That is why we offer the best voice feminization surgery options in Turkey to raise the pitch of your voice, making it sound more feminine by changing the length, tightness, or size of your vocal cords with maximum precision and safety.

Before you google “Voice feminization surgery near me” or contact your insurance provider to ask about voice feminization surgery in Turkey, you need to know how it is done, and why you need Tour for Cure extra-specially trained surgeons to do it.
The process of voice feminization starts with an initial evaluation, in which our team listens to you and understands your wishes about the voice with which you wish to talk to the world. After asking about your medical history, medications, and everything related to your health, the team will take measurements of your vocal capabilities, deficits, and strengths. A small scope will be placed in your mouth or through your nose to view your voice box and evaluate your vocal cords in vibration. By the end of the evaluation, we will tailor a voice change surgery plan special to your needs and wishes, comprising several components, such as voice feminization therapy, one of the vocal cord surgeries, and/or a modification of your Adam’s apple.
But, is voice feminization surgery in Turkey worth it?
The benefits voice feminization surgery offers range from alleviating the voice-deepening effects of androgen (the male sex hormone), whether it was received as therapy for certain disorders or produced by an androgen-secreting ovarian tumor; to affirming the physical characteristics of transgender women (male transitioning to female, or MTF) and individuals who have a disorder of sex differentiation (born with both sex organs), as hormone therapy alone is not enough to shorten the vocal cords. Doing voice feminization surgery in Turkey absolutely increases the quality of life of many individuals each year, and it certainly will help you match your voice to your gender identity.
Voice Feminization in Turkey will make you more comfortable and make the world listen.
Types of Voice Feminization Surgery in Turkey
The commonest voice feminization surgery in Turkey is known as the Anterior Glottal Web Formation or the Wendler Glottoplasty. Tour for Cure Surgeons with decades of experience use this operation to shorten the length of your vocal cords, to eliminate the lowest parts of your vocal pitch range. This involves connecting the anterior third of your vocal cords with sutures to shorten them and match their length to that required for a female pitch. This procedure leaves no neck scar as it is done entirely through the mouth while you are asleep under general anesthesia for about 30 to 40 minutes. Post-surgical pain is not expected following the procedure and you will be dispatched within the same day.
Other procedures aim to achieve similar results by increasing the tightness of your vocal cords, such as the Cricothyroid Approximation (CTA); or by decreasing the mass (or size) of your vocal cords, such as the Laser Reduction Glottoplasty (LRG).
Transgender Voice Affirmation (Male transitioning to Female - MTF)
If you are doing the voice feminization surgery in Turkey for gender affirmation, you might wonder if voice feminization surgery or voice feminization therapy is the best option for you.

Tour for Cure voice therapists in Turkey will help you make subtle changes to your voice’s resonance and breathiness; and to your speech’s speed, fluidity, inflection, and sentence stresses.
Prior to your voice feminization surgery, Tour for Cure specially-trained professionals help you maximize using your vocal behavior to communicate your gender identity by teaching you the communication patterns that signal a feminine speaker. After the surgery, depending on your healing and recovery, we will start you on some gentle exercises to help the gradual reintroduction of your new vocal apparatus.
Tour for Cure Head and Neck Surgeons can also perform voice box modification to alter the appearance of the Adam’s apple, also known as the Tracheal Shave operation. This is done by carefully removing a small part on the outside of your thyroid cartilage called the laryngeal or thyroid prominence. This is achieved via a small incision in a natural crease in your neck, and is minimally visible after healing.
