BREAST AUGMENTATION
Creation of larger breast through saline or silicone implants.
TRACHEAL SHAVE
Reduction of Adams’s Apple.
VAGINOPLASTY
The intended results are a natural appearing vagina with normal sensation and adequate depth for sexual intercourse.
The Doctors perform a penile inversion technique. The testicles and the erectile tissue of the penis are removed. A vaginal space is created below the urethra (urinary tube). The clitoris is formed from the glans of the penis, keeping the nerves that supply it intact, thereby creating a sensate clitoris and labia. A small portion of scrotum is used to fashion the labia (the lips of the vagina). Cotton packing or bolsters are placed in the vagina at the end of the procedure. A cotton stent is placed in the vagina. The stent stays in place for five to six days.
LABIAPLASTY
The purpose of the labiaplasty is to create thinner inner labia, to provide some hooding to the clitoris, and to improve the overall aesthetic result. Additional, urethral revisions and other minor revisions to the vaginoplasty can be accomplished in this stage. Not all patients will find this necessary.

A secondary attempt to create more depth and/or width through skin grafts.
