How Can A Sloping Forehead With Temporal Hollowing Be Corrected?
Q: Dr. Eppley, Question about how to correct a sloping forehead with a very strong low brow bone with temporal hollowing.
A: This is a not uncommon forehead shape seen since it is reflective of an overall more narrow skull shape in an anteroposterior direction. Because you are a male your brow bones developed normally but what has developed around them is less developed. This would be effectively treated with a custom forehead implant (minus the brow bones) that has temporal extensions. (see attached)
