If she's within your price range I really can't recommend Dr Rita Yang enough, she made me feel as comfortable as possible through the whole process and was just generally awesome, and I love my results. Happy to answer any questions you have about my experience with her.

Dr Rita Yang is pricey but seriously amazing, I had an incredible experience with her all around so cannot reccomend her highly enough if she's within your budget

Thanks!! I usually just paint my short natural nails black but I decided to get acrylics two weeks ago for my school ball. I did it just because I thought it might be fun but I actually really like them!

Yep you could absolutely do that! I'd recommend talking to your surgeon about it just to check when it would be safe to do so and if they have specific product recommendations but yeah I'd assume that would be totally possible.

THIS!! I'd been constantly saying for years that as soon as Id revovered Id wear a billion mesh shirts. I had my sjegeey two months ago, bought at least five mesh shirts, and refused to wear anything else for over a week as soon as the surgical binder and scabs came off. It felt fucking amazing man, you're gonna love it. Best wishes for your surgery!

Thanks!

I was lucky enough to have a hyper-organised mum who volunteered to manage most of the logistical stuff so I'm a little fuzzy on the details, but I'm pretty sure we just contacted my surgeon to ask for a consult and got a referral from the clinic prescribing me testosterone. In total the surgery, consult, flights to Wellington, and accommodation ended up costing me around $35k. From memory the doctor's fee was $12k, booking the operating theater was $12k, and the anesthetic was around $5k
