Can My Forehead Be Reduced?

Q: Dr. Eppley, I wanted to do plastic surgery on my forehead.

A: I believe you are referring to the bony prominences of upper forehead known as large forehead horns which is a form of frontal bossing. How successfully they can be reduced depends on the thickness of the upper forehead bone which requires a CT scan to determine. (how much the bone can be safely reduced)
