Ladies,
I had FFS with Dr Mardirossian last February. I had brow reduction, rhinoplasty, upper lip shortening, face and neck lift, and lower blephorplasty. I am impressed with my results. One thing that I did not get is the cheek implants. At the time of surgery, I felt that I did not need or want cheek implants. Dr Mardirossian says that nothing feminizes as much as high cheek bones. I am still not convinced, but I may change my mind later.
Many of the procedures can be done by any good facial plastic surgeon. However, the frontal brow ridge reduction is very specialized. Dr mardirossian studied under Dr Spiegel in Boston and uses a similar technique. The forehead skin is pulled down and the frontal ridge bone is removed in one piece, reshaped, and then replaced and held in place with small titanium plates and screws. Recovery takes just a about a week and I was driving myself around town on the 8th day after surgery. One month later, I went on a scuba dive to 80 feet deep without any problems.
I am sure you have seen his before/after photos on his website. From other patients I have personally seen, those results are typical.
I would recommend Dr Mardirossian for any facial procedure, especially for feminizing procedures.
One of these days I will post my before/after photos, but with only 4 months post-op, I am not quite fully settled in.
Many people say wait a full 6 months before you evaluate your results.
