What can be done to make my masculine face look more feminine and inviting? (Photos)

Question

I am a Cis woman, but have looked into FFS surgery. But my biggest issues are a misaligned jaw which makes my right side look like it's curving to the left. I don't like my large cleft chin and I would like my cheekbones slightly higher and bigger. I'm looking for providers in Portland, Oregon or surround areas.

Toby Mayer, MD · Answer

Facial feminization for a more feminine and attractive appearance. Based on my 45 years of FFS I would suggest a Rhinoplasty -hump removal and tip refinement etc  and a chin reduction and contouring. Your cheeks are fine. A lip lift with fat augmentation would also be helpful. No X-rays are needed for the jaw. See a very experienced FFS surgeon who can show you dozens of results that look natural!

Barry L. Eppley, MD, DMD · Answer

Desquaring your chin and jawline by bone reduction, as you have indicated, would provide the biggest facial feminization effect. (aka v-line surgery)  Due to the asymmetry of your lower jaw preoperative x-rays are needed to determine how the bone reduction would be different between the two sides. The chin cleft requires fat grafting. Making the cheekbones higher/bigger requires implant augmentation which may require a custom design to optimally achieve the desired effect.,
