  7. MY HEAD IS ABNORMALLY...

My head is abnormally small, is there anything I can do to ever so slightly widen it? (Photo)

October 27, 2020
Asked By:Giving9281 in Australia, AU

Hi, my head circumference is 55 cm and I am 183 cm tall. Currently, my head looks extremely disproportionate and I would like to change my appearance so that I can better fulfill my job as a barrister. (Looks matter in court) I don't need it to be too much wider, just 1-2 cm wider would satisfy me. Is there any procedure that can help? Is there anything I can do? My bathroom is being renovated atm, the second image is altered to what I wish my head was. I am sorry for the mess. Would HGH work?

If possible, can I take out the 4 metal plates under my eye and over the ending of my eyebrow after my cheekbone heals? (Photo)
Benjamin C. Marcus, MD says:

 Often it is possible to remove the metal plates. Usually this is done only for infection, pain or plates becoming obvious under the skin.I doubt the plates are the cause for the eyelid differences.  I recommend to see an oculoplastic surgeon or facial plastic surgeon for evaluation.
