Compared to the typical female mandible, the adult male mandible tends to be wider, vertically taller, and has prominence of the angles. As these differences can affect gender perception, transwomen may achieve a smaller, tapered, and feminine lower jaw contour via feminizing mandibuloplasty. Modifications to the mandible and soft tissues are performed via an intraoral incision. Overall, this surgical procedure has a low risk of major complications and patients typically show high rates of postoperative satisfaction.
期刊介绍:
This large-size, atlas-format journal presents detailed illustrations of new surgical procedures and techniques in otology, rhinology, laryngology, reconstructive head and neck surgery, and facial plastic surgery. Feature articles in each issue are related to a central theme by anatomic area or disease process. The journal will also often contain articles on complications, diagnosis, treatment or rehabilitation. New techniques that are non-operative are also featured.
