Some people naturally have very big foreheads. And since balanced facial features enhance the beauty of one’s face, a big forehead might be seen as something that throws off the balance in one’s facial proportions. Furthermore, in some cultures, a large forehead is seen as a sign of beauty, but in others, such as Asian culture, small foreheads are seen as the standard of beauty. In any case, the big forehead surgery is an effective procedure to reduce the size of the forehead and rejuvenate the overall face. Keep reading to find out how the Forehead reduction surgery in Turkey can help restore facial balance.
😌 Why Consider Forehead Reduction Surgery?
Some people have higher foreheads than others, and the forehead reduction surgery shortens this height, making the overall forehead smaller. People can have large foreheads for a number of reasons. Some just genetically have very big foreheads, while others go through significant hair loss that could cause this. Furthermore, a forehead that is too big can make one look more aged. In any case, the hairline-lowering surgery can bring balance and harmony to the overall facial proportions.
The Rule of Thirds
According to the Rule of thirds, the face is divided into three horizontal thirds, all of which are equal. This is an effective method to bring balance to one’s face. According to this, the forehead should make up one-third of the overall height of the face. However, many people are not born with proportions of this sort. So, the Forehead Reduction Surgery is a great treatment for a large forehead.

Who Is a Good Candidate?
So, who is the ideal candidate for this aesthetic forehead surgery in Turkey? The answer is below:
- People who have a high forehead naturally.
- Individuals who have good skin laxity are required for the surgery to be successful.
- Those who are healthy and in good shape.
- Individuals with a secure hairline and no hair loss issues.
- Patients who are realistic about their expectations from the outcomes of the Forehead Reduction Surgery.
What to Expect During the Forehead Reduction Process
The Forehead Reduction Surgery helps with both male and female hairline lowering, as the surgery aims to lower the hairline by a few centimeters.
Consultation and Planning
The consultation stage includes the surgeon carrying out a facial analysis to plan the extent of the reduction of the forehead. The surgeon will also decide the position of the hairline based on the natural contours of the forehead. Furthermore, a detailed analysis is also done of the medical history of the patients, as well as a physical examination of the scalp to determine if the skin has sufficient flexibility.
The Surgical Procedure: Step-by-Step
The surgeon first marks the hairline and the part of the forehead where the incision is meant to be. Furthermore, the surgeon ensures that no nerves are affected by the incision when it is made.
Next, the surgeon numbs the whole forehead with local anesthesia and makes the incision where the markings were previously. The surgeon then eliminates the area of the forehead that was marked.
The incision made close to the hairline is pulled lower to connect with the incision of the forehead. This makes the forehead shorter than before. The next step is to suture the incision. During this, the surgeon makes sure that the resulting scar is minimal and will be easily concealed in the hair.
🟥 Since the patient is asleep during the procedure, there is no pain. Moreover, this procedure can take anywhere from one to three hours to finish.
This procedure, however, does not give any lift to the eyebrows. In order to raise eyebrows, this procedure can be combined with an eyebrow lift.
Recovery Timeline
The recovery from the Forehead Surgery is a fairly straightforward process. The patient can leave to go home just a couple of hours after the surgery. However, attending regular post-surgery check-ups with the surgeon is essential to allow for an expert observation of the healing of the incision and overall surgery site.
The initial 24-48 hours can be a little uncomfortable due to swelling and bruising in the general forehead area. The patient is instructed to wear a compression bandage to reduce swelling. Furthermore, the patient is prescribed pain medication to minimize discomfort.
The medical professionals will guide the patient on how to keep the incision clean and properly care for it to ensure its rapid healing. Additionally, the doctor will guide the patient on how to reduce the chances of infection in the incision and how to effectively manage any pain or discomfort.
Weeks 2 to 4 will involve a significant reduction in swelling, which is why the patient can return to their routine work.
🟥 The long-term results appear after 6 months to a year post-surgery since at this point, there is more hair growth in the area, and the contours of the new forehead become more visible.
