It's more prominent on one side which is the side in the picture, it makes me feel masculine. Is there any way to fix it? And if so what would the price range be? Thanks

Yes, the bones above the eye socket can be reduced in order to feminize this area of the face. Be sure to see a surgeon specializing in facial aesthetic procedures.Best,

Absolutely the bone above the eye can be reduced. It's usually done through a hairline incision and it can certainly feminize the face.  In fact, it's one of the primary procedures done on patients transitioning from male to female.  Choose a surgeon who is very experienced in this relatively uncommon surgery. Good luck!

Hello Bambi44,The answer is yes, your brow bone can be made smaller.  There are several approaches but it involves shaving down the bone.  As this is not a frequently done procedure, I'd recommend you consult with a facial plastic surgeon.I hope this helps and good luck.

If you are asking about reducing the bony prominence over the eye, then yes, that is a relatively simple procedure that any experienced plastic surgeon should be able to handle for you. You are correct in thinking that reducing the heavy look of the bone will better feminize the appearance.
