Introduction to Forehead Reduction Surgery

Forehead reduction surgery, also known as hairline lowering, is a specialized procedure designed to decrease the vertical height of the forehead by advancing the hairline. It is an effective solution for individuals who feel their forehead appears disproportionately large in relation to the rest of their facial features.
At 8 West Clinic, this procedure is performed with a meticulous focus on both aesthetic and technical detail. Our surgeons evaluate factors such as hair density, scalp flexibility, and facial structure to determine the ideal hairline position. The result is a natural transition between the forehead and scalp that looks authentic — never artificial or overly altered.
With extensive expertise in facial aesthetics and reconstructive techniques, our team prioritizes outcomes that enhance harmony while preserving individuality. From consultation through recovery, patients receive comprehensive guidance and care, ensuring a safe experience and results that are both subtle and transformative.

All my expectations were exceeded and have no regrets with my decision to proceed. My procedure was an exciting and rewarding experience . My post-op healing went exceedingly well as I followed all the detailed instructions that I was meticulously given. Very best wishes to Dr. Buonassisi and staff.

I have had a number of different procedures from this clinic and each one has been exactly what I was hoping for. Dr. Buonassisi in particular is fabulous. He is honest, direct, careful and beyond knowledgeable. I can't express how positively going to this clinic has changed my life.

There are places that should be an example to others in its business niche. 8 West Surgery clinic has its stars for a reason. Impeccable customer service: easy to reach and exceptionally professional. Dr. BUONASSISI voted best for a reason. You know you are in great hands once you meet him.

Better than the face I was born with! After much research, I chose Dr. B because he specializes in facial surgery. Five months post surgery, I can say that I am thrilled with the results! If you are thinking about a facelift, I highly recommend you have a consultation with Dr. B!
