id Hospital - Forehead Reduction - Wide Forehead Before

When the forehead is too wide, it disrupts the overall balance of the face and gives an unharmonious impression.
id Hospital's forehead reduction surgery analyzes each individual's facial shape and
designs a harmonious forehead line, considering both the frontal and side views.

A beautiful forehead line from every 360° angle

Hidden-Scar Forehead Reduction

45° incision against the hair growth!Less root damage, zero scar concerns.
By incising at a 45° angle against the hairline, hair root damage is minimized and new hair growth naturally conceals any scars.
Suturing with
Fascia Extension Technique!Reduced scalp tension,
zero wound separation concerns.
By relaxing and extending the posterior scalp fascia during suturing, the wide forehead and uneven hairline are brought forward, maintaining the original hair length, density, and baby hairs without hair transplantation.
Since scalp tension remains low, forehead pulling and wound separation are minimized.
Wave-shaped incision
along the hairline!No unnatural look,
no wound separation or scar concerns.
Wave-shaped incisions within the hairline make scars barely visible and reduce the risk of wound separation.

AGenerally, you can be discharged on the same day for cheekbone reduction surgery. In many cases, patients who undergoes surgery in the morning, can wake up from anesthesia and return home alone in the afternoon. However, when going home, do not bend your head or bow down when sleeping. It is good for decreasing your swelling and pain, and use of a fluffy pillow to support yourself in an upright position.

AThe facial bones do not grow after the growth period is over. In addition, cheekbone reduction surgery is a procedure in which the protruding cheekbone itself is moved inward and fixed to a new position, so you can rest assured that the cheekbones size will not increase again after surgery.

AIn case of cheekbone reduction surgery where your bone is completely cut, pins are needed to tightly fix the skin tissue and muscles and make them heal faster between the bones. Three months after the surgery, the bone is fully healed and firmly bonded as before the operation. The pins are made of metals for surgery and treatment — same material used for teeth implants.

ANormally, in case of mini v-line surgery and cheekbone reduction surgery, it is possible to get discharged the same day according to the patient's condition. 2 to 3 days after surgery, it is possible to resume normal activities. Major level of swelling and bruises may last for 3 to 5 weeks, and minor swelling lasts from 3 to 6 months.

AFirst of all, it is important to accurately analyze the shape of the cheekbones before surgery. At surgery, cheekbones are shaved based on the diagnosis. Depending on the skin elasticity of the person, an additional lifting procedure may also be recommended so the tissues are lifted together to give a lifting effect.

AIn case of cheekbone reduction surgery where your bone is completely cut, pins are needed to tightly fix the skin tissue and muscles and make them heal faster between the bones. It does not matter if you go through an airport search or CT or MRI.
