Who is considered a good candidate for Forehead Reduction Surgery?
A person who has a high hairline or an excessively broad forehead and is normally in good health is a good candidate for forehead reduction surgery.
You should be in sound physical and mental condition, and you should have reasonable expectations for how the procedure will turn out.
To determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure, you must speak with a licensed and skilled cosmetic surgeon.
The following traits make a person a good candidate for surgery to reduce the size of the forehead:
Extremely High Hairline: A common reason people have forehead reduction surgery is because of their excessively high hairline. Anyone who has an excessively high hairline and wants to bring it forward to give their face a more proportionate and balanced appearance is a good candidate for this surgery.
Realistic Expectations: Candidates must have reasonable expectations about the outcome of the surgery. Although forehead reduction surgery can make the forehead look better, the size or contour of the face as a whole cannot be entirely altered.
Good Physical Health: Candidates for forehead reduction surgery should be in good physical condition and free of any serious illnesses that could impact the procedure’s success.
Good mental health: Emotional stability, a positive approach, and reasonable expectations for the procedure are requirements for candidates.
Non-smoker: Smoking raises the possibility of problems both during and following surgery. Therefore, smokers should be willing to give up smoking at least two weeks before and after the treatment if they are interested in having a forehead reduction surgery.
Adequate Hair Density: A candidate for forehead reduction surgery should have enough hair to cover the incision sites and produce a hairline that looks natural.
If forehead reduction surgery is the best choice, it can be determined during a consultation with a licensed cosmetic surgeon.
