Cis-gender females undergo brow bone reduction much less frequently than men as it would be unusual for them to have a significant brow bone protrusion. These smaller protrusions do not usually require a bone flap setback technique as the amount of reduction needed can be done by bone burring alone. If the reduction needed is Read More…

The second is the transgender male to female patient who also has prominent brow bones due to their Read More…
