Forehead augmentation, bone burring (Photo)

October 11, 2017
Asked By:AussieGal84 in Australia, AU

Due to plagiocelphaly, my forehead (as well as other facial assymetry) is very uneven. One bone sticks out higher than the other. Is it possible I could burr this down to sit more flush with the other side. I also have shadows where the bones are like to round circles (but uneven due to the plagio). Could that be shaved down too? Here are two picture of my forehead when I lay down, so you can see the difference in height. One photo is the shadowing cast by the bones.
