(BTW, the Americans have dropped the O at the start of oestrogen that medical people here usually retain. Oestrogen has done almost nothing to my face in the 16 months I've been taking it. So far as I can tell he's the only one in Australia who will remove the brow ridge.

I'm hoping for surgery in the new year but I'm using a local surgeon, having found one locally with the necessary skills. It delivers precision optics for high-resolution 3D images in an intuitive, lightweight and easy to handle image capture system. The VECTRA H1 handheld imaging system brings clinical-quality 3D imaging to any practice. While they're on the other side of the world the Facial Team in Spain have a good website that explains a lot of the possibilities if you look at the drop-down menus under FFS and Aesthetics in their header. Vectra imaging takes away those concerns, by taking the uncertainty out of plastic surgery. There's other features that can make a big difference in some people as well. While it's not surgical, getting rid of facial hair is also a big task that many of us insist upon. I had a hair transplant to my bald temples in May and its starting to grow in nicely, although it will probably be several more months before I will feel comfortable enough to get rid of my wig. The other more obvious way, again with a lot of variation is our hairline. Most men, although by no means all, have a bony ridge just above their eyebrows and this is one of the most common although often unconscious ways in which we can be spotted as trans when presenting as women. A CT scan beforehand may be recommended, to produce detailed images of bone and soft tissue to inform the surgeon as to which sort of procedures will work best, particularly for forehead and jaw work. I personally recommend not having someone else in the room, and having as frank and honest a discussion as possible about features, which bother one the most, what one might wish for, and what can actually be done (a LOT, with the right surgeon!). The decisions as to exactly what procedures need to be done are very personal, and should come from a detailed discussion with the surgeon, one on one. It's what almost completely ended the misgendering, and the odd looks I could get in restrooms. My personal experience is that FFS is the real gender confirmation surgery, the thing that finally let me feel like I was accepted within the community of women. People may even have political/activist arguments against or for it! FFS work is tremendously personal, and the need for it varies wildly across the trans population.
