Forehead Implant
Forehead refers to the most visible region of the face, where nearly one-third is the face. Some individuals are born with a smooth, fine-looking skull and forehead. However, others have a flat and irregular-shaped skull and forehead as a result of certain underlying reasons.
Women's foreheads are typically curved, rounded, and well-contoured, with arching brows and little or no brow bones protruding. Men's foreheads, on the other hand, are typically wider and higher, with a receding hairline. Men's brow bones are typically thicker and located lower on the forehead.
Different proportions of the face anatomy can have a significant impact on how a person appears. It is critical to have adequate face volume, as well as the form and size of the eyes and nose. The forehead, chin, and cheeks are crucial regions that define the overall contour of the face. This is why some people in Korea see face implants as a viable option.
If you want to improve the curves of your forehead, chin, and cheeks with filler injections, you may be interested in facial implants as well.
It is thus a suitable procedure that helps correct such defects. It gives personalized prosthetics to the patient’s forehead. It can include the chin and the smile line areas, the distance between the eyes, and the shape of the nose.
A forehead implant involves injecting an implant via the incision created inside the hairline to hide scars. The procedure does not only give you a good permanent outcome but also helps maintain the original shape.
This procedure involves the use of a material referred to as osteobond. Surgeons usually insert this material via the incision created on the hairline when it’s still spongy and easy to manipulate. It's then shaped carefully to create the ideal appearance that suits the patient’s desires. Once in the appropriate location, the material hardens, and the surgeon closes the incision to facilitate a quick recovery.
Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is a material that does not irritate or harm the body. This is the recommended material for this procedure since it is stable, long-lasting, and easily formed. This operation takes about 2-3 hours.
