	Facial Feminization Surgery - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Facial Feminization Surgery (FFS) refers to elective surgical procedures to alter a 'masculine' face to become a 'feminine' face.
		FFS comprises bony and soft tissue surgery of the face and trachea but is generally not regarded to include facial hair removal and hair transplants, though a case could be made for their inclusion as well.
		Apart from these practitioners who perform surgery nearly exclusively upon transsexual and transgender women, it has also been taken upon by other maxillofacial and plastic surgeons as part of their practice, notably by Frans Noorman van der Dussen in Antwerp, Belgium.

	Transsexual Surgery: Its Pros and Cons
		Transsexual surgery is often thought of as synonymous with genital surgery, which is usually called sex reassignment surgery (SRS), i.e., vaginoplasty for MFs or phalloplasty for FMs.
		Specific complications of MF surgery found by Pfafflin and Junge included complete or partial necrosis of the vagina and labia, fistulas from the bladder or bowel into the vagina, stenosis of the urethra, and vaginas that were too short or too small for coitus.
		The latter include nerve injuries and bone infections (osteomyelitis) in the case of facial surgery, and injury to the vocal cords in the case of laryngeal surgery.

	More on Feminization
		Feminization is the practice, especially in female dominance, of switching the gender role of a male submissive.
		Hardcore feminization may also mean the male being the recipient of anal sex using a strap-on dildo.
		This can lead to apparent paradoxes, such as the humiliation of men by feminization, though it is readily resolved by seeing this as disclaiming traditional gender associations, and transference of coded images of weakness onto men.

	Lynn's Facial Feminization Surgery (FFS)
		The aim of FFS surgery is to eliminate or reduce many of the cross-gender-related deformities of the facial bones caused by late-pubertal testosterone masculinization in MtF transsexuals.
		The rapid masculinization of boys' facial features begins during puberty and continues on into their twenties under the influence of the male hormone testosterone, which also causes the development of facial hair and the deepening of the voice.
		Surgical feminization of masculinized faces can be done by recontouring the forehead, reducing or eliminating the browridge, smoothly re-contouring the nose-ridge down from the forehead, narrowing and reducing in size the jawbone and chin (with the chin repositioned at a new angle) and reshaping the trachea to eliminate the "Adam's apple".

		I also talked with a beautiful woman that had surgery with him and had problems with her nose and chin after having the works in pieces and she had to have it corrected with another surgeon after Dr. Ousterhout tried to fix her problem with a revision.
		At the end of the pre surgery consult Dr. O said that he had not made any measurements yet since it was a long day and he didn’t have time yet, but he would go over the x-rays before he goes to bed and reassured me not to worry.

	Facial Feminization Surgery in San Francisco, By Anonymous
		The advice Anonymous gives is reasonable: If you come to San Francisco for facial plastic surgery, it might be worthwhile to arrange for someone to be with you to serve as your advocate — someone who is not afraid to demand quality care on your behalf from nurses or from doctors, day or night.
		In the two visits I spent with Doug prior to surgery, I was very clear that I was concerned with the enormity of all the procedures, and the nine hours they would take.
		My advice to anyone considering this kind of surgery is simple: Have a nurse/advocate (a family member, or a close friend) there from the first consultation, and for most of the nine day recovery period -- unless home is close by, and an option.

		The anesthetist visited me briefly to discuss her part in the surgery, and I was then left alone to rest.

		Following the surgery the facial skin is very taught; it gradually softens over several months to produce a very natural rejuvenated appearance.
