Is it possible to see a regular craniofacial surgeon to perform type 3 forehead work or is that out of the question?

I think that the type 3 forehead surgery was invented by Dr. Douglas Ousterhout specifically for trans women, so I don't know if all craniofacial surgeons have been trained to do this specialized procedure, but if they have then yes, for sure they could do it, however the results may not be as good as the surgeons that routinely do the procedure and have a few hundred or so successful outcomes.
