Do you find yourself adjusting your hair constantly, trying to cover a high forehead or a receding hairline? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep hiding behind bangs or camera filters. At Realbeauty Clinic, we specialize in one of the most transformative and underrated cosmetic procedures: forehead reduction surgery, designed to restore facial harmony, boost confidence, and bring out your inner radiance.

Welcome to the beauty of balance. Welcome to Realbeauty Clinic, Istanbul.

forehead reduction surgery

In recent years, Turkey has become a global capital for cosmetic excellence. From nose reshaping to hair transplants, people from every corner of the world now flock to Istanbul and beyond for affordable, safe, and state-of-the-art procedures.

And one procedure gaining rapid attention is forehead reduction surgery—also known as hairline lowering surgery.

But why?

  • Because it’s quick and highly effective.
  • Because it delivers dramatic yet natural results.
  • And because at Realbeauty Clinic, it’s performed with artistic precision and medical mastery.

What Is Forehead Reduction Surgery?

Forehead reduction surgery is a cosmetic surgical procedure that lowers the height of the forehead by moving the hairline forward. It is ideal for individuals who:

  • Have a naturally high forehead
  • Have genetically high or receding hairlines
  • Want to reduce the space between their brows and hairline
  • Feel that their forehead dominates their facial structure

The goal is to create better facial proportion, balance, and beauty symmetry—all without changing who you are.

It’s not about perfection. It’s about alignment.

The Science and Art Behind the Surgery

At Realbeauty Clinic, we don’t just perform forehead reduction. We design it like a sculptor would refine a statue.

Here’s how we do it:

Step 1: Precision Planning

Before surgery, your face is carefully examined. Our team maps out your:

  • Facial third ratios
  • Hair density and pattern
  • Skin and scalp flexibility
  • Desired new hairline location

We use 3D digital imaging to simulate your outcome and make sure you’re completely comfortable with the plan before moving forward.

Step 2: The Procedure

Performed under local anesthesia with sedation (or general anesthesia if preferred), the procedure generally takes 1.5 to 2.5 hours.

Here’s what happens:

  1. A zigzag incision is made along your existing hairline (this ensures a natural look once healed).
  2. A section of forehead skin is removed.
  3. The hair-bearing scalp is gently advanced forward to meet the new hairline.
  4. The incision is closed with fine, dissolvable stitches or surgical staples.

The result? A smaller, more balanced forehead—with scars that fade and vanish into the hairline over time.

Step 3: Recovery and Results

The recovery process is typically quick and smooth:

  • Day 1–2: Mild swelling or tightness (easily controlled with medication).
  • Day 3–5: Back to light activities; most patients feel normal.
  • Day 7: Sutures removed or dissolved.
  • Week 2: Hair begins growing back through the incision line.
  • Week 6–8: Final results start to take shape.
  • Month 3–6: Hair thickens, scar fades, and the new you is fully revealed.

The Emotional Impact: More Than Just Aesthetic

Forehead reduction isn’t just about appearance. For many of our clients, it’s deeply emotional and psychological.

They’ve spent years:

  • Hiding behind hairstyles
  • Feeling uncomfortable in photos
  • Facing jokes, comments, or internalized insecurities

After surgery, many describe feeling:

  • More feminine or masculine, depending on their goals
  • More proportionate and photogenic
  • Freer, without the burden of overthinking their forehead

It’s about liberation, not just transformation.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

If you’re wondering whether forehead reduction is right for you, consider these indicators:

✅ You have a large or high forehead and desire balance
✅ You’re in good general health
✅ You have thick hair with good density to help conceal the scar
✅ You’re emotionally ready for a change
✅ You’re not experiencing active hair loss (or planning to combine it with a hair transplant)

You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to want to feel like your best version.

Can It Be Combined With Other Procedures?

Absolutely. Many of our clients choose to pair forehead reduction with:

  • Brow lift (to elevate sagging eyebrows or open up the eyes)
  • Hair transplant (for even more density at the new hairline)
  • Blepharoplasty (eyelid lift for rejuvenated upper face)

We tailor each treatment plan to your specific goals, face shape, and budget.

Forehead Reduction FAQ

Will the scar be visible?

Not to the average eye. We use a zigzag incision that heals beneath the hairline. Once hair grows in, it’s practically invisible.

Is it painful?

You’ll be under anesthesia during the procedure, and we prescribe pain relief for after. Most clients report mild discomfort for 2–3 days.

What if I lose hair in the future?

We assess your hair density and risk of pattern baldness. If needed, we can combine the procedure with hair transplant for optimal long-term results.

How long do the results last?

The results are permanent. While your scalp may shift slightly with age, your new hairline remains stable for life.
