In this clip, we discuss the critical importance of undergoing therapeutic intervention both before and after glottoplasty surgery. Based on observed outcomes and literature, relying solely on the surgery often leads to unsatisfactory results for most patients.

This clip discusses the effectiveness of pitch surgery for individuals seeking a gender-neutral voice and the importance of balancing resonance pre-surgery. The potential for post-surgery complications, such as hoarseness, is also highlighted, emphasising the need for thorough voice therapy both before and after the procedure.

In this video, we explore glottoplasty surgery, a procedure commonly performed to lift vocal pitch by shortening the vocal cords, sometimes using lasers.Key considerations such as potential hoarseness and the need for post-surgical voice rehabilitation are discussed. The aim is to provide a comprehensive understanding of how to achieve desired voice results through a well-rounded approach.

This clip discusses the benefits of voice therapy as compared to surgery for voice changes. It highlights how voice therapy provides lasting results and emotional support, which help individuals overcome self-doubts and fears.

This clip discusses the long-lasting benefits of going through a voice change process with therapeutic support. It highlights the natural self-consciousness people feel when changing their voice, comparing it to learning new activities like horse riding or exercising.

In this video, we explore the critical role of therapeutic support in achieving lasting voice change, especially in voice feminisation. The journey involves not just practical exercises but also addressing the emotional aspects of voice transition. While short clips and self-practice may offer limited success, guided support from a therapist can make a significant difference. Voice therapy, although not an instant fix, is quicker than other therapies and offers lifelong benefits by helping individuals navigate self-consciousness and emotional hurdles. This video also discusses the importance of therapy even when considering surgical options.

This clip explores the dynamic nature of the voice and the phenomenon of phonatory gaps. It discusses how suppressing the voice can inadvertently cause these gaps and the importance of actively using the voice for healthy vocal functioning. Additionally, it highlights how post-surgery intubation can lead to phonatory gaps due to the strain on vocal cords during extended operations.

In this clip, we delve into the diagnosis of a phonatory gap and its implications on vocal health. While it may sound serious, a phonatory gap is often curable with the right therapy. The video discusses that in cases of vocal cord paralysis, a combination of therapy and surgery might be necessary to restore the voice significantly. For non-paralysis related phonatory gaps, therapy can effectively improve the condition by helping the vocal cords close properly when they vibrate. The importance of using a strobe to visualize vocal cord vibrations and ensure proper contact is also highlighted.

In this clip, we explore how singers can develop phonatory gaps due to technique and overuse. The discussion includes strategies for improving vocal function, building stamina, and safely projecting the voice, emphasizing the importance of proper vocal cord alignment.

In this video clip, we explore various reasons behind phonatory gaps, including paralyzed or weak vocal cords, muscle tension dysphonia, and post-illness voice protection. Learn how these factors contribute to weaker voice sounds and voice fatigue, and discover common scenarios in which phonatory gaps occur after illnesses such as colds, flu, or laryngitis.
