Enhance Your Look with a Forehead Reduction Procedure in Beverly Hill
Forehead Reduction is a cosmetic procedure that lowers the hairline to create more balance in the face. The ideal forehead takes up one-third of the total height of the face. A large forehead can come from genetics, hair loss, or previous surgeries.
Regardless of the cause, getting a Forehead Reduction will result in a more suitable forehead size for the face overall.Also known as Hairline Lowering, this procedure is not time-consuming and generally safe. A proportionate hairline is usually 5.5 to 7 centimeters above the brows. There are always exceptions, but usually, when the hairline is higher than 7 centimeters above the brows, it alters the balance in the face, resulting in a larger-looking forehead. This procedure will correct the high hairline and reduce the size of the forehead.
What is Forehead Reduction?
Forehead Reduction surgery will shorten the distance between the hairline and the eyebrows. This surgery produces a more proportionally sized forehead that complements the rest of the face.You will be under anesthesia while an incision is made at the front of the hairline and forehead. After removing excess skin, the hairline will be pulled down and connected to the bottom of the incision. This technique will shorten the overall height of the forehead. The incision will then be closed, and if there are scars, they will mostly be covered by the hairline that regrows.
