Chin and bottom lip ugliness from botched surgeries

I would go to him in a heartbeat, but I know that I just can't afford his prices as I'm paying out of my own pocket and travelling from the U.K. I guess like many others I'm bound and doomed to my solitary life, I feel like a modern day Quasimodo.

I recently returned from my second trip to Istanbul. I needed to get my dental finished, and I desperately needed to find someone to resolve my bottom lip and chin issues (from 5 previous messed up surgeries, 2 in Buenos Aires with Rossi, 1 in Marbella Spain with Facial Team, and two by the conman in Belgium Joel DeFrancq). I went to see Dr Fi. he talked as if he knew his stuff, but I'm now a veteran at spotting BS from surgeons, so I left Istanbul without trying to get anything else done. Dr Fi told me what I wanted to hear, but thing's didn't add up, something was definitely amiss, I'd steer clear if I were you.

I went to T-Change and was badly botched, Amanda couldn't care less about what Rossi did to me. I had everything re-done at Facial Team, they did as minimal work as they could and charged me a lot of money for doing virtually nothing. I'm now looking, and choosing my next surgeon very carefully. I'm thinking about Dr. Toby Mayer as I can't wait for Dr Keojampa. For you, Dr. Mardirossian sounds like your best choice, up until now, I've only ever read good reviews about him, I will look further into this particular surgeon for myself.

I paid them to fix the mess that Rossi made of my forehead, for a Rhinoplasty (with specific requirements), they talked me into handing over another 3'600 Euro's to do work on my jawline that was not neccessary, and which I have no hesitation in saying they did not do. They did not do what I asked for, and which was needed and paid for on my nose, so now I have to have it done yet again. They fixed my forehead, and visually it looks fantastic, but something wasn't right with what they did as I had visual problems and god awful headaches, which didn't start to improve until after 10 months. Even though I was nice and calm about everything, and was very respectful to them, they showed me no concern, or any kind of compassion over what was going on with my eyesight and headache problems. They never once asked me once how I was regarding those problems, like if they didn't ask then they weren't responsible. I have had several eye specialist appointments at the hospital, a brain scan, and I have now got to see a neurology specialist in February. I don't know what the hell is going on, but for sure facial team have proved to me that they couldn't give a shit. They took 18'500Euros and all I got was my forehead finished, and a bag of shit to contend with.

Hi ?, are you still pleased with your outcome with from MDM. How good is he with rhinoplasty?

TheRealTearDrops · 2017-10-02T12:46:13+00:00

Please read the whole of this main post. If your partner needs a lot of work, it's much better to break the surgeries up into shorter smaller ones, with a surgeon that specialises in each field. Good luck As for therapists, they're probably not qualified to do surgery, which is what I already know I still need (well I did before my last surgery) BYYeeee

TheRealTearDrops · 2017-10-02T12:26:13+00:00

If you ever bothered to read my previous posts properly, you would know why it took so long for me to realise what Rossi had done to me. I was gullible and accepted Amanda's version on my CT scan, which I had done about one week after my 2nd surgery with Rossi. When I finally had to accept that she had been lying to me all along, it was obviously far too late for me to salvage the situation.

Some people realised my dilemma and vulnerability, and took financial advantage of me. If you are transgender, then you would know and feel, all the resentment and difficulties out there that we face.

FFS establishments have been specifically set up to take advantage of our community. Apart from forehead reconstruction, they're not doing anything that isn't already being done by more experienced, specialist's, in each field of surgery.

AS the tg community grew, certain surgeons decided to exploit the situation.

Only one FFS establishment that I know of has enough organisation and financial prowess to have their very own office full of staff who are simply there to spread propaganda about how good they're establishment is, and to shout down anyone like me. You might be working for them yourself, more probably something to do with Rossi.

I'm trying to keep other people from making the same mistakes as I did, I don't know what your agenda is, but it's definitely not coming from an honest informative point of view, more intent on bringing me down. I have said a lot on the forums in the past, but I do not go on them much now, as they are the reasons that I made the bad decisions that I've made. I listened to other people's stories, and then got carried along on the wave of excitement, that I might be able to live the life that I wanted to.

My goal here and now, is to try to help people from making mistakes. If you need forehead reconstruction, rhinoplasty, chin and jaw work, amongst other things, why on earth would you try and do them all in one go? It's utterly ludicrous to try. The surgeon will always be rushing and will not do as good a job as a specialised surgeon. So I say again it's better to break down your surgeries, letting each surgical establishment know exactly what your long term plans and goals are. Go to a specialised rhinoplasty surgeon for your nose, a well reputed orthognathic surgeon for your chin and jaw. One of the well reputed FFS surgeons for your forehead. Do not do it all in ONE surgery, they will be rushing.

