APEX Forehead Reduction Reducing the width of the forehead to suit your facial proportions creates a naturally smaller, more youthful-looking face. Stand tall even on a windy day! An incision is made along the hairline and the scalp is drawn toward the forehead and finely sutured, shortening a wide forehead to match each patient's scalp elasticity and facial proportions for an overall balanced, youthful face. Satisfaction is high because the forehead is reduced immediately after surgery while an angular or uneven hairline can be corrected at the same time. The beveled incision along the hairline causes almost no damage to the hair follicles, and once the hair grows back the incision line is barely visible, easing concerns about scarring. If you can't give up your bangs to hide a wide forehead, forehead reduction is the answer! For an ideal forehead that brings the face into balance! APEX's forehead reduction reduces a wide forehead through a hairline incision while minimizing follicle damage, improving facial proportions and balance. Preserving the follicles near the hairline lets new hair grow in to conceal the scar.

Prologue

In this surgery an incision is made along the hairline and the scalp is drawn toward the forehead and closed with fine sutures, shortening a broad forehead in line with your scalp elasticity and facial proportions for an overall balanced, youthful face. The forehead is reduced immediately after surgery and an angular or uneven hairline can be corrected at the same time, which patients find very satisfying. The beveled incision along the hairline causes almost no damage to the follicles, and once the hair grows back the incision line is barely visible, so scarring is less of a concern.

Surgery

APEX forehead reduction method

How is APEX forehead reduction performed?

Once the amount of reduction and the incision line are decided, the hairline is incised and the scalp drawn forward to narrow the forehead.
Hair later grows over the incision, hiding the hairline scar and easing the burden.

Before surgery Out of proportion with the face,
A wide forehead
Hairline incision — the incision line marked along the front hairline
