Result of hairline lowering surgery to repair frontal fibrosing alopecia.
In order to restore the elevated hairline that was the result of frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA), this patient underwent hairline advancement surgery. This involved advancing her unaffected hairline forward, permitting the removal of the scarred frontal scalp. Because she had poor scalp mobility, in this case a balloon expander was used.
Hairline lowering surgery performed as a reparative procedure on a patient who was disappointed with the results of a hair transplant done elsewhere, so she underwent hairline lowering/forehead reduction surgery where the entire prior grafted area was removed and her own natural hairline was brought down and forward by almost one inch. She is shown before and three weeks after.
