My dear ladies

I am going to have FFS with Dr Bart in Antwerpen on next March 17th, Saint Patrick's Day... I hope some Irish lady around may have some thought to me that day  ..

He will basically do the bone shaving of the orbital rims, the hairline advance and eyebrow lift up, no heavy work on the upper face...

Then my nose will be reshaped, this is the major part of the job, he said he will spend more than 2 hours on it...

The cheeks will be filled with my fat, so I eat plenty of cheese those days, we have tons of it here in France...

Final step is the upper lip lift, and that's it, nothing is to be done on the chin, jaw or trachea... I'm quite lucky overall...

I am going to stay at the Enich Anders B&B, may be some other girl would be around between March 15th and 25th...

Below are links to some pictures of me such as taken some six months ago or so..with my still male face of course..

For sure I will have pictures taken after surgery of course, but I will not be able to upload them before being back home...

good luck Marie!

Dr. Bart is on my list as well. It looks like you have a great palette to start with. DO you mind if i ask how much he is charging for just the procedures you are having?

Seconded, I would be curious to know the pricing as well, especially orbital rm shaving. To me, it does not really look like You need hairline advance, but maybe doctor knows better .

I am not Irish, but will be turning 37 next March 17, so I will keep fingers crossed for Ya

I forgot to mention that I asked him to fix my left ear, total price is up to EUR 14.000 ... I think it is quite reasonable,even though it is a lot of $$$ of course ...

I think he did a very good evaluation of what you need. I think the procedures are spot-on. Good luck with your surgery.

Thanks a lot girls... now, 8 days to go...

Ladies....

Now in Antwerp.... The pre op checks are for tomorrow....

Big hug! You must have butterflies in your stomach! Best wishes!

Hugs, Devlyn

Yes, I have, but Dr Bart makes people feel so confident and relax.... I will tell more of it on Wednesday, since I will sleep at the clinic tomorrow night with no internet...
Thanks!
Marie

Looking forward to the update!

Hi Ladies

I am back home now, I met Dr Bart yesterday for the final check, he commented positively about the future results... good.. he also removed the stiches, around the eyes, aooouuuch...

The afters are from yesterday, no doubt I will look better in the coming days/weeks...

This was a great experience, I was emptied of my energy though, and I lost five kilograms...

I would recommend also the BB Enich Anders, the ladies are extremely kind ... and it is located one step ahead from Groen Plats, Central Antwerp...

There is no TV...

Cheers

Marie

The profile change is dramatic, congratulations.

Sure and I love my new nose, too... congrats are for Dr Bart, I just let him do...

You definitely look younger and much more feminine (though, extremely battered too .
Wish You speedy and hassle-free recovery and please do post more "after" pics .

P.S. Btw, I am curious which kind of procedure Dr. used on Your forehead - was it Type I surgery (bone burring) or more sophisticated reconstruction?

Thanks! For sure I will post more along the days... He operated a basic bone shaving on my orbital rims since they were no proeminent enough to worth type III, by chance... My skin is still swelled and streched over the forehead this is maybe why I look younger, but I am 50 ....

Ah, I just now saw in Your first post that he intended to do bone shaving only (my mistake) - reason I was asking was that judging from Your before-pics, we have (nope, used to have!) very similar facial structure there.
And You did not look 50 y.o. in Your before pics either, so...

Yes, and I needed no jaw or chin work too... this was even more chance I believe...
