Because male and female hairline shapes are different, hair transplants are often needed to complete the Facial Feminization Surgery in transgender patients. Putting together a qualified team of doctors, surgeons and other professionals that have experience in Facial Feminization, and especially a board-certified hair restoration surgeon who understands the nuances of female hairline design, is a critical step for the transgender patient. When Caitlyn Jenner went public with her transformation, she likely became the most famous transgender person in the world. Having helped many patients from Miami, South Florida and beyond here at Bauman Medical in Boca Raton who were seeking a more feminine hairline, it is a pleasure to work together with a plastic surgeon such as Jupiter head and neck surgeon Dr. Vartan Mardirossian who specializes in helping transgender patients make their transformation in their bodies and faces through Facial Feminization Surgery. This article by Steve Dorfman in the Palm Beach Post details the multifaceted medical approach and professional medical team needed to address the transgender patient's needs. --Dr. Alan J.
