19 year old male with possible frontal eminence - how can I get a uniform and more slanted forehead? (photos)

Question

My hairline starts about 2.25in above the eyebrows. From the eyebrows up, about about an inch and a half of my forehead is slightly slanted backwards, maybe 5-10 degrees from being totally vertical. After 1.5in, the upper part of my forehead curves back into an angle where it is maybe 20-30 degrees from being vertical. I would love to be able to make my visible forehead flat and more slanted overall, shaving off my frontal eminences or whatever’s causing this awkward shape. Is this possible?

I am not sure, based on these photos, that you need forehead shaping? Only on the basis of in person consultation a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in forehead shaping/lift may give you better advise and options. Good luck.

Hello, All issues you mentioned about your forehead can be addressed to forehead reduction surgery with Piezo technique in the right hands.

Your forehead can be addressed with a well-executed forehead bone rasping operation with the help of the technological method “Piezo “ which provides the best results and the easiest recovery (not the classical method) by entering through an incision made from your hairline. You can get the look you want with this operation, which is performed with the latest technology piezo technique.

Piezo technology will protect your soft tissues and provide you with maximum recovery fastly. Since this technological piezo method offers a much more sensitive and attentive working opportunity than classical methods, it minimizes the risk of causing volume loss in the hair. It allows you to have a very comfortable recovery period and return to your daily life immediately.

You can visit the link below to learn more about the piezo technique. I recommend investigating the long-term outcomes of your surgeon. It is the best indicator of choosing a good surgeon for you. When researching your surgeon, please note whether all of their results are similar. Some surgeons copy their results to all their patients. If you see the same face lines in all of your surgeon's results, this is an indication that he or she did not tailor his results. Unfortunately, most surgeons give similar results and rarely perform personalized surgeries like me. One golden rule: Please do not have the surgery when you feel uncomfortable and in doubt with a surgeon you hesitate. The point to consider when looking for the best surgeon is the time between your surgeon's before and after photos. Postoperative photographs must be at least 1 year after the operation. Early results and intraoperative comparison photos are of no value. Secondly, make sure that you have a good communication with your surgeon and that he/she fully understands you.

I’m the only triple board-certified facial plastic surgeon all around Europe.I’m just focused on this issue. I am a doctor who goes to almost every country in the world and explains my techniques to important doctors with the seminar invitations I receive, so I am definitely the only doctor who can perform your operation very comfortably and successfully.

You can get more detailed information about me, ask all questions about your case and sending your photos to my assistants at the number on my profile (+90 539 204 40 90). You can also book an online consultation and discuss your problems with me. With all respect.

Frontal eminence prominences are not uncommon and can be reduced by a shaving technique. This can be done by either a hairline or retro hairline incision for access to do it.
