This patient came to Dr. Pang after previous elsewhere, seeking revisions to achieve the results she'd always envisioned. Her goal was to soften her facial profile for better overall proportion and harmony. Dr. Pang collaborated closely with her to create a comprehensive surgical plan tailored to her unique features.

To accomplish this, Dr. Pang removed the corners of her jaw (shown in image 3) to create a softer, more feminine contour and refined her previous brow lift and rhinoplasty for improved results. He also performed a genioplasty and lip lift to complement her new facial structure. Post-operation, you can already see how her face appears slimmer from the front view and her profile has that beautiful softness she was seeking!

Revisional surgery requires specialized expertise and a deep understanding of facial anatomy. Dr. Pang is experienced in correcting and refining previous work to help patients achieve their goals.

If you're considering revisional facial feminization surgery or want to learn more about your options, we're here to help. 🧡