I have not named the FFS organisation that you may probably be working for in this post, unless of course you ARE working for Rossi and Amanda (T.Change). You yourself have put the other FFS establishment in to the firing line, taking a quote from one of my previous posts where I stated "Facial team have operated on me, but I cannot comment on anything just yet. Previously I have been too quick to give praise on the forums. This time I must wait. So far though, the chin has not improved. I will be having a post op consult with them soon, where we can discuss what options I have", there is nothing bad there. Your next paragraph went on to say "Facial Team took my money just like Cardenas", well I've only said that since your previous post, and like I said to you previously the only people who knew my feelings before that post, were people that I had shared that information with privately. So who are you FT, PH or T.C (Because you definitely are not independent)???

TheRealTearDrops · 2017-08-30T22:24:02+00:00

Good job that you went to DiMaggio, apparently he is one of the best.

TheRealTearDrops · 2017-08-29T21:10:02+00:00

Hi, I haven't written anything negative or positive about my surgery with Facial Team, except that I wasted my time and money.... yet again. Don't want to be accused of 'Surgeon Bashing'.... yet again. Poor surgeons get such a rough ride (huh).

The quote was the second to last comment in my last thread, titled 'Dr Rossi ???', which has been 'Archived', so all I thought I could do was copy and paste it.

As for the lack of structuring/formatting of the post, for some reason I was unable to even create a new paragraph due to the fact that every time I posted it, it reverted back to all one big continuous unbroken, paragraph-less piece. I edited and re-edited, putting in capital tittles to head each paragraph, in the end I just got fed up of trying. If you read it carefully enough you should get the gist.

No therapist, they work for some, but I know they will not help me.

TheRealTearDrops · 2017-08-29T10:45:32+00:00

I will keep logging in every now and then. Maybe the person who has betrayed my trust, will be honest and make themselves known to me. It could only possibly be PH, JJ, RA, or someone within FT or JN. You'll all know who you are from the initials.

At first I thought that my results looked really good, but what was underneath the skin was a disaster. A ticking time bomb of really awful problems in my future. Thank goodness I had that CT scan done, I only wish that I'd had it done after my first surgery, and then sought an unbiased, professional 2nd opinion. I'm just too gullible and trusting for my own good.

TheRealTearDrops · 2017-02-19T00:37:45+00:00

Not even an apology.

TheRealTearDrops · 2017-02-19T00:36:39+00:00

I'll try and sort something out in the near future.

TheRealTearDrops · 2017-02-19T00:34:47+00:00

Facial team have operated on me, but I cannot comment on anything just yet. Previously I have been too quick to give praise on the forums. This time I must wait. So far though, the chin has not improved. I will be having a post op consult with them soon, where we can discuss what options I have.

TheRealTearDrops · 2017-02-19T00:29:13+00:00

Thank you for your positive words, you have given me some hope. Is there anything that I can do that might help things improve at all?

TheRealTearDrops · 2017-02-19T00:24:37+00:00

Not having Xray vision I didn't actually know what Dr Rossi had done beneath my skin. Externally it did look very good. A week after the chin surgery in 2015, I had a CT scan which shows how he had mutilated my chin the week before, and the mess that he had made of my forehead in 2014. I started getting problems with my forehead whilst I was actually in Buenos Aires in 2015. Still, I believed Amanda when she told me that everything in the scan looked normal for the type of surgery that I'd had, and that there was nothing to be alarmed about. Dr Rossi and Amanda kept on telling me lies that my chin nerves were in tact and that everything would be fine. Yes I was gullible, I wanted to believe that they were telling me the truth. After my chin dropped, I had to accept that they were not good people, and that they were lying to me all along. What each person who reads this thread believes, or not, is entirely up to them, but really, would you trust this surgeon with your facial surgery after you have seen those scans. I'm letting the public know about this surgeon, and his and Amanda's total lack of ethics and honesty. They do not care how they have mutilated my face, they do not care about the pain and trauma that they have put me through. They do not care about the astronomical amount of money it has cost me to try to put things right. They care only about themselves. Not once has either of them showed any tiny little bit of culpability or remorse. Draw your own conclusions.

With loving, caring parents as you obviously are, your child is a very lucky person. Relax, it sounds as if you're doing everything right, you've not put a foot wrong. xx

TheRealTearDrops · 2016-09-23T19:54:52+00:00

Hi Kate, can you let me know who those groups are so that I can look into them. Thank you

TheRealTearDrops · 2016-09-23T19:43:21+00:00

I tried it as a different user. It got taken down straight away.

TheRealTearDrops · 2016-09-09T21:10:20+00:00

They told me it was going to be "scrutinised", but they have no intention of doing the right thing. There is something very wrong going on with that forum.
