Hello all,
I'm planning to have a facial scar revision soon but idk if taking T gonna do any harm to the healing process? I havent got much change so  stopping T now would extend my transformation much longer Does anybody have knowledge of this?

I don't think that it's an issue if you're taking T during surgery unless you have some other medical condition which could mean that the T would possibly affect things like bleeding.

Like chipper, my surgeon didn't even mention stopping T when I had top surgery.  Some surgeons do, however. 

But I don't really understand why a trans* guy would be asked to stop T when a cismale isn't castrated or asked to take T blockers when having the same surgery. *shrug*
