What procedure(s) can make my square forehead more round on both the front and side? (Photos)

flowerbird66Nov 21, 2018
I have a wide, square forehead with a low and prominent brow bone and dimples/wrinkles when I raise  my brows. I want my forehead and brows to look like the picture and I was wondering if burring down my brow bone or the sides and adding hair to the corners would give me the look I desire and how much it would cost. Is there any doctor in my state willing to do this procedure?

Thanks for sharing your photos.  Based on what you have drawn out, I think this is a very reasonable goal!  How much advancement I can get depends on how loose each patient's scalp is, and the only way to determine that is with an in person physical exam.  In general, I can usually advance the...

I think I understand what bothers you about the forehead. Forehead reduction to reduce the height of the forehead is possible and contouring the bone is also possible at the same time. I have done numerous forehead reductions with and without bone contouring but it is a very specialized proc...

The hairline can be lowered as much as the patient and surgeon desire  Having said that, if the scalp is tight an expander may be necessary to stretch the hair bearing skin before lowering the hairline and reducing the forehead.

You can round out your hairline with a hair transplantation surgery but to understand how it may actually look or to understand realistic expectations, you need to see a doctor in person and have this conversation.
