Thanks for your question. There are a number of options ranging from temporary placement of fillers in the clinic setting, to more formal filling of the defect using implants via small endoscopic incisions in the hairline. Cost will vary based on the procedure chosen. If you are in the San Antonio area, I would be happy to meet with you in person to discuss your options.
Thank you for your question. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.Best wishes,
Thank you for your question. Certainly, the least invasive procedure would be to try filling the "dent" with fillers, of which there are simply so many from which to choose that it is best discussed with the doctor you choose. Small incision endoscopic approaches to the forehead could also be performed with release of scar tissue and the use of autologous fat as a more costly but more lasting fix to this problem. Good luck!
Since you had previous trauma to your skull it is important to see what is causing tthis area of depression. If an implant is placed it need to have inrowth into the implant so it doesn't move and also need to blend at the edges so it is not visible. There are many options of fillers including carbinated calcium phosphet cement, and mutiple comercially available curshed bone fillers, including bone pastes, and osteoconductive graft subsitutes. Fat grafing is another possibility. Neurosurgeons probably have the greatest experince in this area although may not have the greatest concern about the final aesthetic appearanceso also consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeion about this many options.
Hello Castro_Corona,There are a few ways to repair a forehead contour irregularity like yours. The most straightforward and least invasive way involves making some incisions within your hairline and then putting a mesh implant to lift the tissue out of the dent and camouflage it. More aggressive treatments involve a much larger incision and reconstructing the divot with bone grafts. The latter option is not usually needed, especially if you haven't had any problems in 8 years. I'd recommend you consult with a facial plastic surgeon to determine a specific plan for you. I hope this helps and good luck.
