Surgery to Raise Eyebrows on a Flat Frontal Bone? (photo)
Hello, I was born with mild Craniosynostosis, and my plastic surgeon has erased close to all of my birth defects. According to my surgeon, my brain did not push out my forehead (i think) so I am left with eyebrows that almost touch my eyelashes. I think I have a flat frontal bone. I had 2 risky surgeries to correct this when I was younger but my eyebrows receded back into their old position. I think the surgery would improve the slight bulging of my eyes as well. I've attached pictures.

Browlift can raise eyebrows on a flat frontal bone
A brow lift can be performed to elevate the entire forehead. The incision is usually performed through a coronal approach, but will not help with the bulging of the eyes. The procedure will simply raise the eyebrows.

Surgery to Raise Eyebrows on a Flat Frontal Bone?
Minimally exposed photos are really no aid to answering the questions posed. In your case best to obtain in person evaluations from a crania facial plastic surgeon.
