Facial feminization surgery (cirugía de feminización facial)

The protocol for patients in their gender-affirming process already has some well-established steps, such as the importance of psychological support and the need for appropriate hormone therapy. Heretofore undisputed concepts such as the significance of genital reconstruction in this protocol have started to give way to more essential underlying questions like the influence of facial gender reassignment in patients who are going to play a different gender role from the one they were assigned at birth. Transgender patients across the world are increasingly seeking gender confirming surgery like facial feminization although, unfortunately, it’s a challenge to encounter experienced providers able to assess their needs appropriately. As part of its commitment to high-quality healthcare for the transgender community, Facialteam Research & Education presents the third edition of the Facial Feminization Surgery Training Program, the first professional training program in Facial Feminization Surgery and the only international program of its type. The FFS TRAINING PROGRAM offers a higher degree of specialization, essential for any surgeon who wants to delve more deeply into the field of Facial Feminization Surgery and accelerate their learning curve in order to perform surgery equipped with quality criteria based on the experience and dedication of a leading surgical team in the field. The program is aimed at professionals whose objective is to develop highly specialized gender units within their institutions.
