In Addition to a Brow lift, Could I Have Part of my Brow Bone Removed?

Question :
In addition to a brow lift, could I have part of my brow bone removed? I feel as if this would soften my appearance.

Answer :
The short answer to your question is yes. However, removing your brow bone is not a simple procedure. You will need to have the bone drilled down and there are potential complications from this procedure. It is somewhat risky because of the fact that the frontal sinuses are directly behind the brow bone and the outer table of the frontal sinus is not particularly thick. The improvement in the appearance of your brow from brow bone reduction may only be negligible.
