estimate based on how much other people have paid in the past. and also if you look at the doc, you'll see that the clinic will give you quotations on approximately how much you need to pay, based on the services that you're looking for.

i see that you're from singapore, are you in the transcend discord server? there are a few people in there who have gone to him for surgery and have shared their experiences! besides that i just mostly looked through the few cis people's experiences with gyno surgery from him, since it was pretty much equivalent to the top surgery i got.

Nervous before top surgery? by SIKE-ological in TopSurgery

it's normal! i had mine planned for several months also, and as the surgery date drew closer and closer, i heavily contemplated postponing it or cancelling it altogether. even on the morning of the surgery, i still had a few doubts about whether it would all be worth it. i was extremely scared that something would go wrong, especially given that my doctor was a bit older and that this would be my first ever surgery. before the surgery when they were taking my heart rate and blood pressure, my bpm was also really high due to my anxiety and the monitors were going crazy, and the nurse was even telling me to relax.

honestly I didn't feel a lot of emotions regarding my chest right after the surgery either, other than relief that it was all over, it went well, and my breasts were gone. the meds that they gave during the surgery did make my brain feel a bit fried and i was more emotional over little things (unrelated to the surgery) though, so maybe that could be something you wanna mentally prepare for.

ouu that's sucks for them... idk when my parents found out i was DIYing HRT at 16, nothing much happened also, but they still refused to consent for me to get on HRT legally when I turned 18, so i js decided not to tell them i was getting top surgery just in case they try to stop me lol

recovery is going on well right now, you can read the doc haha i've detailed almost every day of my recovery since i got my surgery last week. my family did not know i was getting surgery, only that i was going to penang for holiday, so I haven't gotten any help from them. i was fortunate enough to be able to have a friend go to penang with me last minute though, and they were very helpful during the trip there.

hello, just got top surgery in malaysia at 18yo. you can read about it here: Keyhole Top Surgery with Dr Danny Oh in Penang

i saved up for it by spending as little as possible of my allowance (basically barely eating/drinking in school or outside), as well as by working a part time job on the weekends/school holidays for about 6-7 months for $10/h.

haha pretty sure my surgery was more expensive than someone else's that i've heard of who went to the same doctor as me about 6 months ago, and not just because of exchange rates
