Yes, Facial Masculinization Surgery (FMS) can change the appearance of your forehead when viewed from the side. The forehead is a prominent facial feature, and FMS procedures can address various aspects of the forehead to achieve a more masculine facial profile.
Common FMS procedures that can impact the appearance of the forehead in side view include:
- Forehead Contouring: Forehead contouring involves reshaping the forehead bones to create a more masculine and prominent forehead. This can be achieved through procedures such as forehead reduction (foreheadplasty) or forehead augmentation using implants.
- Brow Bone Reduction: Reducing the prominence of the brow bone can contribute to a more masculine appearance of the forehead.
- Hairline Advancement: Hairline advancement, also known as forehead reduction or hairline lowering, can be performed to adjust the position of the hairline, which can impact the perceived height and appearance of the forehead.
By addressing the forehead in side view, FMS can contribute to a more balanced and masculine facial profile.
As with any surgical procedure, it’s crucial to work with an experienced FMS surgeon who can assess your unique facial features and discuss your desired outcomes. They will recommend the most appropriate procedures to achieve a natural and masculine appearance while maintaining facial harmony.
Keep in mind that while FMS can have a significant impact on the appearance of the forehead in side view, each individual’s anatomy is unique, and the results will vary. A thorough consultation with your surgeon is essential to ensure that your expectations are realistic, and the planned procedures can achieve the desired outcomes.
