Every possible method and technology are employed to achieve beauty

Forehead Reduction

Forehead reduction surgery delicately involves incising the hairline area, pulling and securing the scalp to reduce the length of the forehead.
This procedure adjusts a broad forehead to align with facial proportions, leaving minimal scarring by preserving hair follicles.

Nana’s Forehead

Reduction Surgery

Forehead reduction surgery addresses cases where the forehead
is broad with a high hairline. It shifts the hairline downward to achieve
an ideal forehead height. Unlike hair transplantation, results are
immediate, providing an effect where a previously elongated face
appears smaller.

Improvements in the

Temporal Line with Preservation

of Hair and Vellus Hair

Due to the angled incision, there is minimal damage to the hair
follicles, and surgical traces are discreet. Additionally, vellus hair
on the forehead is strategically retained, creating a natural hairline.

Hairline Adjustment

Lowering the hairline to the appropriate
position to achieve forehead reduction.
Correction of
Angular Lines

Not only reducing the forehead but
also correcting angular hairlines to
a more even and rounded form.

Sturdy Endotine

A robust Endotine, low skin tension
for secure hairline fixation, ensures
a safe and stable outcome in
forehead reduction surgery.
Triple Stitching Solution

Our triple stitching minimizes scarring,
ensuring swift recovery for patients to
experience procedure benefits sooner.

Use of Endotine

in Forehead Reduction

Endotine, an FDA and KFDA-approved eco-friendly tissue fixation
material, is crucial in this procedure. It features five protrusions that
evenly pull and securely fix skin tissues, providing stability in various
facial areas such as the forehead, eyebrows, and sagging eyelids.

Forehead Reduction
Surgery at Nana

Considering the forehead's proportion to the face,
the surgery contributes to achieving

a golden ratio of 1:1:0.8 for the upper, middle, and lower face.

01

Before the surgery, a thorough
consultation is conducted to ensure a
detailed discussion. The exact positions
for incisions and the desired corrected
line are meticulously designed based
on individual considerations.
02

To safeguard the supraorbital nerve and
minimize damage to hair follicles, the
incision site is angled diagonally. This
approach prioritizes the preservation of
critical structures, promoting a safer
and more effective surgical outcome.
03

Endotine, a secure fixation material, is
strategically placed in the forehead to
anchor it. This ensures stable and
secure fixation by gently pulling the
forehead toward it.
04

To conceal any visible scars, the
incision site is meticulously closed,
leaving no traces of a noticeable scar.
The careful stitching and closure
process contribute to a clean and
aesthetically pleasing finish.
