A few members have asked me to review my experience using PAI for my surgeries and why I chose them.
It was a hard decision and I visited Dr Suporn twice and Dr Chettawut, I had my own issues with both of them. With Suporn it was his poor location at Chanbury, his dismal class 3 hospital and his service apartment was not up to my standards. But most if all it took him 6 to 7 hours for the srs and he could not manage to do my ffs under one GA. Being under GA for that time bothered me as I have read alot on the surgery and it should only take 3 hours. He was reluctant to answer some questions and was not willing to confirm extra services.
Dr Chettawut, again poor location, 7 hours for srs surgery and the real problem was surgery in his clinic. Didn't like the Vertical Suites and could not offer me additional services.
So I went to PAI which my therapist recommended. I met with Dr Preecha who owns the clinic and was the father of modern penile inversion technique and he is the teacher of Dr Suporn and Dr Chettawut. The clinic is modern and looked good, it's in the Thonglor area which is the in area for young wealthy Thais and expats who live in Bangkok. Lots of bars, clubs and restraunts.
Dr Preecha professed that he was too old to do the SRS but the he had 2 top surgeons and I opted for Dr Sutin. He also recommended that I do all three surgeries at one go ...srs, BA and FFS. With 3 surgeons and their team. Dr Preecha did my BA. Dr Surachai for ffs, Dr Sutin for srd and of course a great anesthetist.
The hospital they use is 5 star ...Piyavate Hospital, and used by many other srs surgeons. They have a dedicated team of surgeries and 15 nurses.... for srs which included a dedicated team that did all the hair follicle scraping for all srs surgeries. I had 15 nurse assisting.
My ffs included brow shaving, rhinoplasty, facelift and upper lip fat transfer. I had a ba with teardrop shape of 320cc under the muscle. My srs I wanted 6 inches depth and did not want alot of skin in the labia minora.the surgery took 4.5 hours and the ffs took the longe
st
I wanted extra service which was easily accommodated. I had a vip suite in the hospital and a private nurse. The private nurse was my crutch and she really made the experience wonderful.
I did have nausea after the surgery despite the anti nausea medication and my nurse and assistant held my hand all night as I threw up ...or tried to. Once they stopped the morphine drip some 19 hours after the operation my nausea disappeared. More important I had zero pain ...some discomfort but that was it.
I walked after 30 plus hours. I stayed in the hospital for 7 days and I must say the care was superb. I walked around the hospital daily. Over the course of 7 days my breast bandages were removed and saw my new breast ....gorgeous. has my face bandages removed and then my lower bandages removed and the packing taken out ... finally had the catheder removed. ....all painless ....no medication other than Tylenol. Walked out of the hospital feeling wonderful and bought the staff chocolates.
They day after I was picked up by car from my service apartment and was introduced to the dilating technique. My private nurse stayed with me at the apartment. I remember Jessie saying that I was too active but after two days of dilating at 6 inches and going out for 8 hours I developed a tear.. this made dilating more painful but it was my fault for not following advice.
So the first 2.5 weeks of dilating was quite an ordeal and had constant pain and ache. But now it's all calmed down.
Had my final checkup a few days ago all is well. My ffs was brilliant and Dr Surachai was the surgeon ...little swelling and no bruising. My breath are fully recovered and the swelling diminishing. The srs was brilliant and looks so real and beautiful.
I am ever so glad to have chosen PAI and I can highly recommend them.
