Title: Need Input on FFS Surgeons
Post by: Wynternight on November 25, 2016, 12:34:54 AM
Due to reasons both various and sundry it would appear that Dr. Z. needs to be taken off my list off surgeons. I'm looking at PAI and Rossi and would appreciate input on them to help me make an informed decision.

Thank you all.

Hi, I'm a PAI girl and had all three procedures done at one time. My FFS was done by Dr Surichai and I was very pleased with the outcome. I had a brow shave and a lowering of the hairline, a narrowing of the nose, fatty tissue in my upper lip and a general rejuvinating face lift. I was very happy with the outcome. You can see from my avitar.

The quality of care is fantastic and the nurses at Piyavite Hospital were outstanding. Dr Surichai does not make such major changes unless you instruct him, he tends to keep your character in his final outcome.

Hopefully Richinda, a friend and contributer to this forum,  can write about her FFS which is scheduled in the next couple of weeks, and hopefully  can write about her PAI experience. She had a previous procedure done and was very happy with the outcome.

Agreed - you look gorgeous. That's a good vote in favour of PAI. Another is their price. I would be going for FFS and BA. I still have 10 months to go on my RLT .

I don't think you need RLT.

I meant for the FFS and BA. I can't get the GCS done at the same time since I have to do the RLT.

No RLT for PAI? Can someone confirm this? And give me some input on their outcomes compared to Brassard.

Outstanding! Thank you for posting these.

Do you mind if I message you, Warlockmaker?

If you don't need RLE how do you get a psychiatric letter of approval? The psychiatrists where I live require 12 months of RLE I think. Will PAI do an assessment for us in lieu of that?

Hola,

Having met Warlockmaker in the flesh I can tell you she's gorgeous. I hope she won't mind me saying too that she showed me her 'before' pic. PAI have done fabulous work enhancing her face.

I'm going under Dr Sutin's FFS scalpel on Friday so will keep you posted but everything I've encountered with PAI so far has been top notch. Dr Sutin performed my orchiectomy in July and the reason I have flown back to Thailand for FFS with them is based on that experience, and meeting Warlockmaker.

N.B. I don't gain anything from saying I think PAI are great. I don't work for, or with, them and mostly live in the UK at the moment.

p.s. yes on price. $14,900 vs c $22,000+ in Europe for the same procedure.
