Celebrating Pride At Austin-Weston Reston

Gender-Affirming Procedures In Northern Virginia

At Austin-Weston, The Center for Cosmetic Surgery, we believe that everyone deserves to feel confident, seen, and celebrated — during Pride Month and every day of the year.

We are proud to be a safe, inclusive space for transgender, nonbinary, and gender-diverse individuals seeking gender-affirming care. Whether you're taking your first step or exploring ways to align your appearance with your identity, our board-certified plastic surgeons and aesthetic experts are here to support you with compassion, expertise, and respect.

Let’s explore the surgical and non-surgical procedures we offer to help you feel like the most authentic version of yourself.

Surgical Gender-Affirming Procedures

Our skilled surgical team offers a range of gender-affirming procedures tailored to each patient's goals, anatomy, and transition journey. Every procedure is performed in our AAAHC-accredited operating suites right here in Reston, Virginia — so your experience remains private, safe, and affirming from start to finish.

Top Surgery (Chest Masculinization or Feminization)

Whether you're seeking a more masculine or feminine chest, top surgery can be one of the most transformative steps in aligning your appearance with your gender identity.

  • FTM Top Surgery: Removes breast tissue and sculpts a flat, masculine chest.

  • MTF Top Surgery: Enhances the chest with implants to create a fuller, more feminine shape.

Facial Feminization Surgery (FFS) & Facial Masculinization Surgery (FMS)

Facial procedures can soften or strengthen features to better reflect your gender identity:

  • Feminization may include: brow lift, eyelid surgery, rhinoplasty, jaw contouring, facial fat grafting, facelift, or neck lift.

  • Masculinization may include: jaw enhancement, chin implants, or facial bone contouring.

Tracheal Shaving (Adam’s Apple Reduction)

A tracheal shave reduces the prominence of the Adam’s apple for a smoother, more feminine neck contour.

Body Contouring for FTM & MTF Patients

We offer customized body contouring to help shape the waist, hips, and torso:

  • MTF patients may seek: fat transfer to the hips and buttocks, liposuction to define the waist.

  • FTM patients may seek: chest contouring, abdominal etching, or liposuction to masculinize the silhouette.

Please note: We do not perform bottom surgery (genital reconstruction).

Non-Surgical Gender-Affirming Treatments

For those not ready for surgery — or looking to enhance or maintain their results — we also offer non-invasive options that support gender expression and skin confidence.

Facial Fillers for Feminization or Masculinization

Injectable fillers can shape and define facial features in a powerful, yet subtle way:

  • Feminization with filler: soften the jawline, contour cheeks, plump the lips, and refine the chin for delicate balance.

  • Masculinization with filler: enhance the jawline, build a stronger chin, or create more angular cheekbones.

Our expert injectors work closely with patients to achieve natural, gender-affirming results tailored to their identity.

Laser Hair Removal

Target and reduce unwanted facial or body hair for smoother skin and lasting confidence — especially affirming for trans women and nonbinary patients undergoing feminization.

miraDry® for Sweat & Odor Control

This FDA-approved treatment reduces underarm sweat and odor permanently. It’s a great option for anyone looking to feel more confident in their skin, especially during transition or hormone therapy.

Medical-Grade Skincare

Healthy, glowing skin is for everyone. We offer professional skincare treatments and products to help you feel like the best version of yourself — no filters required.

You Deserve to Feel Seen, Respected, and Celebrated
