Doctors and Surgeons around! Thanks for answering. I had this bump on my forehead since I was like around 7 years old, I fell on tile. Didn't bother me over the years until I was in 7th grade and just ignored it again. Now turning 18 in 2 months I'm just hating it more cosmetically and worried it might affect me as an adult. I'm thinking it could a cyst or some kind of bone fracture, maybe a blood clog! Help!

Answer: Forehead lump removal the Edelson procedure these are pretty common. It is known as an Osteoid Osteoma. It can be removed by filing it down through a small incision behind the hairline. I have done several of these under local anesthesia and it takes about fifteen minutes. the cost is about $2000 to $2500. if removed endoscopically expect the price to be double that easily. I had a girl from another city was quoted 10,000 to remove.

Answer: Treatment of bump on forehead? The treatment for this will depend on what it is. It could be a cyst, osteoma, or excess bone from trauma, etc. We would need to have x-rays of this area to determine what it is and then take the appropriate treatment. I have removed many of these in the past and most turned out to be excess bone tissue which needs to be shaved.

Answer: Can I get rid of the bump on my forehead? In most cases, this is either a lipoma or an osteoma. Both can be removed during a brief in office procedure under local anesthesia. In most cases, osteomas can be removed with an incision hidden at the hairline while lipomas are removed with an incision sitting in a forehead crease overlying the lump.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon
