Voice Masculinization Surgery (FTM) is a specialized procedure designed for transgender men seeking a lower, stronger, and more masculine voice. The surgery focuses on pitch lowering, vocal fold tension adjustments, and resonance optimization to help patients align their voice with their gender identity.
At Yoskarn Clinic in Bangkok, Thailand, Dr. Somyot Kunjak and his medical team, with over 40 years of ENT and phonosurgery experience, provide advanced, evidence-based solutions tailored to each patient’s vocal anatomy and goals.
Voice masculinization surgery addresses the structural aspects of the vocal folds and larynx that determine pitch and vocal timbre. Techniques include:
Type III Thyroplasty (Pitch Lowering Surgery): Shortens and relaxes the vocal folds to lower pitch naturally.
Endoscopic or Laser-Assisted Adjustments: Refine tissue to improve resonance, vocal strength, and clarity.
Voice Therapy Integration: Optimizes outcomes by training resonance, intonation, and speech patterns after surgery.
These procedures are designed to provide permanent, safe, and natural-sounding results.
