Hey everyone,
i had jaw/chin and forehead surgery in april with a local ffs doctor and i am not really satisfied with the result, the forehead bone work looks oke but they only lowered my hairline 1 cm and i think the could have set back my bone more.Also the jaw and chin work is oke but i think it was just not agrassive enough.So i am looing for a revision in a couple of months and i am debating to go the another ffs doctor to have it revised all at one or to break it up. I think that for the jaw and chin work i would prefer to go to Korea and for the hairline i really like dr gal aharonov in LA he seems to able to lower the hairline much more anyone every went to him? Would like to hear your opnions

Dear Danielle,
I would say high about 7,5 cm measured from above the eyes, but it runs in the family my sister also had a high hairline

Dear sh1982
Hmmm... 7.5 cm above top of the eyes or eyebrows?

Hmmm... And how's the shape of your hairline? Is it an "M" or more round like the upper part of an "O"?

Dear sh1982
Perfect! That's a good starting point... :D
Are you able to move your hairline with your fingers even more down toward your eyes? And how much approx. ? Or do you have endotines in which are preventing a moving?
Cheers... :)

Dear Danielle,
There is some flexibility but it is kinda weird to do because i am still numb in the area, the skin just before the hairline is more flexible i would say 1 cm to 1,5 but everything is still a bit stiff because of the previous surgery and i dont want to push it to much

Dear sh1982
That's perfect... Absolutely no need tu push it more! This should be enough to work with!
Well... I would wait a little bit more to see how everything settles down. And after you're sure about the hairline you can go to a surgeon which can do nice hairlines.
It's so sad to read it over and over again, that some surgeons or teams are so incredible conservative... For me it seems, that some of them are so scared to do the job right in the beginning, that the do it in a way that the result is not satisfying and has to be redone... And that costs a lot of many, time and last but not least a lot of tears and power! However... luckily there are also others... :D
And I think in your case the 1.5 cm would be absolutely fine, so that a good surgeon can do the trick.
Cheers... :D
