Planning the aesthetic foreheadplasty

Different approaches to aesthetic foreheadplasty have been thoroughly described and well documented. However, there has been a paucity of information in the literature describing indications for the various approaches. We detail our approach to planning the foreheadplasty; most commonly, we opt for the anterior forehead-hairline approach. We believe that proper patient selection with regard to anatomical, aesthetic, and physiological factors is of the greatest importance in planning an aesthetic foreheadplasty.
