Are you transitioning, but have a prominent chin, a heavy brow, or a strong lower jaw that you feel detracts from your femininity? Would you like your appearance to more closely match the way you feel inside? If so, perhaps you're considering facial feminization surgery (FFS). For many transgendered women, having their facial features refined is an important step in their transition. Some individuals consider it the most essential part of their transformation. Jordan Deschamps-Braley, M.D., is an accomplished plastic surgeon who specializes in FFS. His partner, Douglas Ousterhout, M.D., is a pioneer in FFS and has performed these surgeries for decades. Topics they cover include: scalp advancement, forehead feminization, temple augmentation, cheek contouring, nose reshaping, lip reshaping, chin feminization, lower jaw tapering, thyroid cartilage reduction, lower jaw repositioning, upper jaw repositioning, facelifts, and hair transplants. The authors also provide information on the recovery process for each procedure as well as side effects to expect and potential complications. This book also contains before-and-after photos of FFS patients.
