Can I still get some parts of Facial Feminization Surgery even though I have a jaw deformity? (photos)

hazel1996Jan 30, 2022
25 year old trans woman I think I have a more androgens appearance at the moment and would like to feminise it a bit. I do have a jaw deformity but i'm never planning on getting that fixed so FFS would have to work around my deformity, I have a severe class 2 division 2 malocclusion. I just want a more feminine look while keeping the jaw deformity. I was thinking of maybe a cheek argumentation and maybe some other changes. the scabbing from a rash from when the photo was taken

FFS. For the TG patient. I have done FFS for 45 years and I  would need to see you to determine if a mini lift would be indicated or a full face/neck lift. A chin reduction and contouring can be done at the same time. Your hollowing can be improved with Volume which lasts 2 years.
