The FOREContour® facial bone surgery concept is possible thanks to our investment in the latest medical technologies.
3D Photography
Our facial scanner with VECTRA® H1 technology and precision optics enables us to take multi-positional, hi-res images that illustrate the very finest details of your face.3D CT Scans
3D CT scans enable us to perform anatomical and volumetric studies and create a comprehensive three-dimensional reconstruction of your forehead before your personal consultation. This enables us to precisely plan your bespoke bone sculpture surgery and help you to visualise what you’ll look like after the surgery.Ultrasonic Surgical Instruments
The ultrasound scalpel permits the cleanest and most concise cuts in mineralised tissues, such as bone. Such unparalleled precision and accuracy help ensure surrounding soft tissues are left untouched, heightening the safety of the procedure and minimising the risk of postoperative complications and side effects. -
Following your forehead reshaping procedure, which may be complemented by additional enhancements, you will swiftly resume your daily activities. The initial 72-hour post-surgery period can present some challenges, primarily due to the effects of anaesthesia and your body’s response to the procedures. It’s worth noting that postoperative effects, such as nausea, swelling, bruising, and minor bleeding, are detailed in your comprehensive informed consent documents.
Immediate Postoperative Phase
Your surgery typically requires a 1 to 2-night stay in the hospital, where our team meticulously monitors your well-being. Your first postoperative meal will be provided during your hospital stay, and you can quickly return to your regular diet unless lower face procedures are involved. We recommend a 7-10 day stay after surgery, ensuring the comfortable removal of sutures. Gentle strolls are encouraged, and we invite you to explore our range of exclusive healing therapies, including personalised lymphatic drainage and acupuncture.Two to Twelve Weeks Post-Surgery
Visible bruising and swelling will gradually subside within a few weeks, with the risk of potential complications significantly reduced. Upon returning home, patients should patiently wait 6-8 weeks before reengaging in strenuous physical activities, gradually easing back into their daily routines.Our refined scalp incision and suturing technique allows for gradual hair regrowth, effectively concealing the scar, often achieved within a few months following the surgery. Complete scar coverage may take some more time, and we remain at your disposal for any necessary follow-up consultations.
Long-term Progress
Our postoperative team is at your service to address any concerns as you navigate your recovery journey. All patients are cordially invited to request a final checkup after one year, providing a comprehensive assessment of your transformation’s progress once all elements have harmoniously settled. -
FOREContour® is proud to maintain an exceptional track record, reporting a remarkably low complication rate of less than 1% in our forehead feminisation surgeries, with an average revision rate of just 0.84%.
We understand that surgical interventions under general anaesthesia come with potential considerations. It’s important to note that, in some cases, minor complications like swelling and bleeding may occur, but these are typically manageable and vary in intensity. Occasionally, you may experience temporary symptoms, like numbness, which tend to gradually improve over time.
For your peace of mind, we want you to know that any major complications, if they occur, are typically identified within days following the surgery. To provide added security, we offer comprehensive medical insurance coverage to ensure that you’re fully supported in the unlikely event that unforeseen medical attention becomes necessary due to your forehead surgery.
