An amazing end-to-end experience with outstanding results. Although Dr. Capitan and Dr. Simon are the founders, booking with FacialTeam really is a "team", with experts for different aspects of facial feminization surgery. In addition, the office staff manages a far more complete experience than just the surgery itself, this is more like booking an all inclusive holiday than a surgery! The office staff and coordinators were fantastic, all lodgings were booked by them as
I had a Type 3 forehead reconstruction and rhinoplasty with FacialTeam 1 month ago. Dr Capitán performed did the Type 3 and Dr. Bellinga did the rhinoplasty and I'm really pleased with the results! I had minimal swelling (photo is 1 week post-op) and most of the numbness is already gone. Just a minor region of numbness left on my forehead and tip of nose which are barely noticeable day-to-day and show signs of repairing (tingling) upon touch. Recovery was very tolerable with excellent

The Best Experience, First Class Treatment
Dr. Capitan and Facialteam in Marbella, Spain gave me the best experience ever! I've had forehead reduction surgery. Dr. Capitan is a warm person that is a genuinely caring person, the whole team is. He listens and answers all the questions and doubts you have. Thank you Dr. Capitan and Facialteam for all your hard work and dedication, and always putting a smile on my face. The genuine concern for your patients is appreciated during this big changes in our lives. Dr. Capitan,
As part of an ongoing transition, I wanted to take next steps with FFS by seeking forehead feminization surgery aka feminizing forehead reduction/contouring surgery along with chin reduction surgery to achieve correct proportions. I had wanted FFS for the longest time... my biggest concern was the typical hairline incision that usually exists when hairline lowering is employed as part forehead FFS. There was a very helpful virtual ffs web site that had lots of information and
I decided to transition about 2 years ago, but realized very quickly HRT alone wasn't going to get me to the state I wanted to be. I did consults with a couple of surgeons, but the Facial Team (Dr. Capitan and Dr. Simon) clearly stood out as the best I'd spoken to. I put my deposit down in April 2015 and reserved a date in October 2015. I was simply blown away by the quality of service, the hospital, the doctors, nurses, and other staff. If you're familiar with the Facial Team,
Hormones can only go so far with the feminisation of ones face during Male To Female gender transition. At the age of 42 and 11 months into my medical transition I underwent Facial Feminisation Surgery with Facial Team in picturesque Marbella, Spain. I placed my trust in the hands of this remarkable team of medical specialists who more than delivered on their objective of expected natural results, what they did for me was more than what I could ever have imagined; they delivered
As a transgender woman, my goal was to achieve a natural and acceptably female face, and to work with some notable experts in this highly specialised area. I chose Facial Team due to their highly professional approach. I had the following done in a 5-hour procedure: trachea shave (Adam's apple), chin narrowing with sliding genioplasty, lip lift, and forehead plus brow bossing smoothing. Their surgeons showed an excellent understanding of surgical technique and aesthetic balance.

Facial Team and Brenda - Spain
Hi, my name is Brenda and I'm 43 year old. Today I'm happy, credible and I have an identity! Thanks to Dr. Simon and Dr. Capitan, who did my face reloading and in spesific my forehead/orbital reduction & eyebrow lift + rinoplasty +chin and jaw contouring with osteotomy,today I can live, not survive! I'm working as makeup artist for the Italian TV, I have my own life, a boyfriend and I'm thanking every days to went in touch with Facial team years ago! I remember Ana and Lilia,
I am told often I don’t need facial feminization surgery. But I have to look at myself in the mirror and what I see is not the woman I am. So I’m going to get my face to match my inner vision as closely as I can. And then my body will follow, I want the right curves and shape to be a whole girl. I will look for surgeons who follow science in their quest to reverse the effects of testosterone and transform me back into the girl I was born ass.
I chose to undergo some limited FFS to remove male markers such as pronounced adams apple and brow bone ridge. The feminisation effects I sought were to open my eye area and achieve a more visible lip profile. I was directed to the facial team site by a friend and I found their page to be very informative about the procedures they use. I subsequently arranged a skype consultation and was very pleased with the surgeon (Dr Luis Capitan). On that basis I decided to proceed with FFS.
