What is Forehead Contouring?
The forehead is a significant feature that frames the whole face. It might make our face look too masculine, too feminine, or out-of-balance with other facial features because of being asymmetrical in shape. If you have a broad or narrow forehead and are not satisfied with its shape in general, forehead reduction surgery can be a good option for you. It is an operation typically performed for aesthetic purposes. For having this surgery, you should consult with a knowledgeable surgeon who is experienced in both general plastic surgery and craniofacial surgery. The major reason is that the doctor will not only modify the soft tissues of the face through plastic surgery but also the bony structure of the skull. Through this operation, your surgeon will shape the forehead along with the delicate bones around the eye socket to reduce the bony ridge of a prominent forehead. Reduction and reshaping of the brow can also be beneficial in opening up the eyes which enhances the shape of the upper facial area.

Who Can Benefit From Forehead Contouring?
Healthy adults who are not happy with the size and shape of their forehead can think of forehead contouring as an effective solution. Doctors perform this surgery on individuals with too prominent or masculine-looking brows and forehead.
Procedure
Forehead reduction is typically carried out under a general anesthetic. In the beginning, surgeons make an incision either right at, or behind the hairline to access the forehead tissue and bones. The location of the incision highly depends on the necessity of changing the hairline position. If needed, doctors will reconstruct the brow bone as well to decrease its size. In most cases, the bone between the eyebrows is removed, shaped, and finally reattached so that it doesn't interfere with the underlying sinuses. If the major goal is reshaping the forehead, your surgeon generally uses a synthetic material to fill out a ridge and then creates the desired round shape. At the end of the surgery, doctors can use either deep sutures which disappear after a while or external sutures which will be removed five days following the operation.
Recovery
Generally, patients will have to stay in the hospital for a day. Your surgeon will do some examinations before permitting you to go back home. He does so to make sure that everything is fine. The usual side effects of this operation are bruising and swelling. You do not need to worry about them since they will fade away within a week or two. Loss of sensation in the forehead area is another issue which is totally normal. It mostly resolves after two to four months.
You need to visit your surgeon to remove the sutures six or eight days after the surgery. Afterwards, you can feel free to go back to work and do your daily routine activities. However, if your operation has been combined with other similar procedures, it’s better to rest for a longer period of time to accelerate the healing process. The final important point to mention is that strenuous activities are forbidden for at least six weeks. All these issues will be completely clarified by your surgeon in the follow-up appointments.
The Results
As swelling fades away, you can see the result of your operation and enjoy your new appearance. You need to be patient since the initial part of healing process may include numbness or discomfort as well. In some cases, bruising might take several months to disappear depending on your body condition.
Luckily, the final results of forehead contouring are long-lasting. Nevertheless, a significant point must be indicated. Despite the fact that all patients expect to achieve their desirable results from the surgery, there is no guarantee. In some situations, a single procedure cannot help you meet your needs and other operations might be necessary.
