What is the reason for a sunken forehead

Our foreheads are generally very flat. Even if they are not very flat, at least they are prominent. However, in daily life, some people have sunken foreheads. Because the position is more obvious, this shape of forehead looks very ugly. We need to find out the specific reasons and deal with it according to the situation. So, what is the reason for a sunken forehead? Let’s take a look below.

1. Hemifrontal atrophy Hemifrontal atrophy is usually characterized by a depression in the front part of the forehead. This hollowing is also often accompanied by a hollowing of the eyelids and even in the cheeks. Most patients with hemifrontal atrophy are caused by congenital genetic factors, but this is not necessarily the case. Some people are caused by other reasons.

2. The center of the forehead is sunken. A sunken forehead is usually caused by congenital factors. Usually, this kind of median depression of the forehead is mostly hereditary. The repair of the central depression of the forehead basically requires making the forehead fuller, which can only be improved through forehead filling surgery. Usually, forehead filling surgery is prosthesis filling and autologous fat filling.

3. Depression caused by traumatic bone injury. Traumatic bone injury deformity usually occurs when the frontal bone is not restored in time through surgery after frontal bone injury, or when the forehead depression caused by traumatic skull defects is more complicated and requires not only forehead filling through forehead surgery, but also repair of damaged skin. Good results can be achieved in repairing damaged skin.

How to correct the forehead depression?

1. Fill the forehead with autologous fat .

This method mainly involves extracting a portion of fat from other parts of the patient's body where fat is accumulated, and then filling it into the patient's forehead after processing, thereby achieving the purpose of filling the forehead.

The advantage of this method is that the material is relatively rich, but after the operation, the effect is also good!

2. Inject hyaluronic acid to fill the forehead.

This method of filling the forehead mainly utilizes the fillability of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is injected into the forehead to make the forehead fuller, thus achieving the purpose of forehead augmentation.

The advantage of this method is that the surgery is minimally invasive, there will be almost no wound, the recovery period after the surgery is very short, and it hardly affects your life and work. However, this method of forehead augmentation requires a large amount of hyaluronic acid, so the price will be more expensive.

3. Fill the forehead with prosthesis.

This method, as the name suggests, mainly involves carving the prosthetic material into the shape of the forehead, implanting it into the forehead of the patient, and then suturing it, thereby achieving the purpose of forehead augmentation.
