Realize Your Authentic Self

Navigating the complex journey of gender identity can be a deeply personal and emotional process. When the gender assigned at birth conflicts with one's true sense of self, it often leads to a profound sense of dysphoria and the desire for alignment between one's inner identity and external appearance. Embracing gender affirmation and transitioning is a courageous step towards embracing authenticity, self-acceptance, and a genuine sense of well-being.

In addition to individuals seeking gender affirmation, we recognize that many people, regardless of gender identity, may feel dissatisfied with certain facial features. Some women, for instance, may desire a more traditionally feminine appearance and wish to enhance their facial features accordingly.

At PryorHealth, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to feel comfortable and confident in their own skin. Our skilled surgeons are adept at understanding individual preferences and tailoring facial feminization surgery procedures to achieve the desired results.

What is Facial Feminization?

Facial feminization refers to cosmetic procedures that give the face a more classically feminine appearance. While it is most popular among those transitioning from male to female, it is also available to biological females interested in refining facial features that are too masculine-looking for their preference.

What types of facial feminization procedures are available?

Every anatomical feature of your face conveys hints about your gender identity to the world. Here is an overview of some of the Rockford facial feminization surgery services we offer:

Adam’s Apple Reduction

An Adam’s apple shave, also known as a tracheal shave, removes the bulge from the center of the neck, which is typically more prominent in post-pubescent males.

Brow Bossing Reduction

Biologic males tend to have a more prominent brow ridge than females. Shaving the brow bone gives the eyebrows a flatter and more feminine appearance, most noticeable when looking at the patient’s side profile.

Brow Lift

Biological females tend to have slightly more raised eyebrows than their male counterparts. Lifting the brow may also eliminate forehead lines and open the eyes so they sparkle.

Cheek Augmentation

High-cheekbones are very in-demand as they lend the face a more characteristically feminine appearance. Augmenting the cheekbones, whether accomplished surgically or through dermal fillers, gives the face a more sculpted, rounder appearance.

Lip Augmentation

Lip augmentation can make thin lips appear more feminine by enhancing fullness and defining the cupid’s bow. Options may include dermal filler injections or surgical lip augmentation with a bullhorn lip lift.

Rhinoplasty

A feminine-looking nose has daintier features and smooth contours. Feminizing rhinoplasty may entail refining the nasal tip, shaving down a dorsal bump, adjusting the alar wings, and correcting septum deviation linked to snoring.

Candidates for Facial Feminization

Issues addressed by facial feminization surgery include minimizing traditionally masculine traits such as a large Adam’s apple, broad nose, protruding brow ridge, thin lips, squared jawline, or low-lying cheekbones. To be considered, you should not be a smoker and not currently pregnant or breastfeeding. The ideal candidates have good physical and mental health and realistic expectations.
