Is there any way I could make my forehead bigger?

Question

My forehead is one inch and the sides are kinda skinny, it’s like a flat chin. I would probably do anything to make it bigger.

It is possible, to a certain degree, to elongate (widen) forehead with coronal lift. Scar is placed in the hair-bearing scalp and barely visible. Sometimes, short intra-operative skin expansion may be used. Augmentation of "skinny" areas with fat graft or implants may be additional option.However, only on the basis of in person evaluation one can make appropriate analysis and suggest plan of treatment. Good luck.

Hello and thank you for your question. As mentioned prior, it is possible, but you would end up with some scars on your hairline. They could be diminished using scar laser therapy, but it would be best to consult with a surgeon that specializes in these type of procedures, as they are not very common. Hope you get the best results!

Most people choose to get a smaller forehead. However, if yours is too large we would adjust it by adding tissue. This could be a custom implant or even just an injectable filler.  A photograph will help very much to determine where the deficiency is located.

can be done but it will elevate your brows to some degree and leave a scar at or in your scalp... and if you have dark hair, you could do laser hair removal instead but it would take several sessions to accomplish a clean and higher forehead.  Now if you're talking making your forehead protrude more, you can achieve that with custom implants or fat grafting...

The best method to augment the forehead and have it extend its effect to the sides into the upper temporal area is with a custom forehead implant. This is made from the patient's 3D CT scan and is inserted from a relatively small scalp incision.
