Forehead Reduction With Implant Or Bone Graft

Louisiana rates for HCPCS 21138

Reshapes a prominent or uneven forehead by shaving and contouring the bone, then adding an implant material or a piece of the patient's own bone to smooth and even out the result. It is used for a heavy brow ridge or a forehead contour that stands out, whether from natural shape, an old injury, or a bone condition. The incision is usually hidden behind the hairline.
