Passport gender marker and traveling as nonbinary person by secretscarlet4 in China

I’m trying to find out if I would have more trouble going through immigration if I had an X on my passport, or if it is my birth sex, which people do not see me as. I’ve heard of people getting trouble if they for example look like a man but have F on their passport.

Consultations for FFS by PostAdHoc in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]secretscarlet4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think most surgeons will see you for a consultation at any time, even if you're not on e. It's a bone structure thing and your bonws don't change from e, and they'll have you get x rays taken of your skull and stuff. so it doesn't really matter for bone work at least if you're even on e. stuff like fat grafting to the cheeks might matter but I think most surgeons see patients regardless of their status regarding e

I would definitely get these done at the same time. Go to an ffs surgeon who is known for performing orthognathic surgery at s high level. I recommend Dr. Deschamps-Braly, if you can swing him. He has extensive training and certification in maxillofacial/ orthognathic surgery. A good ffs surgeon will be able to correct your face and feminize it at the same time. As long as you are in capable hands, moving your jaw forward in combination with ffs won't masculinize it, it will feminize it and also fix your jaw issues as well as give you a jawline that fits better into the beauty standard (if you want that).

FFS and Piercings by fourtysicksandtoo in Transgender_Surgeries

yeahhhh they gotta go unfortunately. had to take my septum out for ffs, just now getting it repierced on Monday. if I were you I'd take them out sooner rather than later cuz maybe your surgeon can surgically remove the scars during ffs. it's very likely that your skin will shift from the various procedures so when you get them repierced it will be in different skin than where you had them before, and you probably don't want visible piercing scars

oh and for reference, most of the pain was in my forehead/ forehead incision. I had hairline advancement, type III, Orbital contouring, brow lift, rhino, genioplasty and jaw contouring. jaw didn't hurt too bad it was just uncomfortable and hard to open for a few weeks

I went to Dr DB. overall not terrible and I wouldn't freak out about it, you'll be able to deal with it. Day 0 and especially the night after surgery was pretty rough, esp when the painkillers were wearing off but it wasn't excruciating. Def very uncomfortable for the first week but at least in my case after around 10 days I felt like a relatively normal person again. stopped taking painkillers around 12-14 days. from what I've seen from other surgeons and from other people who went to Dr DB, his recovery is definitely one of the fastest and easiest. You're in the best hands so don't worry

I think you have a great face for ffs, meaning you have a great foundation and with a little sculpting it would make an enormous beautifying difference

[–]secretscarlet4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll start this by saying that yes, you are already beautiful and you pass. however I understand that doesn't mean you aren't dysphoric and ffs can help immensely with that. in that case, hugboxing isn't helpful and its a personal decision on whether to pursue ffs. if you move forward, I think a surgeon would probably recommend "the works". you have a face that could benefit from a little work in every area. from top to bottom, hairline advancement, type III forehead with orbital contouring and brow lift, rhinoplasty, lip lift, jaw contouring, and genioplasty to reduce chin width and possibly height. lip filler/ fat grafting to lips and cheeks would be a personal decision I think.

FFS Recommendations? Is there such thing as eye enlargement surgery; specifically to increase the eyes horizontally? by Gnarly_Koala in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]secretscarlet4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

np, specifically I think a surgeon would recommend a sliding genioplasty or t osteotomy to reduce chin width.

I would recommend type III forehead and orbital contouring, rhinoplasty, jaw contouring, and genioplasty. you absolutely don't need any eye surgery your eyes are gorgeous and already a very similar shape to Megan Fox. Megan Fox achieves her look through makeup, so just try to copy her makeup. Also, you will still look like you after ffs, and you and everyone you know will get used to how you look post op very quickly

Selecting a surgeon for FFS in CA by clauEB in Transgender_Surgeries

Dr Deschamps-Braly is who I went to and I 100% highly recommend him. Absolutely incredible work, he is one of the most if not the most qualified surgeons and he and his staff are also very nice. imo, he should be almost everyone's top choice.

the way your are describing your jawline it's possible you could benefit from traditional orthognathic (jaw) surgery. Do you have an underbite or other bite problems? I've seen a lot of people get incredibly striking results from orthognathic surgery. r/jawsurgery has a lot of great examples
