About Forehead Reduction

Forehead reduction surgery is a popular cosmetic option to change forehead height or lower the hairline. Several factors, like genetics, hair loss, injuries, or prior surgeries, can contribute to a larger forehead.

By decreasing your forehead's height, we can help restore a balanced and proportional appearance for you.

I would thoroughly recommend Dr Arshad @ the Hair Dr and his team. They have done an astonishing job that I thought was unachievable and exceeded my expectations. After the procedure, Dr Arshad explained the aftercare requirements in detail. I was then given a comprehensive aftercare package with an easy-to-follow video and checklist.

Dr Arshad was amazing. He went into great detail about the procedure and what to expect, explaining the best way to achieve optimal results from both his side and my aftercare routine. The aftercare was very well provided, including a clear step-by-step chart for the 7 days following the procedure. All the staff were incredibly kind and made me feel comfortable throughout the day. I’m happy with the results so far and now waiting for the initial growth over the coming months.

I had wanted to undergo this procedure for quite some time, but finding the right clinic was not easy. After my 11-hour day yesterday and previous consultations with the highly professional and knowledgeable Dr Arshad, I know I made the right decision choosing this team. The clinic is lovely, and the team is friendly and caring. A big thank you to Laura, Samina, Sarah, and Jenna for taking such great care of me alongside Dr Arshad. As a clinician myself, I would wholeheartedly recommend this clinic to any of my patients needing this type of treatment.

Dr Arshad and his team were excellent from my initial consultation through to the end of the procedure. It has been a week since my surgery, and my hair already looks great. The donor area is almost completely healed and barely noticeable. On the day of the procedure, the entire team, including the technicians, were friendly and welcoming. The aftercare package was very well prepared, and everything was explained clearly. I’m really looking forward to seeing the full results over the next few months.

I came in for an FUE hair transplant on 20th July. Dr Arshad and the entire team were fantastic from start to finish. They made me feel comfortable and explained everything clearly throughout the day. I couldn’t recommend them enough to anyone considering the procedure. I’m excited to see the final results. Thank you all!

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Forehead Reduction Surgery FAQs

Following the numbing of the forehead, incisions are carefully crafted along both the hairline and forehead, with the precise length pre-determined during your pre-surgery consultation. The surplus skin is then excised, and the incisions are meticulously stitched together. This process results in a forward shift of the hairline and a reduction in forehead size. The resulting scar is primarily concealed within the natural hairline, significantly diminishing its visibility as hair regrows.
