Hi all!
Decided to give an update. I am about 1 month and 2 weeks post op .
Ill start from top to bottom
forehead- Dr Z shaved and rid the muscle lines that were in my forehead making it completely smooth. (he did tell me that he didnt know if he could make it smooth UPFRONT as some cis women have slight shadowing as well and thats normal) but he did. He RID it. my forehead is completely smoothed out and rounded.
Hair advancement- He brought this down quite a bit. Ill still need hair transplants to feel 100 percent confident about it, but he did do what he could and im forever pleased..BECAUSE it looks better than what it did.
Forehead scar and forehead sensation - my forehead scar is fading. i can cover it up with makeup with no problem . I i cant feel the top of my head yet, but its coming back slowly i can tell. ( ive been through this twice now) it feels like something is on your head, and often if youll check, its like layers coming off that "something"
Nose- Despite what ive read from other about his "piggish nose", i can confirm, at least on my behalf.. that my nose did turn out piggish immediately after surgery. TODAY, it is absolutely flawless. OMG im SOOOOO happy with it. I actually was contemplating on even getting it since ive had it done twice and i didnt want to look weird. IM so hppy i did. he took some ridges down and made it softer as well. I had some nose dents on the side of each nostril that he took away. IM SO PLEASED with this .
nose breathing- I still feel stuffy and my nose still drains, but thats expected . im still early.
upper lip lift- GET IT. if you need it GET IT . it makes a big difference in your appearance and it doesnt make you look long faced. the scar is kinda ugly, honestly, but its getting better and better by the day. I CAN cover it up with makeup however. I expect it to be slightly there in a couple of months.
Mouth- i cant open it wide at all! im sure theres progress of some sort as i can talk better, but i still cant open my mouth wide at this time. which according to the nurse, is normal and will take time .
Chin- may i fall out now?
i...love it... he took my chin implant out. in old pictures you can see my chin kind of protruding out. he brought it in seems and made it smaller. giving me a nice soft v shape. it stills feels numb there.
jaw+jaw body- this looks great too.. i think my jaw wasnt that bad before- so i think the work on the jaw body and the muscles actually is the big difference in my case.
neck tightening+ neck corset- this has gots to be one of the most painful procedures out of everything honestly. My left side is the one that gives me
problems.At times it still feels tight and it just hurts. IT looks great though, but it does hurt. Im glad i got it done, and i think every person pursing ffs needs to consider this as it makes your neck look feminine and flows with everything.
fat grafting- i adore my cheeks, to me their perfect. my lips i loveeeeeeeee omg. this was dramatic. a few weeks ago i was worried that they were going to be to big, but they do go down ladies . the other fat grating areas just kind of blend into the look. i cant really tell much of a difference, but im sure there is .
Breast- i went from a 38 B to a 38 D- perfect size on me. i feel sexay . NOW they do feel heavy for the first few weeks. My biggest request was i did not want them to look stuck on like two balls . He listened and gave me, again what i asked for. They are beautiful . Now they have softened up a lot since ive got them . they hurt when i get up off the bed. i can sleep on my stomach and side,but not to long. i have to alternate between or they start hurting. when i up off the bed, i automatically hold them as it feels like they are about to fall off of me lol.
People reaction that knew my face before - they dont even recognize me (in a good way) i told dr i wanted him to be aggressive and i didn't want to look the same . ( why spend all this money just to look the same?) Ive been called very pretty plenty of times. I went to lunch with a friend who knows me from my past life. I didnt tell her i went for ffs. She noticed my boobs as well as she noticed how different i look. she says that i look amazing and different. Im getting more and more looks from guys. which ive been getting them, but now its like all the time ! i dont know if its my boobs or what!!! lol .
***in conclusion*** . I can only tell you that i am absolutely happy!!!! Im SO happy about my decision to go to dr Z. I have no complaints what so ever about the work that he did to my face . I look passable from all angles. I looked at pictures before and WOW .. im kinda like a new person. I didnt see how much things changed until looking back ...seriously made me say, "and i thought i was cute" lol! Dr Z is truely amazing. I cant thank him enough . He has restored my confidence . I will always love and adore him for that.
my questions to post op ffs ladies- how long did it take for your mouth to go back to normal?
