In Toronto, facial feminization surgery describes cosmetic surgery procedures that change the face and neck to become more feminine. There’s no set, standard way to achieve this, so each person’s treatment plan will be customized for their unique needs and goals.
Dr. Phillip Solomon is a double board certified Facial Cosmetic Surgeon-Otolaryngologist Head and Neck Surgeon Practicing Facial Plastic Surgery. He’s renowned for his facial surgery results, including those designed for facial feminization. The following are a few of the typical procedures that can be included in this suite of surgeries to transform one’s appearance.
This procedure moves the hairline forward and is commonly requested to complete a feminine look because men tend to have more receded hairlines due to genetics. For those with a receding hairline that wish to appear younger or more feminine, scalp or hairline advancement can help. It involves a temple-to-temple incision which is carefully closed with minimal tension to allow a thin, faint scar. This scar can often be disguised with hair transplants post-procedure if desired.
This popular cosmetic surgery is not only useful to shave years off one’s appearance but can also help feminize the face. Lifted eyebrows and smooth forehead contribute to a softer appearance.
A prominent forehead bone can lend a masculine quality to a person’s face. Either with or without a brow lift, the bone can be shaved and contoured for facial feminization.
The orbital ridges- bones around the eyes- can be reshaped or shaved down to soften a person’s appearance and make the eye area more feminine.
Eyelid surgery is a popular choice for anti-aging effects and for feminization too.
Excess skin in the upper or lower lid areas can be removed along with protruding fat pads that create bags. Very fine incisions within the natural folds and creases will be nearly impossible to detect, yet the result of blepharoplasty has a significant positive impact on one’s appearance.
Whether with fat grafting, dermal fillers or implants, the midface area can be rounded and built up to sculpt cheekbones and make the apples of the cheeks more feminine. That decreases midface height which tends to be longer for men and allows for more sculpted face shape.
Noses are central to our faces and can have a dramatic effect on the overall harmony of features. Men’s noses are naturally angled downward more often than women’s, and larger in many cases. Rhinoplasty can change the size and shape of one’s nose, refine the tip and create a more feminine profile.
Along with nose surgery, lifting the upper lip helps to balance features in cases where the nose has been made smaller.
A longer, squared jawline can be feminized through reduction and reshaping of the chin. Sometimes chin implants are also used to alter the projection and create a softer look.
If a prominent Adam’s Apple (cartilage) isn’t desired, this feature can be removed to create a more feminine neck.

Kathy Ellis2024-12-16 I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Solomon, and couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. From the first consultation, Dr. Solomon’s expertise and professionalism put me at ease. He guided me every step of the way, ensuring that I understood the process and felt comfortable. The outcome exceeded my expectations, as I now look like a fresher, younger version of myself. Dr. Solomon’s attention to detail and skill truly enhanced my natural beauty. I feel more confident and rejuvenated than ever. I must also recognize two of his amazing staff, Nurse Maddie and Nurse Nancy who were kind, attentive, responsive and always available when I reached out to them. Thank you Dr. Solomon, for giving me a renewed sense of self! Vanessa Gray2024-12-06 I am exactly one week out from my deep plane facelift surgery. I am healing so quickly and the results are already so amazing. Dr. Philip Solomon is not only a skilled surgeon but an artist. I travelled all the way from Vancouver and have no regrets. Thank you Dr. Solomon, Nancie, and the rest of your team! L J2024-12-06 Dr Solomon and his team have been exceptional. Ive always felt self conscious about the droopiness of my nose tip, but from the first consultation, Dr Solomon put me at ease with his excellent bedside manner and willingness to answer all my questions. After surgery, a nurse called me to check in, and my recovery process has been quite smooth. Now at 8 weeks post op I feel a newfound confidence every time I look in the mirror. Nancy has also been incredibly supportive, patiently answering questions and providing reassurance as I continue to navigate some post-op swelling (which is expected). Incredible experience and I’m so grateful to the entire team! Jen Muller2024-12-05 I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Solomon. A few years ago, I had rhinoseptoplasty for a deviated septum and a nostril that seemed to be collapsing. Since the surgery, I have been able to breathe much better. I then developed a cyst deep under the layers of my skin beside my nose. It took three years of meeting with various experts to try to figure out what was going on and how to remove it without scarring. Apparently this type of cyst is very rare. It took a long time, waiting for ultrasounds and CT scans. Dr. Solomon helped me through this entire process and was able to remove it from the inside of my nose without scarring. I cannot express enough of my appreciation for the removal of the cyst. It was causing a lot of issues for me with swelling that was unpredictable and distressing. It is a big decision to consider surgery and it’s important to research who you choose to work with, I would feel confident in your choice if you choose to work with Dr. Solomon. Susan Khamassi2024-12-03 I had rhinoplasty with Dr. Solomon. I was very nervous for years to do it because I wanted to still look natural. During my consult he listened to everything I wanted and now after 5 months post surgery I am beyond happy with the results. He is very skilled and would recommend him 1000 percent ! Thank you again ! R Karabassis2024-12-02 Dr. Solomon is great! Makes you feel comfortable and is also good with his aftercare and post procedure check ups. Results are amazing! Irene Karabassis2024-12-02 Dr. Solomon is amazing! He makes you feel comfortable and always addresses any of your concerns. Results are beautiful and natural! Anna Kayden2024-12-02 I’ve had two surgeries with Dr. Solomon and couldn’t be happier with the results. He’s an incredibly skilled and knowledgeable surgeon whose judgment I trust completely. Dr. Solomon provides honest, realistic feedback and never overpromises the degree of results, which I deeply appreciate. His clinical team is outstanding—they create a safe, welcoming environment every step of the way. I wouldn’t hesitate to return for future procedures if needed. Devina Dasilva2024-10-29 It was a blessing in disguise that your receptionists treated me so poorly which led me to go elsewhere. I Thank the Lord each day for not having Dr. Solomon touch my nose and perform surgery. My nose is in the utmost pristine condition and it's only because of the Lord. What a huge blessing to find an amazing surgeon elsewhere. A big Thank You to all the receptionists who were absolutely rude towards me. Had it not been for your ridiculous behaviour - I might have walked out with a botched nose job. Tina S2024-10-25 Dr. Solomon did a top notch job on my revision rhinoplasty. I am truly amazed at the results - they are even better than what I had hoped for. Even with the issues with my nose, he fixed the issues completely and made adjustments as-needed for a stunning result. And did it all "closed". Quite incredible. I'm still amazed. Prior to surgery (consultation phase), Dr. Solomon answered my many, many questions without hesitation - bc of my experience with a previous surgeon, I was quite nervous and asked many questions. He was very patient with me. The entire team was exceedingly professional - even his operative support team. 5 stars for them too. As a side note, I researched Toronto plastic surgeons for months before landing on Dr. Solomon. I've also since learned that he has an excellent reputation not just among patients, but within the medical community. I recommend Dr. Solomon wholeheartedly.
