The answer is in the slightly visible double eyelids.

This person knew that if they had a forehead lift,

the forehead would gain volume and the brow bones would be less visible,

and the forehead shape would become more rounded,

so through KnowledgeiN they asked whether they should do fat grafting or a forehead lift.

Along with the question, they uploaded several photos showing the forehead and brow bones, and the answer to whether to do a forehead lift or forehead fat grafting was in this first photo!

Why is the first photo important?

Because the double eyelids are slightly visible

in the area marked in red.

For the reason, lets look at the answer below together!

To summarize the answer to the question:

  1. Considering the brow bones, forehead length, and the habit of opening the eyes,

what is needed now is a forehead lift.

However, a forehead lift is suitable only if you like the eye shape after lifting the eyebrows with the palm of your hand.

After the forehead lift, you can also see how things progress and then additionally do fat grafting.

If you do fat grafting after a forehead lift has already improved the brow bones while creating the eye shape you want, it can add volume to the forehead.

  1. If you do not like the eye shape with the eyebrows lifted,

then forehead fat grafting is the right choice

for compensating for the prominent brow bones.

Fillers tend to move downward due to gravity,

and later they can gather above the brow bones,

which may make the forehead shape look unattractive,

so I do not actively recommend them.

^^

Fortunately, the person who asked the question

made a reservation and visited the clinic.

As you can see in the photos, the brow area is prominent,

but the forehead above it is significantly sunken.

Looking at the eye area, this was a case where it was better to add secondary volume to the forehead through a forehead lift.

So they underwent endoscopic forehead lift surgery.

They achieved the desired result and were satisfied.

!!Forehead volume!!

As I mentioned in the previous post,

it is something you gain as a bonus after a forehead lift,

not the reason for having the forehead lift in the first place.

Changes in forehead volume before/after endoscopic forehead lift

A forehead lift is a surgery for the eyelids and double eyelids,

and because the forehead volume is obtained secondarily,

the point is that if you do not want changes in the eye shape and only want more forehead volume,

you can simply have fat grafting.

However, if the actual width of the forehead is narrow and you want to make it wider,

but do not want changes in the eye shape,

there is also a surgery that raises the hairline without lifting the eyebrows,

through my own forehead lift method, which does not dissect down to below the eyebrows as usual.

Please keep this in mind.

. . . . . . . .

In cases where the brow bones are very developed (prominent),

there are also cases where improvement is made by shaving down the protruding brow bones.

This is a method in which an endoscope is used to dissect through a small incision in the hairline,

and then the protruding brow bones are shaved down.

Whether you are a suitable candidate for brow bone shaving

will be diagnosed when you visit the clinic.
