Facial Masculinization Surgery in Beverly Hills
Facial masculinization surgery (FMS) is a transformative procedure that enhances, or in some cases creates traditionally masculine facial characteristics. Dr. Jonathan Sykes tailors his techniques to patients who seek a more defined and angular facial structure or are looking to better align their physical appearance to their gender identity.
As a top double board-certified facial plastic surgeon who has performed over 20,000 aesthetic and reconstructive surgeries, Dr. Sykes uses his expertise to deliver natural-looking, personalized, and balanced results for every unique patient.
What Is Facial Masculinization Surgery?
The differences between masculine and feminine faces can be subtle but distinct. Generally, masculine faces tend to exhibit stronger, more angular characteristics, while feminine faces are often softer and more rounded. Facial masculinization surgery is a highly specialized procedure that alters primary features.
- Forehead: Masculine foreheads are typically flatter, with a pronounced brow ridge
- Jawline and chin: A square, defined jawline and a broad, prominent chin appear more masculine
- Cheeks: Masculine cheekbones are often less prominent than feminine cheekbones
- Nose: Masculine noses tend to be larger and more angular
Performed by an expert in FMS, such as Dr. Sykes, this procedure addresses these differences by reshaping your facial structure to match your personal aesthetic goals and promote facial harmony.
What Aesthetic Changes Occur in Facial Masculinization Surgery?
Dr. Sykes will craft a tailored surgical plan based on your unique vision, ensuring the results complement your appearance, maintain facial proportion, and achieve your aesthetic goals.
- Forehead contouring creates a flatter, more angular forehead by contouring the bone and enhancing the brow ridge
- Sykes can reshape or augment your jawline to give it additional definition and enhance your chin for a bolder profile
- Reducing or contouring your cheeks minimizes roundness for a traditionally masculine shape.
- Rhinoplasty can masculinize your nose by broadening or reshaping it to create an angular appearance
What Are the Benefits of Facial Masculinization Surgery?
Improving your physical appearance is not the only advantage of FMS. This procedure can significantly elevate your confidence and self-image, particularly for nonbinary people and transgender men.
Dr. Sykes prioritizes symmetry and proportionality, delivering natural-looking results that suit your unique facial anatomy and bring out the best in you. Facial masculinization surgery provides permanent improvements, allowing you to enjoy your new look for years without the need for repeated procedures.
Dr. Sykes will work closely with you to understand your needs and wants. His extensive experience in facial surgery ensures a compassionate and tailored transformation with aesthetically pleasing outcomes that match your vision.
