Bump on Forehead. How Can I Get It Removed Without a Scar?
asked 1 year ago by jganer in Georgia

Question viewed 1,927 times
Tags: forehead, bump
Ten years ago, I recieved an injury to my forehead, which resulted in a bump forming in the middle of it. This left me with a huge, but painless bruise on my forehead. When I touch it feels like some rubbery substance caught in between my skin and skull. It is unsightly and impacts greatly on my overall facial image. I was wondering what procedures are available out there for me to have a normal flat forehead without resulting in a scar? I was wondering if liposuction could be an option?

Removal of forehead lump without visible scar possible
Dear jganer - Depending on the cause of the lump it might be possible to remove without a visible scar. If this were an osteoma (does not sound like this based on your description) an incision behind the hairline can be used to remove it. If this is a cystic mass, like my colleagues have described, I would agree that removal would require a scar on the forehead but if you have forehead wrinkles the scar heals quite well.

Bump on forehead
Without an exam, it would be difficult to tell you. You may need other diagnostic studies to figure out what the bump is.

Very hard to diagnose over the internet and without a photo. Seek in person opinions. But I doubt you can remove or improve without surgery and an incision.
