The key to forehead reduction revision surgery

‘Limitations
depending on
individual
differences’

When analyzing the reasons for performing forehead reduction revision surgery, it is because the safe limit is not considered by analyzing scalp elasticity and hair condition depending on individual differences .

If forehead reduction is performed without considering individual differences, the skin may be pulled excessively or the wound may open, causing deep scars or hair loss.

How much can the forehead width be reduced?

Actual clinical cases of forehead reduction revision surgery

In case of reoperation (or when there is no scalp space), the surgery must be performed within a safe range without hair loss.
If your scalp lacks elasticity, it is safer to gradually reduce the width of your
forehead through revision surgery rather than reducing it significantly from the beginning.
To reduce scars after forehead reduction surgery, multiplanar forehead reduction surgery must be performed.

What remains after forehead reduction at another hospital

How to improve dark scars ?

01 A 45-degree incision is made along the hairline in a zigzag manner to protect hair follicles .
02 Delicately removes scars remaining on the skin and scalp.
03 It should fit comfortably without excessive tension on the scalp.
04 It is finished with delicate skin sutures that do not cave in.

When should I have revision forehead reduction surgery?

After at least 6 months to 1 year

Tissue stabilization is necessary for successful reoperation, which generally takes about 6 months to 1 year.
It is recommended to perform it after the tissue at the surgical site is stable, the scar at the surgical site is not hard, and the swelling has subsided.

As recovery speed and skin type vary from person to person, the recommended period for
reoperation may vary after sufficient consultation with a specialist,
and it is recommended that you decide on surgery after observing the progress .
