Dr. C. Carson Huynh

Facial Masculinization Specialist in Atlanta, Georgia

Dr. C. Carson Huynh, MD, DMD, FACS, is a dual board-certified maxillofacial and facial plastic surgeon with more than 15 years of surgical experience. Based in Atlanta, Georgia, Dr. Huynh is recognized for his expertise in gender-affirming facial surgery, with specialized skill in bone-contouring procedures essential to Facial Masculinization Surgery (FMS).

With advanced training in both medicine and dentistry, Dr. Huynh brings a unique perspective to facial structure and aesthetics. His precision in reshaping the jawline, chin, brow, and forehead allows transgender men, nonbinary patients, and cisgender men to achieve a strong, balanced, and traditionally masculine appearance. Patients frequently travel from across the Southeast and beyond for his surgical expertise and discreet, patient-centered care.

Education and Training

Dr. Huynh completed his Doctor of Medicine at Emory University School of Medicine and his Doctor of Dental Medicine at Augusta University. He trained in general surgery and oral & maxillofacial surgery at Emory University and went on to complete a fellowship in facial aesthetic plastic surgery at The Ohio State University.

This combined background in maxillofacial and plastic surgery makes him especially well-suited for FMS, where skeletal modification and precision contouring are critical.

Masculinizing Surgery Procedures

Dr. Huynh offers a range of procedures designed to create strong, defined, and masculine features:

  • Jaw & Chin Augmentation – Square jawline and prominent chin using custom implants or bone grafting
  • Forehead & Brow Ridge Augmentation – Enhances brow prominence for a distinctly masculine profile
  • Masculinizing Rhinoplasty – Refines nasal shape and projection to harmonize with masculine facial proportions
  • Cheek & Midface Contouring – Fat transfer, implants, or buccal fat removal to reduce roundness
  • Soft Tissue Masculinization – Lip, eyelid, and hairline adjustments tailored to individual goals

Virtual Surgical Planning

Dr. Huynh utilizes 3D imaging and surgical simulation to plan bone contouring procedures with precision. Custom implants and guides are created to match each patient’s anatomy, improving accuracy, safety, and outcomes.

Recovery and Postoperative Care

  • Most patients require 7–10 days of initial downtime
  • Swelling and bruising improve significantly within 2–6 weeks
  • Full results continue to refine over several months
