What is Facial Feminization Surgery (FFS)?
Facial Feminization Surgery (FFS) is designed to soften facial features that are commonly perceived as masculine and create a more traditionally feminine appearance. Many of these characteristics develop during puberty under the influence of testosterone and may include changes to the brow, nose, jawline, chin, cheeks, upper lip, hairline, and neck. While these differences are often subtle, they can have a significant impact on how a person's face is perceived.
Some masculine facial features may be improved with non-surgical treatments such as hormone therapy, hair restoration, or laser hair removal. However, structural features such as a prominent brow bone, a larger nose, flatter cheeks, a longer upper lip, a stronger jawline, or a visible Adam's apple typically require surgery to achieve meaningful change. Facial Feminization Surgery combines one or more procedures to create facial harmony and align a patient's appearance with their gender identity and personal goals.
For many individuals, FFS can be a profoundly affirming step in their transition. Research has shown that gender-affirming facial surgery can help reduce gender dysphoria, improve quality of life, and support overall emotional well-being by helping patients feel more comfortable and confident in their appearance.

Who’s a Candidate for Facial Feminization Surgery?
If you're considering Facial Feminization Surgery (FFS), one of the first questions you may have is whether you're a good candidate. The answer depends on your unique anatomy, goals, and the changes you'd like to achieve - not on any single gender identity.
Many FFS patients are transgender women seeking to soften facial features that contribute to gender dysphoria or that are commonly perceived as masculine. However, Facial Feminization Surgery can also benefit transfeminine, nonbinary, and gender-diverse individuals who wish to achieve a more feminine facial appearance. In addition, some cisgender women with naturally stronger facial features and cisgender men seeking a softer or more balanced appearance may also be candidates. FFS procedures can also improve facial harmony and address asymmetry, helping patients achieve features that feel more aligned with their personal aesthetic goals.
Common areas addressed during Facial Feminization Surgery include:
Brow bone and forehead
Eyebrows
Hairline
Nose
Cheekbones
Lips
Jawline and chin
Because every face is unique, no two treatment plans are exactly alike. During your consultation, your surgeon will take the time to understand your goals, evaluate your facial anatomy, and discuss the procedures that may best help you achieve the look you envision.
While each patient has unique desires as it relates to FFS, there are some typical Facial Feminization Surgery procedures that seek to give patients a softer, more traditionally feminine appearance.
