Are there US surgeons that perform brow/orbital bone reduction on cis-females? (Photo)

8068127Feb 28, 2025
I've wanted to have this procedure for a long time, as it's been an insecurity of mine since my mid-teens. I want to have this done by someone experienced who can perform it safely, naturally, + beautifully. Could you tell me how you would perform the surgery on me? I am cis-female--I know that there are women have larger forehead bones--I just want to soften/harmonize mine. I want to make sure I'm on the same page with a surgeon in my candidacy before I move forward with a consultation

It would be very difficult to give you any advice based on these photos. In person, second opinion consultation with an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon is recommended. Good luck.

Hello, hope you are well. Based on the photo that you submitted, I believe that you would be a good candidate for brow bone reduction. It would absolutely further feminize your appearance; sometimes we perform forehead reduction and/or brow lift at the same time according to your preferences....

If this is bone we can readily address this by reducing the bone. Takes about 90 minutes overall and is a highly successful procedure. But if it is quite new it may be worth getting an x-ray or CT scan. We are glad to look at the images.
