Forehead Reduction Before and After Photos Korea
Forehead reduction, also called hairline lowering, shortens a tall forehead by removing a strip of skin below the hairline and moving the scalp forward. It changes proportion; it does not lift the brows.

What to look at in these photos
- The height of the forehead relative to the middle and lower face.
- The shape of the new hairline, which should follow a natural curve.
- The hairline scar, which is designed so hair grows through and in front of it.
When the result settles
Stitches usually come out at around 7–10 days. Swelling peaks in the first week and settles over 2–6 weeks, while the scar and any numbness keep improving over 3–12 months.
Lighting, angle and the time since surgery all change how a photo looks, so compare like with like.
Frequently asked questions
How much can the hairline be lowered?
Most people gain about 1–3 cm. The limit is how far the scalp can move forward safely, which Dr. Kim assesses at consultation.
Will I lose hair along the scar?
Some temporary shedding near the incision can happen in the first weeks and usually regrows within a few months. Permanent hair loss along the scar is uncommon.
Is forehead reduction the same as a forehead lift?
No. Forehead reduction lowers the hairline to shorten the forehead. A forehead lift raises the brows and can make the forehead look slightly taller.
