Elodie’s Story
Several years ago, Elodie approached Facialteam to discuss the possibilities for facial feminization surgery with our team of surgeons. Elodie is a 48 year old patient who traveled from United Kingdom to have a consultation with our surgeons to evaluate her facial features and come up with the right selection of facial feminization procedures, completely personalized for Elodie. Based on her goals and the recommendations from our surgical team we came up with the following treatment plan:
As Elodie considered the area around her eyes had masculine traits and expressed her interest in a brow bone reduction, part of the process of feminizing the forehead region. Forehead feminization procedures at Facialteam aim to achieve a significant and specific change in the expression around the eyes, the ultimate goal of our FOREContour® method is to approximate the original contours and position of the facial bone and eyebrows, before hormones caused changes in puberty.
To emphasize the cheeks and make Elodie’s eyes appear larger, a feminizing rhinoplasty was recommended. As the central feature of the face, a more feminine nose often is key for the global result of facial feminization surgery.
Nose feminization is often combined with a forehead reconstruction to create a smooth transition from the brow bone to the nose.Just like the majority of trans women who have been through puberty, Elodie considered feminizing the area of the neck by reducing the size of Adam’s Apple.
Our method TContour® allows us to achieve natural and safe results in trachea shaves, with a less visible Adam’s Apple as a result.
To compliment the set of procedures, a blefaroplasty was performed to give the facial area more volume and projection.
