Types of Gender Affirmation Surgery We Offer
For transgender women, this most often means facial feminization surgery (FFS), a structured set of procedures that softens bone structure across the upper third, middle third, and lower third of the face. For transgender men and nonbinary individuals, facial masculinization surgery (FMS) follows an augmentative approach to strengthen and define masculine features.
Surgical options may include forehead contouring and brow bone reduction, rhinoplasty, lip lift, jaw contouring, brow lift, and more.
