Facial feminisation surgery

Plastic surgery

Harmony, balance and identity. Facial feminisation surgery (FFS) is a series of cosmetic and reconstructive procedures designed to make facial features more delicate, proportionate and in line with typically feminine standards.
At AraMedica, we approach this journey with expertise, sensitivity and a holistic view of the individual, because true harmony stems from feeling comfortable in one’s own body and identity.
The procedure is suitable both for transgender people wishing to complete their transition and for cisgender women who wish to soften their features or rebalance the shape of their face.
Every surgical plan is personalised: our surgeons, experts in plastic and reconstructive surgery, carefully assess anatomical proportions to achieve an authentic, natural and harmonious result.
