Forehead reduction, finally!!

I am SO happy with my results!! My scar is fading so nicely, I really don’t need makeup to cover it anymore and still not a single person has noticed that I did anything. I’m really happy with the height because I still look like myself! It’s now big enough that I still look like me but not so big that I’m ever uncomfortable or self conscious anymore. I hope that makes sense!

All of the numbness is completely gone at this point, the bald and thin spots have already filled back in, and it’s looking more rounded and natural as the scar fades. There are only a couple things that are annoying. First, the little hairs along the incision are now about 3 inches long so I have a bunch of awkward fuzzies that won’t lay correctly with the rest of my hair lol. (They don’t look so bad in these photos but some days they are very stubborn and stick straight up.) The other thing is that there were a couple spots in the center of my scar that became irritated and ingrown over and over, never healing. This was an issue until about 3 weeks ago and I’m pretty sure it finally healed because I stopped wearing HATS! That little seam on the inside of all my hats must have been pressing too hard on it while it tried to heal.
Otherwise everything is great and I feel like a whole new woman! It’s been very windy and I even went swimming the other day when it was nice. I no longer have to worry about a giant forehead weighing down my self esteem. Thank you SO much Dr. Aharonov!

It’s been a while since my last update, things are going great! The scar is getting so much better every week. The first 6 of these photos are from now at 10 weeks, the last two are from about two weeks ago. At this point it’s looking good enough to go out in public without covering it, but I still wouldn’t hang out with friends or work with it showing. It’s SUPER easy and fast to disguise with a bit of makeup (I just mix a dab of concealer and foundation and use a small brush to apply it.). Not a single person has seemed to notice, not even my close girlfriends, so I’m really happy. I feel that it’s perfect because I basically look the same with my hair down but don’t need styled side bangs to cover it BUT I can now pull my hair completely back in a ponytail and flip it, move it, etc and feel ‘normal’ and beautiful. No more insecurity or obsession with covering it. Hallelujah!!
There’s still a tiny bit of wave/puckering left but you can only see it in specific lighting. The side incisions are still the slightest bit tender to the touch but I can sleep perfectly fine now (no pain or soreness when I wake up). The only thing that’s kind of annoying right now is the spiky 1-2” hairs that have grown through the incision since the surgery. Not a big deal but it looks funny with my hair back. Oh! And thankfully the thin spots never got any worse so I’m just waiting for them to fill back it.
I’m really happy and satisfied with my results! Comment or message me if you have any questions :)

Hi everyone! I hope my updates are helping. It’s about 1 month post op and things are going great! My incision is healing well and I’m using Tend Skin (and careful with a fine tip tweezer) to help with ingrowns. There’s still a bit of denting in my forehead but it’s not too noticeable. The only negative is that I have seen a lot more hair coming out in the shower and when I comb it out, so it makes me not want to wash it as much! I just looked at my side incisions and that’s where it’s coming from, there are little bald patches along it. Annoying but not too bad since those are also easy to cover. I’m taking my vitamins/Biotin every day, eating well etc so hopefully it’s just a short phase.
On to today; I actually styled my hair (I’ve been wearing hats, beanies, headbands to go places and no styling at home) and used a little makeup on the incision, and holy crap it’s so gorgeous!! :D
I left the house and felt SO confident and SO beautiful. I feel like my face is finally perfectly balanced and there’s nothing to be insecure about anymore. It’s amazing how a small adjustment can have such a huge impact on my confidence. I would recommend this (and especially Dr. Aharonov) to anyone who has struggled with this insecurity. This is life changing!
