Forehead width and shape
tailored to balance your facial harmony!

Reduces forehead width to suit your facial proportions
and creates a sophisticated image with a neat hairline.

Prologue

The principle works by designing the hairline into the desired shape, making an incision, shifting it downward, and excising excess forehead skin to reduce a wide forehead. By correcting the hairline's position to complement facial proportions and features, it achieves a natural forehead width and shape. Using a 45-degree incision technique that preserves the hair roots along the hairline, new hair can later grow through the scar, minimizing its visibility. Additionally, it offers a faster recovery than hair transplantation, with the distinct advantage of allowing immediate assessment of the reduced forehead width.

Forehead Reduction and Hairline Correction

By reducing a wide forehead and correcting the hairline into a rounded shape,
we create a forehead that matches your facial proportions.

Ideal Proportions

By applying the facial golden ratio, we find the ideal facial proportions suited to each individual.
Rather than simply shortening the forehead length, it transforms your face into a smaller, more refined look considering overall facial balance.

How?

Forehead Reduction

How is the surgery performed?

Considering individual facial proportions and scalp elasticity, the forehead height can be tailored appropriately.
An incision is made along the hairline to remove excess forehead skin, and the scalp is pulled forward to reduce forehead width.

After Surgery

After advancing the scalp forward,
a designated amount of overlapping skin is excised.

The posterior flap is pulled and secured,
then sutured meticulously to minimize scarring.

The wide forehead is reduced,
creating a well-balanced forehead.

Fixation Method Using Endotine

Using Endotine lowers the chance of recurrence and shortens surgery time.

While periosteal fixation using absorbable sutures through tunneling has the disadvantage of potential recurrence as the periosteum gradually tears from tension, Endotine disperses the force across its 5 prongs, resulting in far less tearing of the periosteum over time and backward slippage (the cheese-wiring effect).
