Forehead contouring brow bone reduction FFS is one of the most requested procedures at our Chicago, IL practice. The forehead and brow bone are the primary drivers of gender perception in the face. A prominent supraorbital ridge — the shelf of bone just above the eyebrows — is one of the most recognizable masculine features and one of the most commonly addressed in facial feminization surgery. At Evolve Your Life in Chicago, IL, patients travel from every corner of the United States to have this transformative procedure performed by Dr. Amir Dorafshar.
How Forehead Contouring and Brow Bone Reduction Work
Dr. Dorafshar uses CT-based surgical planning to determine the safest and most effective approach for each patient’s unique anatomy. The upper third of the face procedures include Type I bone shaving for patients with sufficient bone density, and Type III cranioplasty for those with thin sinus walls — where the front bone plate is temporarily removed, reshaped, and reattached with precision hardware.
Complementing the bone work, a brow lift elevates the brows into a softly arched, feminine position. Hairline lowering via scalp advancement shortens the forehead and corrects M-shaped recession. Eyelid lift surgery can also be performed in the same session to further open and brighten the eye area. Our Chicago, IL team accommodates out-of-state patients with virtual pre-op appointments and detailed recovery plans for traveling home safely.
