Can I get surgery to reshape my forehead? I had an accident as a kid that changed my skull shape, and now my forehead looks uneven and unnatural. It really bothers me are there any procedures to fix this?

Skull reshaping may be performed surgically or via the use of helmets. In adults, skull reshaping by reshaping of the skull bones is not possible due to the inherent risks of blood loss. As such, skull reshaping in adults is mainly performed via the use of custom-made implants.

I'm a 24-year-old woman with level 3 ptosis and my saggy breasts are really affecting my confidence. Is this normal to feel so embarrassed about it? Are there any non-surgical options besides a breast lift that could help? I'm struggling with how this makes me feel about myself.

I'm 25 and thinking about reshaping my nose but I really don't want surgery. Is there any way to change the shape without going under the knife? I've heard about nose exercises do they actually work? Also, are there any creams or applications that can help reshape it? If so, which ones would you recommend and how effective are they?

While some claim nose exercises and creams can reshape your nose, there's no scientific evidence to support these claims. The shape of your nose is largely determined by bone and cartilage, which cannot be altered by external methods like exercises or creams. Nonsurgical rhinoplasty, using dermal fillers, can temporarily change the nose's shape, but it's not a permanent solution.
