Late SRS revisions possible in Thailand?

[anjaq]

Hi.

Its been 15 years since my GRS and I am considering doing a revision surgery. The reason is that 15 years ago, plastic surgery was not that good, so my vulva has markers of something being odd. Things like a clitoris that is not shaped right, missing inner labia and missing clitoral hood lead to me being insecure, avoiding sex. I was single for 10 years now and last week when I was having a holiday romance , I was asked what is up with my clitoris, its "not normal" and if I had surgery there. I denied it and it worked, but this was a close call and I dont know if it will work next time again.

So does anyone know of plastic surgeons in Thailand who will do revisions that are not damaging my nerves but can give a more realistic look to my vulva? I know Dr Suporn does not do this anymore for patients not having had GRS with him originally. I also asked a few GRS surgeons locally, but they are all unwilling or unable to do this...

Thank you

this was an example from europe...

Just do your due diligence and have a further look at their reputations...

Thanks, its a start. Maybe someone can comment who had a correction surgery done in one of these places?
I just heard of four names in Thailand.

One was Dr Preecha, I believe, the other was Suporn who does not do this and then there was Chettawut and one Dr Sangon (?). Two of them are doing PI for vaginoplasty (Preecha and Sangon), which is what I had, so they may be more suited then suporn and Chettawut who does a similar method, I believe.

so does anyone have experience with one of these two?

The name is Sanguan Kunaporn.
The first link above has more information, also their pricing concerning post grs labiaplasty.

If you have found a surgeon you might do a more in depth analysis... like what weak points are, for example accomodation...

Did you asked Dr. Schaff? I see him on Monday.

[anjaq]

Yes. I asked Dr Schaff and Dr Taskov here in my area and both refused to do any surgery. Dr Schaff told me to "deal with it" and referred me to a psychologist to come to terms with how things are.

I mean - its not bad as it is. Considering it was done 15 years ago it probably is actually pretty good. But it still has some features that are not quite right. Dr Schaff listed all of them, even the ones I did not notice before, to me and then told me that it is how it is and that he would have done it better but I should rather find a way to live with how it is than to look for more surgery. I am not sure - maybe he is right - it means however to either have to tell someone who gets intimate before anything happens - or to live with some considerable fear of that guy noticing something odd.

[Laura_7]

There might be better means in the future.

On the other hand if you feel it might make you happy you might make a few photos and contact a few surgeons, ask for their opinions and a quote. And then think about it.


*hugs*

[anjaq]

That was my intention - but I wanted to see if someone has experience with these people so i dont waste time to ask them, get a quote and then find out they are not working good.

The future is always now - I dont want to get things changed when I am 60 - I am in my early 40ies now and have no desire to wait forever.

If Dr. Schaff thinks that it would be better to luve with it I would really consider this option. He does a lot of revisions and his genuine work is fantadtic.

If you contacz enough surgeons it is sure that many want to earn money and will do this revision surgery just to earn money.

There are two sides to it.

One is it might not be absolutely necessary from a technical point of view.

Have you ever bought an article knowing in secret you would have preferred another ?
Like buying a blue car... but you would have really liked a green one ?
This is an emotional point of view. If it does not make happy or there is a feeling something is off then listening to the emotion might be a god idea.

[anjaq]

I respect Dr Schaffs work, but his bedside manners were bottomless on that day - if he cannot change it, he could have spared me to list all the things he believes are "wrong" about my vulva. It was like rubbing it in that he would have done a better job, but there was no point to it because the surgery was 15 years ago.

He said he could do a revision actually, but it would still not be looking good and it would be risky for the nerves. Basically he would have wanted to place the clitoris differently. I am not sure this would be the best result - the clitoris would still look odd , just in a different place.

But yes - I fear a bit that some surgeons may say they can do something but not inform well enough about the risks - possibly because they are looking at the money...

[Laura_7]

Well in my opinion all you have is your feeling.

You might talk to the surgeons via skype. Or chat, sometimes emotions are also conveyed that way.

And you might ask questions... like how the clit would look afterwards, what about nerves etc...
and how much experience they have.

I had a revision with Chett 5 days ago, Part of my issue with my Vagina is that during the original surgery he ran out of skin to make a full clitoral hood. I asked if he could fix this now and was told no cannot cut. He reasons that I would lose sensation.

I love Chett and his work, I still believe he does miracles so if you'd like more info please pm me. I don't want to fill your thread with what would sound like a commercial for Chett

I hope you get some satisfaction from somewhere

That does not sound promising because the clitoral hood plus the labia minora (and their connection to the clitoris) are the main issues I have...

[SorchaC]

I have found Dr Chett to be rather cautious when it comes to complications, There are a few cases reported on here where he has only achieved small depth due to adhesions, I am not saying anything negative against him as I believe caution is a sensible route to take just that if you want someone to push the boundaries of what is possible maybe Chett isn't the right surgeon for you. However having said this you could just straight up ask him to do it a certain way and see what he replies with.

Well a labiaplasty is not uncommon...
and do they have to cut for enlarging of the hood ?

[anjaq]

Yes i guess i should just send Photos to these surgeons and see what they say. Of course, I don't really want to take big risks for this, so I guess I may have to consider dealing with it in another way. Most likely this means either preparing a good cover story or becoming openly trans, at least when it comes to dating, which probably means the information will spread in other areas of my life as well. But losing feeling or the ability to orgasm would defy the purpose of such a surgery

You might simply ask around.
There might be different techniques.
You simply might ask about the risk of each one.

I will try that. I was hoping to get an opinion here of people who had revision surgeries done by them

Well in 2010 I had a very successful update to early 1980's vintage surgery, which involved effectively creating a clitoris and hood out of thin air! God alone knows how he managed that trick! It's not perfect but its pretty good.

However I regret to say that this minor miracle was performed by a UK surgeon namely Mr James Bellringer FRCS.

So as a general point only, it is possible - and yes I am orgasmic - and yes it is sensate.
