This beautiful patient of Dr. Mittermiller's chose feminizing as part of her journey—an important step in aligning her appearance with how she sees herself.

Before surgery, she felt her nose drew attention in ways that didn’t reflect her identity. Together, we focused on creating a softer, more balanced shape that feels natural and affirming to her.
