There are no published numbers of the shock hair loss risk after a hairline lowering procedure. This may also depend on the surgeon who performs the surgery and his/her expertise with it. This is a question that should be reserved to the doctor who may be doing your surgery, asking for his/her experience with shock […]

You need to be evaluated by a competent doctor. You can check with a plastic surgeon for this procedure. The costs vary with doctor. I do not have any Ohio recommendations. I generally prefer to restrict this surgery to women. Men who might lose hair will recede behind the surgical site where the hairline was […]
I will answer your questions as if you mean the hairline lowering procedure through excisional surgery, and not hair transplantation. This procedure is usually done under local anesthesia with some sedation. The effects are immediate, although there is swelling for up to a week. There is a scar at the hairline, so if you have […]
Generally there are two surgical options for hairline lowering for men and women with high foreheads. The first option is a traditional hair transplantation surgery. For a good example of this, please see: Female Hairline Restoration After Brow Lift. The second option is a hairline lowering technique, a more extensive surgery like a brow lift […]
A hairline lowering procedure is done by plastic/cosmetic surgeons and a small number of doctors in the hair restoration business. You might check locally with those in this area of specialty. If you want to travel to California, I would be happy to consider doing this procedure, or I would recommend Dr. Sheldon Kabaker in […]
Yes, the hairline can be lowered by a technique that differs from hair transplantation. In this technique, a strip of skin is removed from just below the frontal hairline and a trichophytic incision will be used to blend frontal hair into any scar that forms. The cosmetic result of a lowering hairline surgery is immediate […]
If you knew for sure that you would not bald, then a hairline lowering procedure can give you a fairly fast result (immediately after the surgery). If your hairline went up because of frontal balding, a hair transplant can bring down the hairline quite nicely, though the results of which will not be seen for […]
The cost of a hairline lowing procedure in my hands is $7,000 (includes surgeon’s fee, operating room costs, and anesthesia costs) and the recovery time is rapid (usually full recovery in a week with minimal swelling by that time). The scar that forms most often becomes obscure and lightens enough over time not to require […]
Women with a high forehead sometimes seek hairline lowering procedures. We have had experience doing these procedures, but it is a more extensive and involved surgery, a sort of reversed brow lift surgery. Hair transplants are also used to lower the hairline and the results are just as comparable. There are obvious pros and cons […]
Hairline lowering procedures work as well for men as they do for women. The problem is that 50% of men will experience some form of balding, most in the front of their heads. With a successful hairline lowering procedure, what do you think will happen when the hairline recedes from male patterned genetic hair loss? […]
I generally do not comment on a doctor’s ability on this website, because if I do not know or I think negatively about him/her, I do not want to put myself in dangerous territory. I will make an exception in this case. Dr. Kabaker is a master of the hairline lowering procedure and taught it […]
The answer is, “It depends.” If you have genetic female hair loss (which actually usually maintains the frontal hairline in women) shock loss is possible and when it occurs in women, it is rarely permanent. If you are trying to lower your hairline because you have had a forehead/brow/face lift then hair transplants work very […]
Shock hair loss is unusual in women who receive a hairline lowering procedure, provided that they do not have female genetic hair loss. For a doctor near you, you might want to locate a good plastic surgeon in your area and check out his/her experience with the procedure or look to the physician search at […]
The hairline lowering procedure is a good one. The best way is probably the surgical approach where the actual hairline is lowered by up to an inch. The results of this are immediate (hair transplants take time) but there will be some minimal scarring in the frontal area for a while (most disappear over time) […]
