Sumario:A transgender individual is someone who does not identify with his or her biological sex(1). During the transgender transition process, minimally invasive procedures (MIP) provide a versatile tool in the clinician’s therapeutic armamentarium, since the changes can be impactful for the patient, yet reversible, especially for the patient who is unsure about proceeding with a definite surgery. We report 5 cases of facial feminization of transgender women, illustrating the use of minimally invasive facial remodeling procedures for male-to-female transitioning patients.
