Treatment for big forehead? Is this craniosynostosis? Is my hairline just high?

August 20, 2017
Asked By:HealthInfo101 in San Francisco, California

So I think my forehead is big; people tell me its fine, it's just the camera distorting it but I feel it's huge and I'm self concious. You can see in some light it looks fine and the slope and such is normal, but then other light it makes it look like there's a bulge and protruding. Also, u will see in 1 pic there's dots where is looks like there's indents & shadows. What should be done? Do I need forehead reduction or contouring surgery?
