Title: FFS with HRT?
Post by: DirtyFox on April 09, 2013, 05:54:35 PM
After doing a little research and reading I can't say I have found anything really concrete other than it being of a "typical timeline".
My question is, do you need to be on HRT to undergo FFS? or is it only recommended before hand by doctors as a step? or does it have the possibility to change the face if you decide to start HRT at a later date?

Thanks, :) I hope you're having a fantastic day.

Just recommend. I mean if your over 18 you can def go ahead and at least get the none work done. Because hormones ant going to touch that

it's best to do HRT first and allow the fat to move around a bit. it may end up saving you a pretty penny.

I was under the impression that you should wait 18 months to two years after starting HRT to get FFS. The reasoning behind this being that HRT will most likely change your face in some manner and it is best to wait to see how it affects you.

You can wait but getting bone work done. Is fine because hormones won't change that
