Wondering between suporn and brassard for srs

[Jenna Marie]

Where the skin goes matters less than where the nerves go, and Brassard separates skin from nerves and tries to preserve as many nerves undamaged and uncut as possible. (I don't know about Suporn.) There's still nerves which have to reconnect, but I honestly don't know which ones...

I definitely have more sensitivity inside my vagina than cis women supposedly do - they don't have any nerve endings there, and I clearly do.

I m still unsure wich surgeon to choose
brassard i like because he feels safe , but i m not sure i like the suposed appearance of the vulva
I think i would prefer a vulva with bit longer lips , but i m not sure about the erectile tissues he leaves

i m kinda having difficultys choosing , and ever since i v been on antipsychotics its like i got cognitive difficultys at making decisions .

I'm less than three months post op with Dr. Brassard.  I've never measured my depth but it's a good 6" or so.  Sensitivity returned relatively quickly and I just had my first orgasm last week, at 61 days post op.  A few days later the multiple orgasms were quite intense so I am very happy so far.

I've no personal experience, but I've spent a lot of time researching Dr Suporn. I've not spent much time researching Dr Brassard recently, so I can't say very much about him.

I won't post any links since I'm not sure about the sites terms of service, but there's plenty to find about Dr Suporn using google. There's a number of really long and detailed blog posts, some relatively recent photo's of results, and endless discussions by people visiting him and post-ops. The photo's were pretty impressive, but I couldn't find much to compare for Dr Brassard so I've no idea about the difference.

I believe the story about the remaining testis is related to a pre-existing medial condition, and not something that would apply to anyone else. Also I don't think its possible that any surgeon could somehow miss them in any normal normal case.

Dr Suporn's surgery takes much longer than Dr Brassards, and I believe this is a result of the complexity of what he does. Whether its worth the extra effort I don't know, but you'd hope so since it also results in a much more difficult and longer recovery - double by all accounts.

Dr Suporn requires patients to stay for about 30 days, during which time he does revisions as necessary, and the level of care is apparently excellent. Dr Brassard's stay is I believe about 10 days. Even accounting for the more invasive surgery I find that very reassuring with Dr Suporn, since there's a chance to get everything sorted out before flying home. The last thing I'd want is to fly home and have problems. If money is not an issue then flying business class would no doubt make getting home a lot easier. The extra recovery time with Suporn might be a problem if you have to get back to work soon, especially if you do heavy physical work.

I've seen one or two pictures of Suporn results that looked kind of odd, and possibly related to the excess erectile tissue issue. I think it's a result of swelling that takes a really long time to go down, but once it does it looks normal. I'd guess the swelling is related to the complexity of what he does.

I'm not really sure what to make of a lot of what I read, since almost every seems to be happy with their results no matter who they see. There also seems to be stories of unfortunate results from all surgeons, although some a lot more that others. Suporn definitely has one on this site.

They are both obviously among the very top SRS surgeons in the world. I often find that when a choice is difficult its because there's not much difference, and then it doesn't matter much which choice you make.

I came across some more info about Dr Suporn and erectile tissue, and I think what I wrote before was incorrect. Assuming what I read is correct, then it's unrelated to the swelling issue and some amount of erectile tissue is necessary for any SRS surgery, or bad things will happen. I forgot the details, but I think it included incontinence.

The problem is when there's to much left, which can happen if the surgeon is too cautious and misjudges it. Its also risky to revise it. I've no idea if Dr Suporn has a higher rate of this than anyone else.

I am a Brassard girl so it may sound bias but it's not. As long as you get 5 inches of depth you are good. I know girls are always worried about depth but a man doesn't need to go "balls deep" and put all his junk in you to feel pleasure. Aesthetic wise Brassard is the best, depth wise I won't like I believe Supporn is better. But what good is depth if your aesthetics aren't good? Don't worry about depth as much. I know girls like men who are big but they don't need to insert all of it in there to cum, trust me.

I am somewhat baffled by a lot of this, as it's just not true of my personal anatomy. My clit is correctly positioned and very small (and very sensitive) and hooded, the urethral mucosa used in the clitoral hood and the inside of the labia minora is pale pink and lightly moist exactly as I've seen in many photos of cis women, and I absolutely do self-lubricate. Additionally, I've had a gynecologist who assumed I was a cis woman who'd had a hysterectomy after the internal exam. Maybe I'm exceptionally lucky, but not from what I've heard over the years of talking to other Brassard patients...

I'm not an expert on Suporn or Chet, but Brassard's technique - while "enhanced" penile inversion - does not match what you're saying here.

I'm also sorry that you had a poor experience with Chet, and it sounds like your regrets are deserved; that's terrible.

Mona : Hey, fair enough. Brassard's web site is terrible. I also did not know he used to do that with the mucosal tissue in the vaginal lining - no, that's not how he does things anymore. (Maybe that was Menard's idea and he gave it up when he took over? I dunno.) He now puts mucosal tissue where cis women have it, which is fine by me.

I'm sure he also tells women that he can't guarantee they will be able to lubricate, but I know other Brassard women who can. It's the luck of the draw, I guess, and admittedly he doesn't relocate the glands (lubrication is clearly dripping from the urethra, but it's still sufficient and effective, and cis women lubricate at least *partially* from the urethra as well).

Regardless, I don't blame you at all for being upset with your results. Even if the doctor was just having an off day, you're entitled to be distressed that you were the victim of it.

I went to Brassard and am able to lubricate when excited although most of the lubricant seems to form in the top area of my vulva.  I was able to orgasm at day 61 post op and am happy with 5.5" depth, although I am still very tight and have to dilate before sex with my boyfriend at this point (3.5 months post op).
