Sagging Jaw Skin 2 Years After Facial Feminization Surgery - What Are Possible Causes? (photos)

Rhinoplasty for a more feminine and attractive appearance. That is all you would need and don’t be “sold” another procedure. This is based on my 50 years of Rhinoplasty surgery. Look for a very experienced rhinoplasty surgeon who can show you dozens of natural results.
