Facial surgeries for gender transition may include having the hairline moved to create a smaller forehead, having the lips and cheekbones augmented, having the eyelids modified (blepharoplasty), having the nose reshaped (rhinoplasty), or having the jaw and chin reshaped and resized (mandibular angle reduction and genioplasty).
