Can I Do Forehead and Back Of The Head Reduction At The Same Time?

Q: Dr. Eppley, Hi i would like to do a forehead and back reduction.I would like a flatter back and forehead.

A:Thank you for your inquiry and sending your pictures. You have a combination of an occipital protrusion and frontal or for head bossing. Both can be reduced as per the attached imaging. The bone on the back of the head is very thick and a lot of reduction can be accomplished. The four head bone is thinner so it is unclear just looking at your pictures what degree of reduction you could achieve but it would likely be enough to make a difference.
