why would you ever want this? A narrower head is never better especially for a male
What do you mean by 'head shape' as well? Which part of the skull / face?
If you mean your neurocranium, then the only ways are through temporalis resection which only Eppley performs, or a lot of botox.
Can they also widen my head?Apparently he can.
Why don't you see other doctors doing it, and just Eppley?
Is it legit? On Eppleys website he says theirs little risk.
if your head is wide and ur face is narrow like a lightbulb as youve described, youd be better off widening the face, rather than narrowing the cranium.
Only really shows up with short hair, medium length hair covers it up to the point where it isn't really much of an issue.
Otherwise your best option is posterior temporal reduction. Widening the face won't tackle the issue because the area directly surrounding the area's cannot be mobilised. It is the position of this area relative to the posterior temporal region which leads to that 'lightbulb' look.
Nobody here knows a thing, it's a very obscure procedure and only Eppley has written about it. I encourage you to please do research
Only research is from Eppley.Mommaerts has something about this (reducing the temporal muscles). Pretty sure Korean surgeons do this. Not sure if it's a great idea TBH.
Is there any type of surgery that can narrow your head shape?
There's 2 doctors that do it apparently, but I couldn't find any other doctors beside them that offer this.
So a little skeptical, but am curious.

Aren't the Korean style surgeries ones that narrow head?
cheekbone reduction
zygoma reduction
Google it...
Here is one for example:

(It seems that my PS did something like one of those Koreat head flattening procedures to my head and also defattened my face without my consent. It looks awful and will age fast as soon as the too tight top skin relaxes. My idea of an attractive female head has fullness around upper cheeks, fat on lateral neck and nice brow bones that support eyelids etc.)
Apparently that's what I hear they can do.
Eppley isn't a korean surgeon though.
So he did both without your consent, or just defattened your face?
Seems like that could result in a lawsuit if he did it without permission??
I'm not female, but nice to know!
I have never met Eppley, thus it was not him.
Here is a picture that you can click and see what happens with these korean style surgeries:

The head narrows quite a bit.
(I'm still waiting for the doctor tell me what exactly happened since my head is so much smaller... I assume that not complete korean surgery, but some sort of elimination of fats and bones, that look like the "korean style".)
Interesting, thanks for the share.In USA and I did not ask for it, but my face looks like if something like those procedures were done to me. No cheekbones eg. were cracked broken, but seems like they were burred flat. I did not ask my face shape to be altered, but it looks to have a lot different shape now.
Did you have it done in Korea, or in the USA?
Eppley looks like a bit of a fruitcake tbh.I know he bombards the internet with posts.
