forhead implants sounds risky so if someone has a flat forehead and wants to correct it can injections be used instead? would the results be good through injections?
Answer: Forehead Contouring? Consider Sculptra
In situations where forehead contouring is desired,Sculptra, a synthetic bio-polymer can be utilized. Sculptra in this circumstance is injected in a plane just above the bone, stimulating collagen growth and subsequent volume to the desired area. The aesthetic benefits of Sculptra last about 2 years.

Answer: Forehead contouring with injections or an implant.
Implants are not "risky" if the surgeon is familiar with them. The main risk which is low is that of infection. This would require the removal of the implant. If someone has a smaller area to contour, fillers such as Radiesse or fat can give good results.

Answer: Flat Forehead: Can Injections Be Used Instead of a Forehead Implant Our foreheads, like most facial and body regions, tend to be asymmetric with respect to height, width and contour. Furthermore asymmetry tends to get worse with age--- as facial aging is in large part facial bone loss and facial fat pad atrophy. Implants can create pressure effects on the soft tissues of the forehead, like the chin, leading to accelerated atrophy of the bone and soft tissues. Fat grafting can be customized to the forehead, accurately minimizing asymmetry as well as enhancing the appearance of adjacent structures, especially the brows and nose.Finally, with more than 20 years personal experience, and the publication of recent studies, it appears that successfully transplanted fat can slow facial bone aging---via stem cells or growth factors.Hope this helps
