Brow bone shaving or forehead lifting? What would you recommend? (photo)

Brow bone contouring is suitable in your case. In order to know what technique is indicated (type 1 or type 3) some X rays would be necessary. If the anterior wall of your frontal sinus is thicker than the amount of setback wanted, or if there is no frontal sinus at all, type 1 technique would be indicated. If the anterior wall of the frontal sinus is thinner than the amount of setback wanted, type 3 tchnique would be indicated. Brow lift alone won't give you a satisfactory result. But brow lift must be a necessary complement to the bone work. The eyebrows must be lifted because the bone structure that gives them support from underneath will no longer be there, and also because your orbital rims will be ground on the underside (lifted) to open up the gaze.

Hello, hope you are well. Thanks for posting your questions and photos. You appear to have a relatively high/posterior hairline and a modest brow ridge. These can be tackled at the same time as a combined procedure of brow ridge reduction (probably Type I), scalp advancement (hairline lowering), and brow lift. At the same time orbital rim contouring can be done to further feminize your appearance. These are procedures I do quite frequently in the context of FFS and I think you would be pleased with the outcome.

Cheers,

It is my understanding that you want to improve feminine features of your forehead? If so, I do not think that contouring of the forehead would benefit you much. However, making your high forehead lower with advancement of the hairline can he considered. Hope this helps. Good luck.
