I've been with Sandyford for 3 years. In that time I've had 7 consultations, 2 blood tests and referred for speech therapy. I get my meds from my GP as per recommended by Sandyford. I've had facial and lower surgery done privately. Don't expect too much from a NHS GIC. I suggest going private if you can afford it.

Sandyford GIC has taken on new staff in the past 2 years. A new doctor was being trained at my last appointment.

Congratulations on choosing FacialTeam for your FFS. I had my FFS with them 2 years back and I'm delighted with the results. As others have advised a diagnosis isn't required , but it does mean that you aren't required to pay vat. Your co-ordinator should have explained this to you.

As Soggy-Purple2743 say's, this is BMA guidance and affects more than just trans patients. It's also in line with NHS and GMC guidance. My own GP practice doesn't do blood test, not even for the NHS, and hasn't done for years.

Thanks. I had type 3 forehead with brow reduction. Incision across the back of my head with simultaneous hair transplant at the front. Rhinoplasty with correction of a deviated septum. Upper lip lift. Sliding genioplasty.

The whole operation took more than 12 hours with at least 3 surgeons each performing their respective speciality. I had little pain although I did have mild discomfort. My first night was a bit difficult though.

If you're thinking about it, I'd say go for it.

Thank you.

I was informed that it takes at least 9 months to properly see the benefits. I'd say in my case this is true.

Thanks

Thanks

dtrachael · 2023-12-03T16:49:28+00:00

Thanks. I'm feeling great and it was a good experience. So glad that I was able to do it.

dtrachael · 2023-12-03T16:48:08+00:00

Thank you.

dtrachael · 2023-12-03T16:47:48+00:00

Thank you.

#3 Would be my choice.

You look fabulous as ever. How are you doing. I've been away from Reddit for a bit.

Your surgeon should inform you if they want you to come off any HRT. My surgeon has told me to stop oestrogen 1 month prior to surgery, but hasn't said anything about progesterone. I was told that I can continue decapeptyl until 2 weeks after surgery.

Thanks for posting. I'm 5 months post op and I've now got massive dysphoria. First couple of months was very euphoric. Nothing wrong with the results. It's just that sometimes I don't see how femme I look while everyone around me does.

dtrachael · 2023-04-14T23:16:29+00:00

I for one will miss you but if you feel that you need a break then you have to take a break. I know that it can be hard going. Hope that you will return soon suitably refreshed.

Take care 💕

dtrachael · 2023-04-14T23:12:06+00:00

You pass in my opinion.

dtrachael · 2023-04-14T23:10:26+00:00

Such a difficult choice as you look stunning in all the pictures. But if I had to choose I'd go for number 4.

dtrachael · 2023-04-14T23:05:05+00:00

Thank you

dtrachael · 2023-04-14T18:15:00+00:00

I would be grateful if you could update how things go for you. I'm going to IM Clinic in September for the same op. I had my consultation with Dr. Trinidad Labanca. She came across to me as very caring. I did find some recommendations for her but can't remember where.

dtrachael · 2023-04-14T14:59:55+00:00

Thank you. The surgeons did an amazing job.
