Hairline Lowering

Hairline lowering is needed in women who have always had a congenitally high hairline. With the aging process, this is accentuated giving the women a balding/masculine appearance. For those patients, the Hairline Advancement Procedure has been developed to lower the hairline and to bring the proportions of the face and hairline into balance. This procedure is performed at the same time as the Hairline Forehead Lift, or alone. In rare instances where there is not enough elasticity in the scalp to provide adequate advancement, a Tissue Expander can be placed under the hair-bearing scalp. The Expander is slowly filled, and, over time, will stretch the scalp to provide the needed advancement of the hair-bearing scalp and lower the hairline. After several weeks, the Tissue Expander is removed and the hairline is advanced into its correct position utilizing the camouflage incision at the hairline
