Honest information
As with any surgical procedure, hairline lowering surgery involves certain risks, although most are manageable and temporary.
Swelling and bruising
Common post-surgery effects, typically subside within 1–2 weeks.
Temporary numbness
Normal along the incision line, generally resolves within a few months.
Scarring
Incision lines may leave visible scars, which fade over time and can be concealed by hair.
Infection
Rare, minimized through sterilization and post-operative antibiotics.
Hair loss at incision site
Temporary shedding of hair around the incision site, usually resolves as healing progresses.
If something concerns you at home
