What Happens During Your FFS Consultation
FFS is not a single operation — it’s a coordinated approach across three zones of the face. The upper third of the face includes forehead contouring, brow bone reduction, and hairline lowering. The middle third addresses the nose, cheeks, and upper lip through procedures like rhinoplasty and lip lift. The lower third focuses on jaw and chin reshaping for a tapered, feminine silhouette.
Patients frequently ask whether they need to be on hormone therapy before surgery. The answer is no — candidacy is based on your goals and overall health, not HRT status. For out-of-state patients, our Chicago team coordinates virtual consultations, travel scheduling, and post-operative check-ins to make the process as seamless as possible. Dr. Dorafshar will also review payment plans and insurance documentation during your visit.
