I Want More of a Feminine Look. What Does my Face Need? (Photo)

Your request to look more feminine could lead you into a mindfield of trouble. If you just show your face in a photo I can guarantee you that the majority of people looking at it will say that is a feminine face. If you go ahead with any surgery even if you have a good result there is a significant chance you will not be happy because the parameter for judging the result have not been clearly set up in your mind before surgery. It is much better if you go in to surgery with the mindset of removing crow's feet, smoothing out hollows under the eyes or changing specific aspects of the nasal tip shape etc. That way you will have something by which to judge the result after surgery and thereby be happy with your surgery after the fact. That is not the case for every woman but judging from the photos applies to you.

Hello,You have a nice face. While there are many things that can be done to give a more feminine appearance, I would focus on what it is you like and what it is you would like to change. A consultation with a plastic surgeon can help you define this as well. You two should be able to sit in front of a mirror together and come up with a plan. All the best in your journey,Dr. BlaggAustin, TX

You are a very pretty woman. Specifically you have nice eyes and a sharp lower 1/3rd of your face. This is key. 

With some augmentation of the lateral malar (cheek bone) area and a more harmonious transition from the eye to the cheek (tear trough area) your face would take on that more heart shaped look that is associated with beauty. It would allow people to focus on your eyes. Your brows are in a good position with the peak just lateral to the most lateral portion of the iris (colored portion of eyeball). This can be emphasized by giving the appearance of a mat (reference to framing paintings) with fat transfer. Again the key is to have the focus drawn to your eyes and not shadows surrounding them. The autofat transfer allows us to smoother transition of facial subunits to diminish shadows and hallows. 

Bets of luck,

Obviously, you have a feminine face and the desire to look more feminine and attractive to the opposite sex is natural. The hallmark of a feminine versus a masculine face can be enumerated going from bottom to top. Women have a less angulated & prominent jawline; fuller, poutier lips; a smaller, upturned delicate nose; high cheekbones; seemingly more defined eyes with crisper creases; higher arched eyebrows and a more convex forehead with lower anterior hairline. So in your case, I would suggest a reductive rhinoplasty, perhaps some slight degree of lip augmentation and maybe even a slight degree of cheek augmentation with fillers.

Hi N,

The lower 1/3 of your nose draws attention away from the rest of your face.  You most likely have your Dad's nose, which is giving you the perception that you would like to appear more feminine.    I would recommend a rhinoplasty and leave the rest of your pretty face alone.  The other minor feature would be to add a little more arch to the lateral 1/3 of your eyebrow with properly placed Botox or Dysport.  Good luck and be well.

Your face is already feminine, but would look more refined with a rhinoplasty to thine the tip as well as any other parts of your nose that don't show on this one picture. Make sure you see an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon whose results you like and speak with their live patients.
