Key Aspects of the Surgery
Technology: Some surgeons use endoscopic techniques for smaller incisions and faster healing, or ultrasonic saws for safer bone cutting
Goal: To diminish “brow bossing” (a prominent ridge) and change a slanted forehead to a more vertical, rounded shape.
Techniques:
Type I (Burring/Shaving): The brow ridge is shaved down. Suitable if the sinus is small or positioned behind the needed reduction area.
Type II (Shaving + Cement): Minimal shaving combined with bone cement to fill concavities above the ridge.
Type III (Reconstruction): The most common method for significant reduction. The outer wall of the frontal sinus is removed, remodeled, and replaced to create a smoother, deeper, and flatter contour.
Approach: Incisions are often made behind the hairline (coronal approach) to avoid visible scarring.
Recovery and Results
- Results: The procedure is generally permanent and results in a more feminine facial appearance.
- Recovery: Initial swelling may last 1–2 weeks, with minor, lingering swelling potentially lasting up to two months.
- Cost: Generally ranges from $8,000 to $9,000, though this varies by surgeon and complexity.
Risks
While uncommon, potential risks include persistent forehead numbness, infection, bleeding, and asymmetry
