I have a dent in the middle of my forehead is it a tissue deficiency? Possible to fix with fat grafting?

These types of forehead soft tissue deficiencies are common, and can be improved with injectable fillers (the most predictable and reliable option for this area in my opinion), fat grafting, and other options like Sculptra. Fat grafting is a good option, but fat grafting can be somewhat unpredictable with respect to how much resorption occurs over time. An additional issue with fat grafting is the possibility of lumpiness or irregularities that may be difficult to correct post-operatively. There are risks and benefits of each procedure.Be sure to see an expert who specializes in facial aesthetic procedures to review all of the treatment options in detail.Best,

Hi Uri,Great question.  It is possible to place fat in the forehead, but you need an in-person evaluation with a fat grafting expert to see if this would be appropriate for your issue.  And yes, the improvement with fat grafting is permanent; however, bone and soft tissue changes over time as you age may necessitate additional treatments.Best wishes,Dr. Jay

Yes, this area can be treated with a variety of treatment options including fillers, fat, sculptra but there is higher risk of issues to this area. Please see an expert.  Best, Dr. Emer.
