Achieve a Smooth, Balanced Profile with Advanced Forehead Contouring
Forehead augmentation is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the shape, volume, and overall harmony of the forehead. Ideal for individuals with a flat, recessed, or uneven forehead, this treatment brings balance to the upper face and improves the side profile. Whether you're seeking a more feminine contour, a rounder forehead, or correction of asymmetry, forehead augmentation can deliver long-lasting and natural-looking results.
Forehead augmentation involves the addition of volume or reshaping of the forehead bone to create a more aesthetically pleasing contour. It is commonly performed for both cosmetic enhancement and facial feminization purposes. Depending on your goals, several techniques can be used to achieve a smoother, fuller, or more curved forehead appearance.
This procedure is especially popular among individuals who feel their forehead appears too flat, bony, or lacks definition—features that can affect the overall harmony between the forehead, nose, and brow line.
Forehead augmentation is typically performed under general or sedation anesthesia. Depending on the technique used:
Most patients return to normal activities within 7–10 days. Swelling and mild bruising are common and subside over 1–2 weeks. Final results are visible once swelling resolves, typically within 3–4 weeks.
Technique | Description | Pros | Cons |
---|---|---|---|
Fat Grafting | Uses your own fat, harvested from another area of the body | Natural feel, no implants, less invasive | May require touch-up; partial absorption |
Silicone Implants | Custom-shaped silicone is placed beneath the skin | Stable volume, defined curvature | Involves surgery; potential implant feel |
Bone Cement (MMA) | Methyl methacrylate molded directly onto the forehead bone | Highly customizable; best for asymmetry | Requires surgical precision; higher cost |
👉 The most suitable method depends on your facial anatomy, skin condition, and desired outcome. A consultation will determine the ideal approach.
