Facial feminization surgery (FFS) is an important process that touches the lives of many trans women and leaves deep scars. For them, visibility, self-esteem and social integration play a vital role in their self-confidence. FFS positively impacts these personal areas that reinforce self-worth. However, change takes time and requires a certain amount of sacrifice.

In this article, we will try to understand if it is possible to make this process more comfortable and less complicated. We will discuss everything that is curious about this very comprehensive approach, called “one-stage FFS”, in its clearest form.

What is One-Stage FFS?

“One-stage FFS” is the process of performing the major procedures of facial feminization such as forehead filing, chin contouring, rhinoplasty, tracheal shaving (Adam’s apple reduction), hairline feminization and eye contouring in the same surgery. The aim here is to both accelerate the physical transformation and provide psychological relief for trans women who have limited time and want to get immediate results.

Is FFS Possible in One Session?

Yes, in most cases it is possible for most people. However, the following criteria are taken into consideration when making this decision; it is planned depending on your general health condition, the scope of the changes you are aiming for and the experience of your surgeon.

With more than 10 years of experience, Dr. Mehmet F. Oktay aims to achieve optimum results in terms of aesthetic harmony, surgical safety and recovery time by planning these procedures together. He especially addresses the expectations and needs of trans women in detail.

What are the Advantages of “One-Stage FFS”?

There are many advantages to this one-stage, comprehensive process. Here are the main advantages:

  • One-Stage Recovery: Regardless of the nature of the surgery, the postoperative period is often difficult. Performing all procedures at once shortens the recovery time both physically and emotionally.
  • Psychological Relief:
Seeing the results of the surgery and the change in the face as a whole can reduce dysphoria. It provides a faster connection with identity.
  • Cost Savings: Since the operating room is entered only once, the total cost is usually more economical than piecemeal surgeries. It is also advantageous in terms of travel, accommodation and leave processes.

Is it Suitable for Everyone?

Unfortunately, one-stage FFS may not be suitable for all trans women. It is possible to list the reasons for this as follows:

  • If the scope is very large (for example, if both chin filing, wide rhinoplasty and forehead reconstruction are required), the surgeon may need to divide the procedures.
  • Health history may make it difficult to operate in a single session, especially for people with chronic conditions such as heart, blood pressure, clotting or risks related to anesthesia.

The surgeon’s job is not only to perform the procedure, but also to make the safest and most effective plan without putting their patients at risk.

With more than 10 years of experience working with trans women, Dr. Okyay pays attention to the following issues in one-stage FFS planning for the health and safety of his patients:

  • Preservation of expression muscles and facial expressions,
  • Revealing feminine details that will contribute to the social transition process.

One Time Transformation is Possible but Personalized

One-stage FFS is a great comfort for many trans women and a great financial and time-saving option. However, when making this decision, it is necessary to make sure that it is taken because it is suitable for your body and needs, not because “everyone is doing it”.

With a detailed planning, Dr. Okyay aims to liberate your inner world by taking this transformation beyond its external appearance. A world where you can find yourself in your face and be completely yourself is possible. In a single session and with the right steps.
