Approach
A major part of the face, the forehead occupies nearly one-third of the total surface area and is a major contributor to the overall aesthetics of the face. If the forehead is marked by a noticeable ridge or bump on the skull above the eyes or on the side of the forehead, an osteoma, lipoma, or a different lesion may be present. Dr. Paul is a master of the endoscopic approach to remove osteomas or lipomas to smooth the forehead for a more attractive look and feel. Endoscopic osteoma removal involves the removal of excess osteocytes or bone cells. Endoscopic lipoma removal involves the removal of excess lipocytes or fat cells. Overall, the advantage of an endoscopic approach is that the access port is placed in the hairline, which does not leave a visible scar on the forehead.

Review on forehead cyst removal:
Dr. Paul is AMAZING. He was very thorough and knowledgeable when it came down to my procedure for cyst removal. I had spoken to many different specialists in hopes to having this cyst removed from my forehead however he was the only one who made me feel comfortable and safe. The surgery went extremely well. He made sure that I understood what the procedure process and was available for me when I had any question pre or post surgery. The whole staff was awesome as well especially Sarah and Mike. I wish this was my primary care office rather than plastic surgeon lol. I would definitely recommed Dr. Paul !
