Forehead Implant in Bangkok, Thailand

Key takeaways

• A forehead implant builds projection at the forehead and brow ridge; it does not make the forehead shorter.
• It is chosen by men who want a stronger brow in profile, and by people of any gender with a flat or sloping forehead.
• Imaging and the shape of your skull guide the implant size and shape.
• A forehead implant at YOUNIFY Clinic starts from THB 119,000.

What a forehead implant changes

The forehead and brow shape how the upper face reads in profile. A flat or backward-sloping forehead can make the brow look weak and the nose look more prominent. A forehead implant sits on the bone of the forehead and brow ridge and builds forward projection, so the upper face looks fuller and, in men, the brow looks stronger.

It changes projection, not height. When the forehead is tall and you want it shorter, that is forehead reduction, which moves the hairline forward. When the brow ridge is too prominent and you want it smaller, that is brow bone reduction, planned on the forehead and brow page.

Operation and recovery

• Where: at a JCI- or AACI-accredited partner private hospital in Bangkok, with anesthesia care and continuous monitoring throughout.
• First week: swelling of the forehead and around the eyes is common and can track down to the eyelids for a few days.
• Numbness: numbness of the forehead and scalp is common and usually temporary.

Risks of facial implants include infection, movement of the implant, visible edges and the need for revision. Read chin and jaw implant risks, which explains how these are reduced and managed.

A note from our medical team

We look at the forehead together with the nose and the chin, because the profile is read as one line. A modest forehead implant can change how strong the brow looks more than patients expect, so we start conservatively and explain why.
