The easiest method of Asian forehead augmentation employs injection of liposuctioned fat obtained from the patient's own body.

Since there is no surgical incision on the forehead, recovery is fairly rapid.

Unfortunately, nearly half (if not all) of the transferred fat will die and absorb over the first six months, so more than one or two treatments may be needed to achieve and maintain the best result.

The final forehead contour is usually smoother with a customized silicone implant than with fat grafting, which, because of irregular survival and loss, may appear somewhat lumpy.
