Ancillary feminizing procedures

Aims of TrueShape Forehead Feminization – No shortcut

• Lowering of hairline with invisible scar by instant camouflage with small session of Hair transplant

• Smooth regular contour of forehead with vertical slope

• Smooth brow areas (no ridges)

• Smooth temporal areas (no temporal crests)

• Open expression of eyes

• Feminine naso frontal angle

• Subtle brow lift

• Subtle midline dip in lower central forehead.

Aims of TrueShape Forehead Feminization – No shortcut

• We must explain to the patient that second session of hair transplant may be needed

– Either for reinforcement of density

– Or for further lowering of hair line

Brow bossing correction

• Shaving with or without filling.

->Sinus wall thickness is 2.6 to 2.9 mm in most of the cases, hence only shaving is not sufficient.

• Forehead reconstruction(frontal wall setback) is needed in most of the cases.

Brow bossing:- only shaving won’t do

More Common (95%) Less Common (5%)

Brow bossing:- only shaving won’t do

• Shaving is sufficient if anterior wall of frontal sinus is thick, and shaving leads to smooth contour without breaking through into the sinus

• This is true in few cases (5% cases)

• Just shaving and filling around makes the forehead more prominent and masculine (DOLPHIN FOREHEAD)

• Usually this is the shortcut- because either the surgeon don’t want to do or is scared to open the sinus

Usual Shortcuts (Must be avoided)

• No Temporal crest shaving

• No Lateral brow rim shaving

• Leftover forehead bossings

• Only shaving of brow ridges (No Reconstruction)

• Left over prominent brow soft tissues, procerus and superciliimuscle

• No camouflage of the scar
