Procedure
Scalp advancement or forehead reduction is a surgical procedure where they cut your scalp open in order to reshape it and then sew it back together. It takes around 1-2 hours and stiches are off after a week.
Why you need it
Large foreheads/High hairlines can be detrimental for a mans confidence, looks and proportions. While hair grafting is a good option for people experiencing genetic alopecia, Scalp advancement is the superior choice for moving the hairline down on non balding candidates. Hair grafting can't achieve the same amount of density and can in some cases lead to unnatural results and long recovery times.
Requirements
Many men won't be candidates for this procedure as you can't be suffering from genetic alopecia or have family history of balding if you're not willing to get on finasteride. You also need to be "Highly motivated" which everyone reading this most likely already is about looksmaxing.
Price and availability
Its not nearly as common as popular surgeries like Rhinoplasty, Hair grafting, Fillers or Botox. This also means its less commercial and more expensive than the most similar surgery of hair grafting. Prices range from 7-10k for western surgeons and can go as low as 2k in turkey.
Recovery Time
Unlike hair grafting the results are instant. However, you need to stay close to the clinic for at least a week while the stiches are healing, meaning you need to factor a long hotel stay into the price if you're traveling for the surgery. The scar will be mostly healed by month 3 and fully healed after 6 months to a year.
Results
Patient who had a prior botched hair transplant
A patient after one day
A patient after one month
A patient with a fully healed scar
