Ten years ago, I recieved an injury to my forehead, which resulted in a bump forming in the middle of it. This left me with a huge, but painless bruise on my forehead. When I touch it feels like some rubbery substance caught in between my skin and skull. It is unsightly and impacts greatly on my overall facial image. I was wondering what procedures are available out there for me to have a normal flat forehead without resulting in a scar? I was wondering if liposuction could be an option?
Answer: This could possibly be a lipoma due to the trauma caused to your head Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis for most deep scars. The options available for acne scars depend on the character of your scars, in terms of topography and contour. We see atrophic and hypertrophic acne scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. We begin each scar evaluation with an assessment of scar quality and subtype. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to decide whether early subcision should be started.

Answer: Forehead osteoma Injury to the periosteum can lead to forehead osteomas and lipomas. Forehead osteomas and lipomas represent a common benign lesion found on the forehead. When visible, it can be distressing to the patient. While there are a variety of methods to remove these lesions, endoscopic approach with a single incision is the best. I utilize a small incision with specialized instruments specific for osteoma removal of the forehead, which allows me to perform this procedure comfortably in an in-office setting. Many patients can return to work in days rather than weeks with an incision conveniently hidden in the scalp.
