Can The Top Of My Head Be Reduced?

Q: Dr. Eppley, would I be able to talk to you about skull reshaping? In terms of vertical height. Its the vertical height for me that I really don’t like

A: I believe you are likely referring to the posterior sagittal bump which would be the highest part of the top of your head. (see attached pictures) That can be reduced based on the thickness of the bone which is preoperatively assessed by a 3D CT skull scan with color thickness mappning to ensure an adequate but safe reduction can be achieved.
