In cas you're already familiar with the MNE-Python suite (or not:) have a
look at

mne make_scalp_surfaces:
https://github.com/mne-tools/mne-python/blob/master/mne/commands/mne_make_scalp_surfaces.py

It generates a high-resulution head surfaces and 2 additional decimated
surfaces.
The medium surface is particularly satisfying and useful for coregistration.

Also have a look here:
