Forehead Reduction Surgery
From 6,000,000 KRW/ procedure
One-line summary: Forehead reduction at Luho Plastic Surgery is a customized procedure designed to naturally improve the appearance of a broad forehead by considering each individual’s facial proportions and hairline. Key benefits: By reducing the vertical length of the forehead, it may create the appearance of a smaller face while preserving the existing hairline for a natural, balanced impression. Procedure/technique: After carefully analyzing individual scalp laxity, hair direction, and facial proportions, the hairline is designed and the procedure is performed meticulously to minimize the incision line and tissue trauma. Recovery/precautions: Temporary swelling, bruising, and tightness may occur after surgery. During the recovery period, it is important to avoid irritating the incision area and to follow the medical team’s instructions for consistent postoperative care.

What makes Luho Forehead Reduction Surgery special
STEP 1 Customized Forehead Design
After designing the hairline to suit facial proportions, an intricate Incisional method is performed in a zigzag pattern on the scalp to minimize damage to the hair follicles.
STEP 2 Hair Follicle Preservation
To allow hair to grow without damage, the Incisional method is made at a 45-degree diagonal angle, taking the hair follicles and direction of hair growth into consideration to protect the follicles.
STEP 3 Supraorbital Nerve Preservation
*A - Frontalis muscle / B - Supraorbital nerve
During the hairline Incisional method, the supraorbital nerve, which maintains sensation, is preserved to reduce pain and sensory impairment.
STEP 4 Enhanced Fixation
*A - Direction of separation / B - Direction of fixation
To prevent the pulled skin from returning to its original position, Endotine is used to secure it precisely to the periosteum.
