Create facial harmony with Surgical Hairline Advancement (SHA). At Facial Plastic Surgery Miami, Dr. Anthony Bared offers surgical hairline advancement to patients seeking a more balanced and proportionate appearance. This procedure—performed using the renowned Foundation Aesthetic Hair Restoration Method by Dr. J. Epstein —lowers a naturally high hairline to enhance facial symmetry. Known for producing incredibly natural-looking outcomes, Dr. Bared applies his artistic vision and surgical skill to help patients achieve long-lasting, refined results.

Lower the Hairline and Refine Your Proportions

SHA, sometimes referred to as forehead reduction surgery, is a specialized procedure that advances the hairline forward to reduce the visible height of the forehead. By repositioning the scalp and removing excess skin, this technique can lower the hairline by approximately 1 to 2 centimeters in one session. As a surgeon trained in the Foundation method, Dr. Bared ensures hair growth patterns are preserved, and the incision heals with minimal visibility.

Ideal Candidates for SHA May Include Those With:

A naturally high or broad forehead
Facial disproportion due to hairline position
Self-consciousness about forehead height
Scarring from previous hair procedures
Stable hairlines with no active hair loss
Hairline recession not caused by progressive alopecia
Forehead irregularities related to frontal fibrosing alopecia

Professional Affiliations & Contributions

What to Expect from the SHA Procedure

Most patients return home the same day following your forehead reduction in Miami. During your personalized consultation at Facial Plastic Surgery Miami, Dr. Bared will assess your scalp elasticity, hairline stability, and aesthetic goals to determine your suitability for the procedure. SHA is typically performed under local or general anesthesia. Dr. Bared begins with a trichophytic incision along the natural hairline, allowing new hair to grow through the incision for a discreet finish.

He carefully advances the scalp forward and removes a tailored strip of forehead skin. The hair-bearing portion is then repositioned and secured. The incision is closed using precise techniques to protect nearby hair follicles, helping ensure the final result blends naturally with your existing hairline.

SHA Recovery: What You Need to Know

Most patients return home the same day following hairline lowering in Miami. Mild swelling or discomfort around the forehead is normal and can be managed with medication. You’ll receive detailed post-op care instructions from Dr. Bared to support optimal healing.

Patients typically resume light activities within a few days. Sutures are removed about a week later, and visible signs of surgery diminish significantly over the next few weeks. Thanks to the trichophytic incision, hair grows through the healing site, making the final result impressively discreet.

Aftercare Tips for a Smooth Recovery

Use cold compresses if advised
Do not wash your hair until cleared by Dr. Bared

Follow Dr. Bared’s aftercare instructions carefully
Avoid heavy lifting, bending, or strenuous activities for at least one week
Sleep with your head elevated to reduce swelling

Protect the area from sun exposure
