Can the frontal sinus be setback through an eyebrow incision?

Question

I underwent a forehead reduction almost a year ago as apart of a facial feminization surgery (FFS). While I am partially satisfied with my results, the frontal sinus was not setback and now seems to protrude in contrast to the brow bone and remaining forehead that was shaved. Is it possible to have a second procedure done to only perform the setback of the frontal sinus? Given it is only the frontal sinus, can this only be performed through an eyebrow incision?

Hello, hope you are well. Thank you for posting your questions. It is theoretically possible to perform revision forehead contouring to further reduce the anterior table of the frontal sinus. As to whether you are an appropriate candidate for this would require a detailed assessment. The surgery would generally be performed through a scalp incision, not an eyebrow incision. 
Best,Dr. Tower
