F, 29, I have “forehead horns”. I am now experiencing volume loss in the forehead, and my head looks skull-like. I am very self conscious in overhead lighting. It also seems like I may have hypertrophic temporalis muscles? I am experiencing a lot of hair loss. Waiting for biopsy and blood work results. What are my options for improving the look of my forehead? Fillers + Botox in temporalis? Forehead burring? Hairline lowering? Any advice on the best way to proceed would be appreciated.

You've suggested a number of different procedures, but what is your intent? If you are looking for facial balance, maybe a chin implant is the best first step. You could do some fat grafting to your cheeks (or an implant), certainly. Hair grafting is another option or forehead contouring, but...
It is impossible to give you meaningful answer without in person evaluation or at least a series of good photos. Generally speaking, reduction of forehead height and limited bone contouring may be achieved in the same surgery. Hope this helps.
