What the fuck is voice feminization surgery? That sounds scary af. Do they literally have to cut into your throat?
I think they go through your mouth, no cutting. I think they just have to like do something to shorten the length of your vocal cords because the shorter they are the higher pitch they’ll create.
Your vocal chords are altered to sound feminine
I mean yes but isn’t that deep in your throat?
the back part sort of is, but you can feel the area where the vocal chords are, it’s the hard bit roughly where your chin meets the neck
That sounds awesome!
It’s a surgery that raises your pitch. There are multiple methods for this. Mine was something called Vocal Fold Shortening and Retrodisplacement of the Anterior Commissure. Basically they do this: The unique concept of Yeson‘s VFSRAC surgery is that the most advanced surgical technique is used which perfectly modifies the features of male vocal folds into those of female vocal folds. This is achieved without the necessity of a skin incision by endoscopically removing 1/3 of the vocal fold membrane and internal tissue, and then suturing the new structures tight with permanent suture material using some of the world‘s finest micro endoskopic instruments.
Thank you for the explanation. It sounds a lot less frightening after.
