Why does my forehead looks like it has horns and can I reduce them? (Photos)

Question

My forehead looks like it has horns and I really don’t like them because they don’t look normal. I would like to know if there is a procedure for reducing them or something.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Dear Jubilant6718,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. This can be caused by the structure of your forehead bone or extra fat tissue in that area. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

The bony protuberances of your upper forehead likely appear more prominent due to volume loss above your brows (most evident in profile picture).  Filler in these areas can help to recreate a smooth, youthful convex forehead.

Sean Hashemi, MD · Answer

Most likely these are prominences from your forehead (skull) bone. The bone can be reduced but the amount depends on the anatomy. Seeking consultation with a facial plastic surgeon would be a good start.

Most likely this is your anatomy The structure of your bones and or far pads This reduction may or may not require surgery
