Does Age Affect The Ability To Do A Hairline Advancement?

Q: Dr. Eppley, Is it possible to reduce the forehead prominence and advance the hairline at the same time? Does the age factor affect the procedure?

A:It is common to do both at the same for a combined bony and soft tissue forehead excesses. Age has no factor in the success of the procedure. Rather the thickness of the frontal hone and the laxity/elasticity of the scalp are the determinants of a successful outcome
