Forehead Implants. A Plastic Surgeon Explains Why I Do Not Recommend Them.

Seven years ago, you underwent forehead implant insertion surgery,

and you were doing well, but recently

you visited the clinic because fluid kept accumulating in your forehead and then being absorbed again.

Even if you are satisfied with your forehead volume,

if those symptoms continue, you would naturally feel anxious.

Only by treating the cause

can recurrence be prevented.

Simply draining the fluid when it accumulates

is only a stopgap measure.

This is the implant that was removed that way.

As a silicone implant, when the forehead is flat or uneven,

it is used to add rounded volume

and create a feminine, soft impression.

Among these, silicone is valued because

it is less likely to cause inflammation and, above all,

is easy to remove.

The same is true for the nose.

Our hospital also performs silicone implant insertion.

However,

when a problem like the one above occurs,

after removal,

the forehead, where bone resorption has occurred due to the pressure of the silicone,

has no choice but to become flatter.

What about filler?

When a large amount of filler has been injected,

it tends to descend over time toward the area around the brow bone due to gravity.

On endoscopy, we could confirm that the area above the brow bone was severely sunken.

The patient who came to the clinic was the same.

So the conclusion is:

Silicone implant insertion

is also a way to permanently improve forehead volume,

but because it inevitably causes bone resorption,

I ask that you first consider fat grafting.

The patient above also decided to undergo fat grafting after recovery.

I will finish by showing you a forehead that has been given volume through fat grafting.^^

The sunset was so beautiful that I wanted to keep it.
