In aesthetics..

The scalp plays an important role in the aesthetics of the face. Androgenic alopecia, or male pattern hair loss, is a common cause of concern to men. It may be treated by medication (eg finasteride, minoxidil) or hair transplantation with variable success. If the scalp is heavy and loose, a common change with aging, the forehead may be low, heavy and deeply lined. The brow lift procedure aims to address these concerns. The scalp is a common site for the development of tumours. Innervation is the connection of nerves to the scalp; the sensory and motor nerves innervating the scalp.
