Quick Questions:

What makes a face look feminine?

Facial appearance is influenced by bone structure, proportions, and fat distribution. A narrower jaw, smaller chin, fuller cheeks, softer contours, and certain forehead or brow characteristics may contribute to a more feminine appearance.

Why does my face still look feminine after testosterone?

Testosterone can change facial fat distribution, skin, and facial hair, but it does not significantly alter established facial bone structure in adults. As a result, some FTM men may retain facial features they perceive as feminine.

Can you make a feminine face look more masculine?

Yes. Depending on individual facial anatomy and goals, surgical and non-surgical approaches can enhance features commonly associated with a more masculine facial appearance, such as the chin, jawline, cheeks, or forehead.

What is facial masculinization?

Facial masculinization refers to treatments designed to create or enhance facial characteristics typically perceived as masculine. This may involve altering the shape, projection, or proportions of areas such as the forehead, chin, jaw, and cheeks.
