Facial Feminization Beverly Hills

The most serious risks of facial feminization surgery are the same as any surgical procedure requiring general anesthesia for an extended period. There is always a risk of an adverse reaction; however, this is rare, and your surgeon orders pre-operative tests to ensure you are in good enough general health to undergo surgery. Other risks, such as scarring, blood clots, implant infection, suture rupture, nerve damage, and facial asymmetry are less likely to occur if you choose a surgeon with plenty of experience and a proven track record of success in performing the surgery. That said, you should always feel comfortable discussing the risks and complications with your doctor to make an informed decision while being aware that all surgeries contain some element of risk.

Yes. If you’re wary about going under the knife, talk to your practitioner about non- or minimally-invasive cosmetic options like injectable fillers, botulinum toxin, and ThreadLift procedures. There are many ways to achieve facial feminization without undergoing surgery, though most methods require repeat treatments to maintain the desired effect. Commonly, clients seeking non-surgical feminization opt for injectable fillers in the cheeks and lips, botulinum toxin to narrow the jawline, eyebrow reshaping, hair transplants, and facial hair removal. While surgery will produce more dramatic and permanent results, there are plenty of ways to achieve a more feminine look that don’t require general anesthesia or lengthy recovery times.
