead reduction. Dr. Ourian’s signature Los Angeles hairline lowering surgery may result in the brows being raised slightly, but this is not the primary goal of the procedure. For patients who wish to smooth wrinkles or fine lines in the forehead or elevate the position of low or droopy eyebrows as well as lower the hairline, a brow lift and forehead reduction can typically be performed simultaneously.

In less extreme or advanced cases of wrinkles or fine lines in the forehead, a forehead reduction may be paired with nonsurgical treatments such as Botox or other injectables. These offer temporary reduction of fine lines and wrinkles without additional downtime and recovery, and some patients choose to begin receiving injectables when they undergo.
