Voice Feminization Surgery (MTF) is a specialized surgical procedure designed for transgender women who wish to achieve a higher, softer, and more feminine voice. Beyond pitch elevation, it focuses on resonance, intonation, and vocal quality, helping patients communicate in a way that aligns with their gender identity.
At Yoskarn Clinic in Bangkok, Thailand, Dr. Somyot Kunjak and his medical team, with over 40 years of experience in ENT and phonosurgery, provide advanced surgical and therapeutic solutions tailored for each patient’s vocal anatomy and personal goals.
Voice feminization surgery addresses structural aspects of the vocal folds and larynx that determine pitch and resonance. Techniques commonly used include:
Cricothyroid Approximation (CTA) – Tightens and stretches the vocal folds, raising pitch.
Anterior Commissure Advancement (ACA) – Shortens the vibrating length of the vocal folds for smoother, feminine tone.
Laser & Endoscopic Adjustments – Fine-tunes tissue with minimally invasive methods to enhance vocal clarity.
Combined with postoperative voice therapy, these procedures allow patients to achieve natural, sustainable, and expressive feminine voices.

Advanced diagnostics, including stroboscopy and acoustic analysis, allow precise surgical planning.
Surgery
CTA, ACA, or laser/endoscopic adjustments are performed under controlled anesthesia, ensuring accuracy and minimal tissue trauma.
Postoperative Care
Voice rest is recommended, followed by targeted speech therapy to train resonance, intonation, and natural speech patterns. Patients typically notice pitch changes immediately, with final results stabilizing in a few weeks.
