Richard Balikian MD / wikimedia · BYAbout facial feminisation surgery (ffs) in Seoul
Facial feminisation surgery combines several bone- and soft-tissue procedures — such as forehead/brow contouring, hairline advancement, rhinoplasty, jaw and chin reshaping, and tracheal shave — to soften features associated with a masculine appearance. It is often a central part of gender-affirming care and is highly individualised to each patient's anatomy and goals.
Because FFS frequently combines multiple bone procedures in one operation, it is major surgery with a meaningful recovery and requires a surgeon with specific, demonstrated FFS expertise. Patients increasingly travel for it to access experienced specialists or more accessible pricing, making surgeon portfolio and accredited facilities the key considerations.
