AB The  forehead  extends  from  the  hairline  superiorly  to  the  eyebrows  inferiorly  and  merges  into  the  temple  laterally  at  the  temporal  fossa.  The  skin  of  the  forehead  is  moderately  sebaceous  and  varies  considerably  in  mobility  from  one  individual  to  another.  In  youth,  the  forehead  is  smooth.  With  age,  a  series  of  dynamic  horizontal  rhytides  appears.  There  is  considerable  variation  in  the  vertical  height  of  the  forehead,  with  some  individuals  having  a  very  low  hairline  and  others  having  a  higher  hairline  and  a  more  prominent  forehead  (Fig.  12.1).
