ABOUT

The forehead typically takes up a third of your facial area, but some people find this area to be larger than others. This disproportion can often lead to issues with self-consciousness and body image. Forehead reduction surgery is designed to bring the hairline lower on your forehead so that you can maintain a properly proportioned facial structure.

Forehead reduction plastic surgery is a procedure offered by cosmetic surgeons in Beverly Hills to patients who want to alter the size or shape of their forehead. This surgery, also known as foreheadplasty, involves carefully removing or repositioning tissues and bone in the forehead area to create a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. Many patients seek forehead reduction to reduce signs of aging or to create better proportions between facial features. The forehead makes up a significant portion of the upper face, so even subtle changes to its size or contour can dramatically alter one's look Skilled Beverly Hills surgeons like  Dr. Michael K. Obeng use advanced techniques to perform forehead reductions through small incisions made within the hairline. This allows the doctor to reshape the underlying bone and tissue without leaving visible scarring. During a foreheadplasty, excess skin, muscle and fat may be excised while forehead bones are sculpted or repositioned. Internal sutures close incision sites. Results of forehead reduction are visible immediately after surgery. As swelling subsides over several weeks, the smoother, more youthful, and better-proportioned forehead fully emerges. Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activity during recovery. Most see optimal results within two months after surgery. Forehead reduction offers patients a relatively quick way to refresh their look and restore a more oval, symmetrical facial shape. When performed by an experienced surgeon like  Dr. Michael K. Obeng, it can provide dramatic yet natural-looking improvements in the upper third of the face.
