Common Facial Feminisation Surgeries include the following:

This can help to reduce the projection of the jawline as well as create a more oval or squarer jawline – depending on your preferred look. This would be a procedure performed by Dr Yannis Alexandrides, our Founder and Medical Director or 111 Harley St. And, in our clinic, we use an ultrasonic, preservation technique made possible because of a medical instrument called the Piezo. This is essentially a ‘jaw shaving’ surgery – but thanks to the Piezo (formally known as the Piezotome), it uses ultrasonic energy to accurately sculpt the bone while leaving the surrounding tissue undamaged.

The jawline is one of the most significant characteristics of a traditionally male face, so this procedure works to not only soften the contours of the chin but also the jawline too – working to create a gentle curve from earlobe to chin.

A patient of ours who recently underwent a jaw shave surgery said that the recovery was ‘easy’ and ‘much easier than other surgeries I’ve had’. See the results of her secondary Jaw Reshaping surgery below:

A Rhinoplasty can often make a great difference to your aesthetics as it sits centrally in the face and as men’s nose skin tends to be thicker, this can give the impression of a wider nose. This is where an Alar Base Reduction comes in… An Alar Base Reduction works to improve the triangularity of the nose – reducing the width between nostril to nostril as well as overall size of the base of the nose.

Typically, sought-after ‘female’ Rhinoplasty aesthetic outcomes, would be achieving a smaller, upturned nose with a lifted tip.

Depending on the extent of the work being done, some Alar Base Reductions or Nose Tip Surgeries can be performed under local anaesthetic – so please be sure to ask your surgeon which route you prefer to go down.

A Brow Lift works to raise the eyebrows as well as reduce the size of the forehead. Think of this as a 2-in-1 procedure to a) bring the hairline forehead and b) improve the appearance of low eyebrows. In turn, this can help to make the eyes look more awake too as a heavier brow can cause the eyelids to droop – so a Brow Lift could actually be a 3-in-1 procedure!

There are two types of Brow Lifts Dr Yannis performs: a Hairline Brow Lift and an Endoscopic Brow Lift. They essentially do very similar things; however, the incision line is different. See below:

Works to reduce the space between the nose and the upper lip called the ‘philtrum’.

A Lip Lift can also help to subtly show more of the upper lip, giving the impression of fuller lips and can improve the appearance of the Cupid’s bow. This is a minor procedure that can be performed under local anaesthetic and is often referred to as a ‘Bullhorn Lip Lift’, as the amount of skin taken from just under the nose, unusually looks like the shape of a bullhorn.
