Transforming Faces, Affirming Identity: Inside the World of Facial Feminization Surgery with Dr. Harrison Lee

When it comes to facial feminization surgery, few surgeons in the world bring the depth of training, precision, and expertise that Dr. Harrison Lee does to the operating room. A triple board-certified facial plastic surgeon with practices in Beverly Hills and New York City, Dr. Lee has spent nearly three decades at the intersection of surgical science and aesthetic medicine. Nowhere is that more evident than in his work in Facial Feminization Surgery (or FFS).

A Foundation Built on Bone

What separates a skilled FFS surgeon from others in the field is not just technique. Dr. Lee's educational background gave him exactly the foundational knowledge of the facial skeleton needed for this specialization. After graduating from Tufts Dental School in an accelerated three-year program, he completed a four-year residency in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, taught at NYU as a clinical assistant professor, and then returned to school to earn his MD. Continuing on, he spent five years completing a Head and Neck Surgery residency at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City and a Facial Plastic Surgery Fellowship under world-renowned surgeon Dr. Frank Kamer in Beverly Hills. This extensive path to expertise produced a surgeon with a comprehensive understanding of the face, from the underlying bone structure to the overlying soft tissue. A combination quintessential in FFS.
