Facial Feminization Surgery Texas
What does Facial Feminization Surgery Involve?
We Accept All Private Insurances
It can be tough to feel like yourself when your face doesn’t reflect who you are inside. Facial feminization surgery (FFS) can help patients experiencing gender dysphoria due to their facial appearance feel more like themselves. It can also help prevent misgendering or awkward social situations. We specialize in helping people in Texas (and beyond!) feel more comfortable and confident through FFS. It’s more than just looking different; it’s about feeling whole.
What Is Facial Feminization Surgery?
Facial feminization surgery (FFS) encompasses a variety of procedures that soften and feminize facial features. It is often a pivotal step in affirming gender identity for transgender women, nonbinary individuals, and others seeking a more traditionally feminine appearance.
FFS may include surgical procedures like brow bone reduction, rhinoplasty, and jaw contouring. We also offer non-surgical options like fillers and Botox. It’s all about creating a harmonious and feminine look that aligns with your inner self. This surgery is not merely cosmetic—it profoundly impacts self-esteem, confidence, and mental health, helping patients feel more aligned with their gender identity.
Limitations In Texas
We understand that accessing this kind of care can be difficult in Texas. Challenges can include:
- Insurance Coverage Gaps: Many patients in Texas struggle to secure insurance coverage for gender-affirming procedures, including FFS. Even when covered, the process to get approval can be long, tedious, and frequently denied.
- Limited Access to Specialists: Texas has a shortage of surgeons specializing in facial feminization surgery. Patients often find themselves traveling out of state to receive care from experienced professionals.
- Social Barriers: For some, Texas’s political climate and societal attitudes create additional stress, making it difficult to find affirming care locally.
These barriers prompt many patients to seek care in more inclusive states, such as Washington, where providers like Dr. Sajan welcome patients with understanding and exceptional expertise.

Before And After
Common Procedures Performed During Facial Feminization Texas
Facial feminization surgery includes a variety of procedures tailored to each patient’s unique features and goals. Some of the most common options include:
Brow Lift
Male eyebrows typically sit lower on the brow, almost below the brow bone. A brow lift raises the brows and creates a feminine arch. This procedure also helps to reduce any unwanted sagging of the brows, which is more common in males or older women.
Brow Bone Reduction
Reduces the prominence of the brow ridge, creating a softer, more feminine forehead.
Rhinoplasty
Reshapes the nose to achieve a more feminine appearance. This may involve narrowing the nasal bridge, refining the tip, or adjusting the nostrils.
Lip Lift
Elevates the upper lip for a shorter distance between the nose and lip, enhancing femininity.
Jaw Contouring
Slims and reshapes the jawline to reduce angularity and create a softer appearance.
Hairline Feminization
Lowers and reshapes the hairline to address a receding or masculine pattern.
Hair Transplant
Adds density and reshapes the hairline to further feminize the face.
Non-Surgical Enhancements
- Lip and Cheek Fillers: Add volume to achieve a more feminine appearance.
- Botox: Smooths wrinkles and softens features.
- Laser Hair Removal: Removes unwanted facial hair for a smoother look.

Facial Feminization Results
Idaho facial feminization creates stunning results for all patients. Most patients can expect to begin seeing results two weeks after the surgery. However, the overall swelling can sometimes take months to disappear completely. Depending on the surgeries used, some swelling may be more prominent than others, but all patients agree that the wait is worth the results. The results are permanent, as changes to cartilage and bone cannot be reversed. Some cosmetic procedures, like a brow lift or lip lift, change with age, but this is common with all older women.
