Forehead Augmentation

Overview of the surgery:

Forehead Augmentation (Forehead Contouring Surgery) is a cosmetic surgery involving a patient’s forehead area from the upper eyebrow to the scalp line and from one side to the other of the head. When a patient undergoes a forehead contouring surgery, the earlier mentioned facial area is made slightly smoother and less protrusive.

It involves making an incision that begins right at the hairline. Following this, surgeons usually use bone cement to perform the augmentation. If the surgeon locates bony irregularities and protrusions in the brow area, these will be smoothed out as well. The incision will be closed using medical staples to give the patient an aesthetically pleasing and smooth appearance.

Duration of the operation:

The duration of the surgery usually takes about 2-3 hours.

Post operative care:

Forehead dressing is place on at the end of surgery and is removed the next day. In some cases, a drain may be removed (not commonly) and it is removed the next day also. There is some mild pain afterward but much of the forehead skin will be numb for awhile. Pain is easily controlled by pills. There will be some swelling afterwards which is driven downward by the dressing and gravity which affects the eyes and upper cheeks. It is most evident by two days after surgery and is largely gone within seven to ten days after surgery. Absorbable sutures are used in the scalp so there is no need for suture removal.

Recovery period:

Generally, the recovery time after this procedure is about 5-10 days. Quick recovery is possible because the incisions are all made in the scalp area. Patients are able to do their chores in a few days and go back to work within a week. Others can return to working out in two weeks after surgery.

Possible risk and complications:

Complications arising from a forehead contouring surgery are minimal since bone cement is used instead of silicone implants. The only one that may come up is contouring irregularities. However, most surgeons minimize this risk by sculpting and smoothing out the bone cement using specialized instruments.

Anesthesia use:

The procedure uses general or local anesthesia

Hospital admission:

The forehead augmentation procedure may be performed in the cosmetic surgeon’s office-based facility, an outpatient surgery center, or at a hospital. This procedure is usually done on an outpatient basis.

Preparation before Surgery

• Assessment of the medical history (any allergies, serious medical condition and all medications taken both prescribed and non-prescribed), physical examination, and laboratory tests will be performed during consultation.
• Blood and urine samples will be collected for routine preoperative laboratory tests.
• Smoking must be avoided for about 3-4 weeks prior to surgery, as nicotine interferes with circulation and will greatly affect healing process.
• You will likely to be asked to stop drinking alcohol, a week before the surgery and throughout your recovery period.
• Avoid taking any medications such as hormones, anticoagulants, anabolic steroids and supplements at least 4-6 weeks to prevent complicating medical factors prior to surgery. Avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements as they can increase bleeding.

Sliding Genioplasty (Chin Advancement)

Overview of the surgery:

Sliding Genioplasty also called "Chin Advancement" is a plastic surgery procedure designed to change the shape of the chin to harmonize with the other facial features.

This procedure is performed from an incision inside the mouth below the lower lip. The sliding genioplasty is used in more severe cases or in cases where the chin needs to be lengthened or moved backward. The actual bony chin portion of the jaw is then cut and advanced or moved back. This segment is then secured with a tiny bone screw or wire.

Duration of the operation:

Normally 1 hour, though can take up to 3 hours if other procedures are also carried out at the same time.

Post operative care:

You will be advised to stay on a soft diet and to rinse frequently the operative site with saline solution until the first postoperative visit. You may feel some discomfort that soreness which will be controlled with pain killers.

Recovery period:

You may return to normal activities within 5-10 days and you might have to stick to a liquid or soft diet for at least a day or two.

Possible risk and complications:

Possible complications of chin advancement are over reduction, under reduction, nerve damage, necrosis, poor cosmetic outcomes, reaction or rejection of implants or bone filler, hematoma, infection, permanent change in sensation as with pain or tenderness, step down problems, gum recession, tooth root exposer, tooth loss, chin ptosis, blood clots, non union between the bone segments or screw and or plate misplacement. You should discuss all the risks with your cosmetic surgeon.

Anesthesia use:

General or local anesthesia, depending on the procedure

Hospital admission:

It depends on your preferences as well as your surgeon’s. Chin advancement can be performed on an out patient basis, in the hospital, or in an ambulatory surgical suite.

Preparation before Surgery

• Assessment of the medical history (any allergies, serious medical condition and all medications taken both prescribed and non-prescribed), physical examination, and laboratory tests will be performed during consultation.
• Blood and urine samples will be collected for routine preoperative laboratory tests.
• Smoking must be avoided for about 3-4 weeks prior to surgery, as nicotine interferes with circulation and will greatly affect healing process.
• You will likely to be asked to stop drinking alcohol, a week before the surgery and throughout your recovery period.
