Can a failed frontal bossing reduction be fixed? The frontal area is now hollow and uneven.

Question

Male. 21 years old. My surgeon tried to fix it with hyaluronidase injection, now its completely messed up. I want my forehead back like before or that it would be fixed. I cannot live normally with this ugly/hollow forehead.

Thank you for your question.There are facial implants made of medpor, silicone, or titanium mesh that can be used to re-establish a normal facial contour. Another alternative is to continue with dermal fillers. You may likely benefit from a filler that is placed deeper, such as Radiuses which is made of calcium hydroxyapatite. This would last 1-2 years instead of 6 months. I hope this helps.- Dr. Bryson Richards

Dear BraboSorry to hear about your failed result.  This can be improved by using an implant to fill in the space.There are solid implants of silicone that can be shaped to fill in the defect.  This would require anincision along the hairline.  There are skin grafts obtained from the skin bank to fill in the defect. Either of these would be a relatively short outpatient procedure to give you a nice result.Please see a board certified plastic surgeon for more information.  Good luck.Dr. Tony Musarra
