Hello girls,
I'm Vanessa, I'm 36 years old. Since the beginning of my transition, in 2013, I've always followed this forum, I followed Jenny's topic, I read this whole topic, but it's the first time I post.
I had my surgery at Yeson on June 1, 20 days ago.
Dr. Kim told me that he also corrected an asymmetry and that some parameters were abnormal, such as the pressure and the amount of air I use to speak.
In the first week, I coughed a couple of times but I think it was normal, I tried not to make sounds. But I think I made a mistake: visiting a palace, while I took photos, I ran into a person and automatically said "I'm sorry" but without voicing, just coming out of the air. I hope it does not worsen the result.
On June 6, late afternoon, I went to Yeson for the follow-up and botox injection, Dr. Kim did an endoscopy and said that everything was fine (he always said that everything was fine, both good and bad results
).
Here is the photo I received in the follow-up. On top the "before". Below, on the left the day of surgery, on the right the day of the follow-up:
I did not ask how much he sutured, looks a little more than 1/3, but less than 1/2.
I returned to Brazil and since then I used my emergency words only once on June 18th. I was sleeping, the friend who lives with me came into my room to look for something and, unintentionally, I spoke three words to her. No pitch increase. (okay, I read on the topics that no changes in the first month is normal even in the best results).
I'm trying to be patient to spend the next 9 days without talking. I worry that in the last 3 days I have sneezed a few times (it had not happened before), and it is difficult for me not to emit sound in these cases, a little bit always leaves.
Well, that's it for now. I do not know yet how my result will be but, being good or not, I think I should share here, since those who shared before helped me to make my decision.
And sorry about my English, this isn't my first language
