Hi, I had a forehead remodeling where the idea was ONLY to reduce the horn-like prominences and advance the hairline. Very unfortunately my surgeon decided to ignore when I explicitly asked NOT to shave my orbital bone. Now my eyes are not as hooded (for the worse), and redundant skin created the need for a blepharoplasty that I didn't needed before. I've asked about fillers but I've been told it's risky because the anatomy is altered and the area is complicated. What are the options?
