Necessity of Facial Contouring in Feminization Surgery for Chinese Transgender Females

The study concluded that facial contouring was essential in feminization surgery for Chinese transgender females, significantly improving their satisfaction and psychological well-being. It involved 50 participants and highlighted the importance of modifying specific facial features like the forehead, nose, and jawline to align with typical female aesthetics. The research emphasized that facial feminization surgery (FFS), including procedures like mandibular angle osteotomy, genioplasty, and malarplasty reduction, was crucial for alleviating gender dysphoria and aiding social adaptation. The findings underscored the necessity of incorporating facial contouring into surgical plans for transgender females seeking feminization.
