My FFS with Dr. Cardenas: June 21st, 2014

[crowcrow223]

Price of breast augmentation remained the same? That's not what the doctor told me... How can I contact you radialan?

Edit: I've just compared prices of BA between Lazaro Cardenas' website (the blue one), and transop, and the blue one said it's 2750 (which now after the increase comes about to 3100), but transop one says it's over 5000. But the blue one is shut down now as they're updating their prices

Hi, CrowCrow.  The cost to place breast implants is $2,750.  To arrive at the total price, you then have to add the cost of the implant material which ranges from $1,200 to $2,300 depending on the type of implants selected.  Please feel free to contact me via the TransOp site by clicking on the "contact us" pull down menu in the top, right-hand corner.

Hi Roni,

Congratulations, you look great! I had type 3 forehead reconstruction with Dr. Meltzer because I had a large frontal sinus with thin bone covering it , so he wasn't able to use burring.

Hi Roni,
Hope you're still doing well! I was just wondering how is healing continuing to go? Any complications? I'm still considering type III revision with Cardenas, just have to wait about another 4 months or so.

Hey shedevil,

I noticed in another thread you said you're more numb than you would like after your revisions, how are the results though? I'm wondering cause of your comment above... I remember u showed us some fairly swollen pics a while back, I'm sure you're looking much more settled and feminine now right? Hugs!

hey Calicarly, yes the numbnest around the chin and bottom lip area is still there, I'm now 49 days postop, and hopefully with time the numbnest will fade away.

As for the results, yes I am more feminine, but the swelling around tip of nose, neck, chin and jaw is still prominent. Also because they didnt have time to fix the upper lip after removal of the implant, the upper lip and above the upper lip looks gross.

As for the rest, there will be some minor revisions for the nose(not feminine I think), face lift not tight enough and filling the cheeks with fat transfer ( cheek implants I think should of been combined sub malar/malar implants instead of malar implants.

Going back in september to fix the upper and lower lips, and will discussed with surgeon about the other revisions to do probably a year post op

Hi shedevil; thank you for the compliment    I had surgery with Dr. Meltzer in 2007, so I'm not sure what he charges now, but I had type 3 forehead reconstruction which included a scalp advancement, and a rhinoplasty which allowed him to remove some bone where the bridge of the nose and the forehead meet.

Hi missymay, thats all he did, wow , well I'm guessing you probably look stunning already before the surgery, the things he did though, he did them extremely well,

Hey girl,

Healing is going well. Sensation isn't fully there yet but I'm not even a month post-op. The incision scar is fading fast and I'm not even using anything on it, though I probably should. My forehead is flat when you look from my left profile, but for some reason when looking from my right profile, it doesn't look as flat and looks more "slanted" than the other side, perhaps they didn't shave one side of my forehead enough. The average person really can't tell; only I can because I know my forehead.

My FFS results were a life changing miracle though. I now blend in as cis and everyone who meets me never knows. I've gone on dates and also fooled around with a lot of guys who all didn't know. Being treated as my true gender is so much easier after my FFS, that's for sure. I will have pics up here when I am one month post-op.
