Facial Feminization
Facial feminization surgery (FFS) involves procedures to soften masculine facial features and enhance feminine characteristics. At Saxon MD, we use customized approaches like brow bone reduction and lip lift to align facial features with gender identity. Our techniques prioritize natural results and faster recovery, supported by Dr. Saxon's fellowship training with FFS pioneer Dr. Jeffrey Spiegel. Patients benefit from comprehensive care, including postoperative support and multidisciplinary coordination for gender affirmation journeys.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty reshapes the nose to improve proportion and harmony with facial features. Dr. Saxon employs advanced techniques to address structural concerns while maintaining functional integrity. The procedure can correct asymmetry, refine the nasal tip, or adjust bridge contours. Patients receive detailed preoperative counseling to align surgical plans with aesthetic goals, ensuring results that enhance facial balance without compromising breathing function or natural appearance.
Blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty rejuvenates the upper and lower eyelids by removing excess skin and fat. Dr. Saxon's approach addresses hooding, under-eye bags, and asymmetry to create a refreshed look. The procedure combines precision with artistry, using discreet incisions to minimize scarring. Recovery support includes steroid protocols to reduce swelling, ensuring patients achieve youthful, alert-eyed results that harmonize with their overall facial aesthetics.
Tracheal Shave
Tracheal shave reduces prominence of the Adam's apple for a smoother neck contour. Dr. Saxon's technique preserves vocal cord integrity through precise cartilage visualization during surgery. The procedure uses a small incision for minimal scarring and includes postoperative care to manage swelling. Ideal candidates include transgender women and others seeking gender-affirming facial refinement, with results that enhance neck aesthetics without affecting voice quality.
Buccal Fat Removal
Buccal fat removal slims the cheeks by excising deep facial fat pads. Performed through intraoral incisions, this procedure creates a more contoured jawline with minimal visible scarring. Dr. Saxon tailors fat removal to maintain natural facial volume while achieving sculpted results. Recovery includes compression therapy to optimize healing, with final outcomes becoming apparent after 6 months of swelling resolution.
