Andrea

A long time ago I was considering completing my physical transformation with a significant change in my face, I needed a facial makeover. There are opportunities in life that should be taken advantage of and for me, facial feminization was one of them. After looking for several sites, I was recommended to Dr. Antonio Vazquez from Teknon Medical Center in Barcelona, who advised me and explained the whole process so I could make a decision. I decided to operate and today I smile more than ever, I feel happy and that is the most important thing to achieve all my wishes. The results were higher than my expectations. Not only did they change my face, they improved my image and my interior giving more strength and more security to the woman I am and I will be all my life. I feel happy!!!!!! Thanks from my heart

I am a very indecisive person and I have a hard time making vital decisions. Facial feminization surgery is the most important decision I have made in my life, not only because of everything that involves such an operation but because it marks a before and after in life. After 2 years looking for information, doctors, and experiences of people as they had done it, I contacted the AVR Maxillofacial Clinic in Barcelona. The first visit was like a cloud of hope, they solved all my doubts and concerns about the operation and the post operative and I felt totally accompanied. I am so satisfied and so happy with my new face that I only have words of thanks for all of Dr. Vazquez’s team. It was a positive experience that I recommend if you want to enjoy a more feminine face. All my friends tell me that I’m beautiful.
