Facial Feminization Surgery

Facial Gender affirmation surgery is a set of procedures intended to feminize or masculinize the faces of transgender individuals. Usually, it is to feminize the face when the transgender person decides to transition to trans-woman.

In India, transgender is recognized as the third gender. As of the 2011 census, there is almost 5 lakh transgender living in India. Transgender medicine is slowly being recognized as a required and important part of medicine and society.

Earlier when the transgender person decided to transition to trans-woman, genital reassignment/sex reassignment was the most sought and advised procedure.
With time people have realized that gender is first known through the face of the person. FFS is done so that others recognize and respond
to the patients face as the face of a woman!
