Side Effects of Hairline-Lowering Surgery. The scar, depending on your skin type, the scar can remain visible for months, but towards the end of your journey, it will be less noticeable to others. We advise you to stay out of the sun to help the scar and the healing process.

The loss of sensation of touch is another side effect; we have sensory nerves running from our eyebrows all the way across our forehead to the top of our head. As a consequence of hairline-lowering surgery, you lose the sensation of touch, and the top of your scalp feels numb. Don’t worry, this lasts only for a couple of months, and 3-4 months after surgery, the sensations begin to return.
