Can you tell me a bit more information on hairline lowering foreheadplasty

Q. Can you tell me a bit more information on hairline lowering foreheadplasty. how the procedure works/ how long does it take? is it permanent? how much? thanks

A. Thank you for your enquiry.  The hairline lowering foreheadplasty is performed under a general anaesthetic either as a daycase or overnight stay.  The procedure take 1 1/2 hours.  A zigzag incision is made in the existing hairline and the hairbearing scalp is lifted and moved forward to the desired position.  this is held in place using the Endotine Forehead implants (like carpet grips) to prevent the hairline being pulled back.  The desire position is market on the forehead and the excess skin removed. The incision is closed with fine sutures which are removed in 7 days.  A small drain is inserted under the scalp which is removed before discharge.  The procedure is permanent.  The cost is in the region of £4500. An accurate quotation will be provided following your consultation.  Please call Anne or Kirstie on 0845 009 2775 or email kirstie@lbps.co.uk who will be happy to arrange your consultation for you.Best regards
