Facial Feminization Surgery
Facial feminization surgery (FFS) involves procedures that soften masculine facial features to create a more traditionally feminine appearance. Dr. Liu offers several procedures that can be tailored to each patient’s goals.
Cheek Feminization
Cheek feminization enhances the cheeks by increasing their volume and definition, often using implants or fat transfer. This procedure helps create a softer, more feminine appearance.
Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
Eyelid surgery can rejuvenate the eye area by removing excess skin and fat from the upper or lower eyelids. This procedure results in a more open and feminine eye appearance, reducing signs of aging or tiredness.
Facelift
A facelift tightens sagging skin, reduces wrinkles, and redefines the jawline, giving the face a youthful and feminine look. This surgery is particularly effective in creating smoother contours from the lower face to the neck.
Body Feminization Surgery
Body feminization surgery reshapes the body to create a more traditionally feminine silhouette. Dr. Liu offers a variety of procedures to enhance curves and create a harmonious body contour.
Liposuction
Liposuction targets and removes stubborn fat deposits in areas such as the abdomen, waist, and thighs to create a more feminine, hourglass figure.
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
A tummy tuck tightens the abdominal muscles and removes excess skin to achieve a flatter, more toned stomach, which complements a feminine figure.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances the size and shape of the breasts, using either implants or fat transfer. This procedure creates fuller, more proportionate breasts, enhancing the overall femininity of the body.
Breast Reduction
For individuals seeking smaller breasts, breast reduction removes excess tissue and reshapes the breasts to achieve a more balanced and comfortable size.
Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)
The Brazilian butt lift enhances the size and shape of the buttocks using fat transfer, creating a more feminine and curvaceous lower body. This procedure also improves the proportions of the hips and waist for a more balanced silhouette.
Masculinization Surgery
Masculinization surgery helps transgender men and non-binary individuals achieve a more traditionally masculine appearance. Dr. Liu customizes procedures to help patients achieve a strong, defined look.
- FTM Top Surgery: Top surgery is a critical component of masculinization for transgender men. Dr. Liu performs FTM top surgery to remove breast tissue and create a flatter, more masculine chest. The procedure is tailored to each patient’s body type, ensuring natural-looking results with minimal scarring.
- Liposuction: Liposuction removes fat from areas like the waist, hips, and thighs to create a more angular, masculine body shape. This procedure helps create the leaner, defined contours often associated with masculinity.
Non-Binary Surgery
Non-binary surgery offers flexible and individualized procedures that allow patients to achieve a physical appearance that aligns with their unique gender identity. Dr. Liu works closely with non-binary individuals to create customized plans that blend masculine and feminine traits or achieve a gender-neutral appearance.
