Hairline Advancement
Hairline Advancement, also known as Forehead Reduction or Hairline Lowering, is a surgical procedure that lowers the position of the hairline to reduce the height of the forehead and create more balanced facial proportions. It results in a more youthful and harmonious appearance, particularly for those with a naturally high or receding hairline.
Performed by Dr. Adibfar at Element Toronto, the procedure is customized to your facial features, hairline position, and aesthetic goals. It is often combined with forehead contouring or hair transplantation for optimal results.
The surgery involves an incision along the front of the hairline, allowing the scalp to be advanced forward and excess forehead skin to be removed. The incision is carefully closed to minimize visibility once healed.
Risks include swelling, bruising, temporary numbness along the hairline, asymmetry, and rare complications such as infection or visible scarring. Dr. Adibfar will discuss all risks with you during your consultation.
Most patients return to work within 7–10 days. Swelling and bruising subside over 2–3 weeks, with final results visible after 3–6 months as the hairline settles and scars fade.
