Title: Just had FFS done in Brazil
Post by: Achila on March 30, 2014, 03:00:14 PM
Hi peeps. I am back from Brazil after going thru FFS. Recovery is going great. Not bruised at all. I did a Rinoplasty (nose), orbital bone and brow recontouring, cheeks lift (instead of cheek implants). I do not like the fake looks of implants on my face. Well, I am happy, I am aware that the swelling is very normal, and this is why I look almost the same as before FFS because my nose and eyes are still healing. However, I can tell the relationship between upper, middle, and lower face/thirds were softened significantly. These new proportions will give me a passable looks in 3-4 months once the swelling is gone. So far it has been only 19 days...lol

I did not need to recountour my jaw line, which could be done, adding few more thousands onto the bill. Total was 24K, inlcuding 2 days in the clinic and 15 days w nurse.

I'm happy for you Achila!

I have never researched about the costs of FFS here, altough I live in São Paulo...Was it that expensive? Oh my god...I will need to sell my kidney then!  :o I want to have some FFS done on the future and I was thinking it would be around half that price!

In which clinic was your FFS made, if I can ask?

Natalia, I actually mistakenly informed the cost in Brazilian Dollars instead of U.S. Dollars. The U.S Dollar amount converted from BRL$ is U$11450. It was not expensive at all in relation to the cost of the same procedures if done here in the United States. Here, in the U.S. they go for about 20K and up. I was very fortunate. Another friend is doing her FFS at Facial Team in Sao Paulo, one of the best out there, and she is paying about U$14K.
Thus, correcting my last post, the cost of my procedures were U$11450.
