Objective:
To explore the reliability of humping the forehead and temple by en block frontal temporal silicone .
Methods:
Make wax mold by piling up wax slices layer by layer according to the rang of depressing of the forehead and temple, the section being humped and the hight need to be projected. Order the silicone block according to the dimension of the wax mold. Make the implant from the silicon block. Under local anaesthesia dissection under the superficial temporal fascia and galea through forehead and two temporal incisions. Implant the silicon through the middle incision.
Results:
Total 18 cases in this group were followed up for 3-12 months. Wound healed primarily without infection. I case with early blood effusion cured after aspiration. l case with later clear effusion cured after aspiration ad injection of prednisone in to the capsular. The frontal temporal contours were satisfactory . No outline of the implant was seen.
Conclusion:
It is safety and satisfied to hump the forehead and temple by en block frontal temporal silicone.

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...
Cranial Bones: Lateral View
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...
Sutures of the Skull
Sutures are immobile joints between adjacent bones of the skull. The narrow gap between the bones is filled with dense, fibrous connective tissue that unites the bones. The long sutures located between the skull bones are not straight but instead follow irregular, tightly twisting paths. These twisting lines tightly...
Overview of the Skull
The cranial vault surrounds and protects the brain and houses the middle and inner ear structures. This cavity is bounded superiorly by the rounded top of the skull, which...
