FACIAL FEMINIZATION SURGERY (FFS) FAQ

Who is a candidate for trans-FFS surgery?

Cosmetically modifying the face to alter facial features helps many patients feel more comfortable in their own skin. If you are bothered by facial features that appear too traditionally masculine, FFS may be the right fit for you. It is popular among transgender women that were assigned male at birth (AMAB) as well as non-binary trans people that would prefer more feminine or gender-neutral facial features. Cisgender women also seek FFS surgery if they feel certain facial features appear “too masculine”. A consultation with a plastic surgeon at The Aesthetic Center can help you decide if FFS is the next step in your male to female transition.

What are the characteristics of a feminine face?

The surgeons at The Aesthetic Center are highly trained in regard to facial anatomy. The key to creating a more feminine face lies in the bone structure. Areas such as the jaw, hairline, nose, eyebrows, and forehead can all hint at gender identity. Whereas classically male faces tend to have chiseled features, feminine faces tend to have softer contours and a more delicate bone structure.

For example, it is possible to make the forehead look more feminine by shaving down a prominent brow bone. Nose reshaping with rhinoplasty can make the nose smaller while ensuring it is perfectly proportionate to your face. Males tend to have thin lips, so lip augmentation with lip implants or injectable fillers can make them appear more feminine. A chin reduction (genioplasty) and jaw surgery can soften a harsh jawline. The possibilities are endless.

How should I prepare for FFS?

While many trans female patients choose to take hormone replacement therapy to promote a more feminine appearance, it is advisable to stop HRT at least two weeks before and after surgery. Please be sure to advise your surgeon of any and all medications you are taking, including prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, homeopathic remedies, and vitamins.

Our surgeon or anesthesiologist will also ask you to refrain from nicotine use. It is best to stop using nicotine products at least six weeks before and after surgery to facilitate healing. The Aesthetic Center team is dedicated to patient safety. If you have any concerns, you are always welcome to consult with our medical specialists at any time, both before and after surgery.
