View the video examples that we encourage those considering hairline lowering to could make and e-mail that could help us determine whether one is a good candidate for a one stage hairline lowering / forehead reduction.

The movie shows what I think is good scalp flexibility on myself and my assistant surgeon.This would allow us to lower a hairline (if one has one) at least 2 and probably 2.5 cm. |
| Pinch Test – Type 1 | |
 |
 |
| Excellent – Scalp / forehead inch test which should allow about 3 cm of shortening of the forehead (lowering of the hairline) | |
| Pinch Test – Type 2 | |
 |
 |
| Good – Scalp / forehead pinch test for forehead / scalp flexibility. This amount should allow for 2-2.5 cm of shortening of the forehead (lowering of the hairline). | |
| Ruler Measurement Test | |
 While pressing down firmly, pull up on a point below hairline as high as possible and set that point of the fingertip at zero |
 Push fingertip as far downward as possible and take measurement of the movement. We like to see 2 cm or more of excursion |
