Quentin Qassemyar¶
Location: Paris, France
Procedures: FFS
Volume: 80–100 FFS procedures per year
Overview¶
Dr. Quentin Qassemyar is a highly credentialed FFS specialist based in Paris. He holds an MD, PhD, and HDR (the highest French academic research qualification) from Sorbonne/Paris-Saclay universities. He has published over 100 research papers including landmark FFS studies, and performs 80–100 facial feminization surgeries per year.
He transitioned from a senior academic hospital role at Hôpital Tenon (AP-HP, Sorbonne Université) to private practice ("French Facial Surgery") in late 2022. He operates under Sector 2 pricing and accepts ALD (French national health coverage for gender dysphoria), meaning some costs may be partially covered by Sécurité Sociale.
Procedures Performed¶
- Frontoplasty (forehead feminization / brow bone reduction) — including his signature Naso-Orbito-Frontal (NOF) complex reshaping
- Gonioplasty (jaw reduction) — 5,500 EUR reported by a patient (2024)
- Genioplasty (chin reshaping) — published the "F-Chin" technique for feminizing chin with virtual planning
- Rhinoplasty (nose feminization)
- Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery)
- V-line surgery (jaw/chin contouring)
He uses 3D custom-made surgical cutting guides for forehead, jaw, and chin procedures — a technique he has published safety/accuracy data on.

Patient Reviews¶
Patient feedback is generally positive with some caveats:
- BDDTrans (hospital) — 29 comments. One visible review: "good aesthetic results though somewhat doll-like appearance, less natural than Dr. Ruiz in Créteil"
- BDDTrans (private practice) — 7 comments on his post-2022 private practice
- The "doll-like vs natural" distinction may reflect a more aggressive approach on bony structures — some patients prefer this, others do not
- TikTok patient testimonials generally positive: "Beyond blessed and grateful for what France and Dr Qassemyar gave me"
Regional Comparison¶
- Dr. Ruiz (Créteil) — mentioned as producing more "natural" results
- Dr. Sarra Cristofari (TransParis team, Hôpital Tenon) — multidisciplinary hospital team for FFS
- Dr. Gérald Franchi (Paris) — another prominent FFS surgeon in Paris
- Facialteam (Marbella, Spain) — major European FFS destination, team-based approach, generally more expensive
- Dr. Deschamps-Braly (San Francisco) — similar technology-forward approach, significantly more expensive
