Forehead Reduction at our newly renovated day-surgery united located at 101 Harley Street, Marylebone, London.
This creates a more balanced facial proportion and enhances overall harmony across the upper face.
Located in the heart of Harley Street, London, our surgical centre is equipped with advanced facilities to ensure safety, precision, and a natural result that complements your unique facial features.


Forehead reduction surgery lowers the height of the forehead by advancing the scalp and repositioning the hairline.
This reduces the appearance of a high or disproportionately large forehead, creating improved symmetry and facial balance.
The procedure is frequently chosen by patients who:
Have a naturally high hairline
Feel their forehead appears longer than desired
Want to enhance feminine facial proportions
Seek harmony between the forehead, eyebrows, and hairline
Prefer a surgical alternative to long-term hair transplantation

Doctor Dan Wright is not only one of the kindest and nicest human beings you could ever meet he’s one of the most professional. At every stage of my procedure I felt reassured and in very safe hands. I would not normally post a review of anything that isn’t a restaurant or a barber but I felt compelled to here because my experience was so wonderful. Fantastic stuff. Brilliant.
I recently had surgery at 101 Harley Street and was impressed by the level of care and professionalism displayed by the entire team.

Dr Dan and his team at 101 are exceptional. I was made to feel so comfortable and relaxed during my procedure and everything is done with the highest level of professionalism. Can’t recommend them enough!
Staff were all extremely kind and thoughtful all through the process. I always come away feeling like I’ve had the best chat with good friends over a delicious coffee in a gorgeous spot. And all the while… also leaving with healthier skin. I’ve loved working with Emma and Duncan and everyone else at 101!
I had a procedure recently at 101 and I’m so happy with how it went! The staff and the consultant were super friendly and made me feel safe and welcome. The results of my procedure are fantastic and I will recommend to all of my friends and family.
