Hello there,
You're always going to find negatives and positives for every surgeon. They are human, not God. Some results turn out better than others and you can't believe every single thing you read on the internet. One thing is for sure, Suporn is a very popular guy, so much that he's booked all the way through February 2015. That should tell you something. I've read way more positives than negatives. I trust that he will give me a good result when my time comes up.
If you did research for months like you say and chose Dr. Suporn, there must've been a good reason you made that decision, right? I understand you are worried and fearful and you should be! This is major surgery! But go with your gut and have faith that everything will turn out as you expect.
Best wishes!
Indeed - I went with Suporn because of a lot of benefits such as no electrolysis cutting time to get done and the costs. Further with the claims of great results and the views about others it was a no brainer after a while. In a sense I had gotten hit after payment with the 'oh this - this is it and finally going to happen' with the usual doubts and questions as to if I made the right choice and the ilk. I know darn well I'll get hit with these thoughts even worse when I'm finally there.
Reading all the anti-posts at a vulnerable time due to stress from preparation and planning after the decision pulled at me downhill causing me to panic and freak out. Stress being waiting for replacement BirthCert to arrive, getting passport, flight tickets, getting a bed so I don't scream in agony post-op because I sleep on an uncomfortable couch that causes back pain, the long flight there (I'm uneasy about flights that make stops), etc.
From replies from you girls and more reading through the forums here I've felt more at ease (especially Elainagirl's reply and reading your thread helped me alot JenJen in reassuring me, thanks!
).
I know they aren't god and most definitely human as it was a tough choice even from the beginning. At first I even considered Dr. Reed in Miami, Florida a long time back due to the fact he was a few hours drive away until looking more into everything. Then thought of Bowers and McGinn but the prices and overall length of aftercare were factored in. Ended upon Suporn due to the achievement of depth and still attain favourable cosmetic results [had to consider what I have.. or lack thereof as the factor] along with a fair amount of aftercare. Over time there wasn't much to sway my decision at that point.
So now the last question that remains now is to wonder who's going to be there Mid-August/Mid-September.

The primary reason most surgeons don't do a posterior fourchette is due to surgical limitations, the additional work needed creates a little too much tension in the region. It's probably doable as a revision, but not until after you are healed - it won't be in the first 28 days..
As for which surgeon? That really is a personal choice. One thing I will say, is that all surgeons have bad days or come across difficult patients..
Ah, that makes sense as to why it cannot be done especially with a one-pass technique in most cases. Thanks for the heads up on that.
Didn't expect it within 28 days, goodness no! Was saying at least if I have any issues or complaints I'm there to present them during those 28 days. Another reason I find the length of aftercare important as Less aftercare ends up being more time early on for issues to arise after release so extra aftercare is for peace of mind as well as risk reduction. Might as well take advantage of it! ^^
