Title: FFS help
Post by: violet.mayfair on July 02, 2016, 02:14:48 PM
Hello Girls:

I am new to FFS and I've been learning a few things gradually.

I want to know more about FFS and its costs. I hear Mexico (especially Dr. Cardenas) and Argentina are pretty good and cheap, but I see Dr. Cardenas' website posts amount in USD, which are quite high.

I am very confused.. Could someone steer me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Violet

Well, not a girl, but a long ago transitioned older woman who went to Dr Rossi in Buenos Aires.

Hmmm, trying to figure out how to respond.

FFS is very serious surgery, requiring expertise beyond the skills of most plastic surgeons.  There is nothing "cheap" about it, if by "cheap" you mean low cost.  Low cost also being a relative term.  Can you define what you think "cheap" is?

I traveled to Buenos Aires because I believed Dr Rossi could do FFS and related soft tissue procedures for ~ 1/2 the cost of well known US surgeons. I am very happy with my results.

FWIW, it took me 10 years to save for FFS.  In that time period I went from needing just Type III FFS only to last year when in addition to FFS I ended up getting a lot of age related procedures done too.
