Hairline Lowering
Lower a high or receded hairline by 1–4 cm in a single sitting.
Hairline lowering can be done two ways: surgically (forehead reduction — a strip of forehead skin is excised and the hairline advanced) or via transplantation (FUE/DHI grafts to create a lower hairline). RenovaAura usually recommends transplant-based lowering for its scarless result.

Patient questions, answered honestly.
Transplant for most — surgical forehead reduction works faster but leaves a thin scar along the hairline. We'll review both options at consultation.
