What should I do if I have a narrow forehead and high cheekbones?
Disease description:
My facial proportions are quite unbalanced—I have a narrow forehead and prominent cheekbones—making me feel very self-conscious. Therefore, I’d like to consult about what can be done for a narrow forehead and high cheekbones.
Individuals with a narrow forehead and high cheekbones may appear to have unbalanced facial proportions, which can be improved through cosmetic surgery. Initially, the forehead area can be adjusted—options such as fat grafting may be selected to increase forehead exposure and restore its fullness. If the patient’s cheekbones extend beyond the normal physiological range, osteotomy (bone-cutting surgery) may be performed to correct the excessive prominence of the zygomatic bones.
