Beginning in 1996, James underwent a series of facial feminization surgery procedures performed by Douglas Ousterhout, MD. James then posted before and after photographs on her then relatively new TS Roadmap web site and wrote an extensive web diary about her experience, which helped give notability to facial feminization surgery. The facial surgery modified her chin, jaw, nose, forehead, eye bones, and hairline. On January 9, 1998, in the chancery division of the first municipal district of the Cook County Circuit Court in Illinois, where she represented herself in case number 1998-CH-00269, she changed her name from James E. Mead to Andrea Jean James. Later that year, on June 16, 1998, in Portland, Oregon, James received vaginoplasty surgery from Toby Meltzer, MD.
