Facial Feminization Surgery FFS part two

FFS part two
   Well like us all we are never completely satisfied about our self’s. This is practically true for people with transgender disorder. You start off thinking hormones will be adequate but then after a year or so, you look in the mirror and see you still have those male features that you hate have not gone. So you make arrangements for your first FFSurgery you have it then after some time the old feelings come back. So off for more FFS you go.
   Well that is the way it is with me. I would look in the mirror and see my thin lips that make me look mean then there is the shape of my face it still looks triangular and sharp features making me look masculine. So contacted Dr.Saran and made arrangements for a consultation. He did not want to use implants but suggested fillers and Botox. After arriving at Bangkok and seeing Dr.Saran I decided that I would have fat taken from my stomach and have it put into my lips cheeks and each side of my nose. I had cancer on my nose so major surgery is out. Fortunately I had all the necessary blood and cardio test with me so it saved time.
   Then came the day for surgery. Dr.Saran he has a surgery where he can perform small operations, which saved the expense of a hospital theater. I was given anesthetic and off to sleep I went. On waking my navel felt a bit funny where they had taken the lipo-suction, it left a few bruises that soon went away. My face felt surprisingly good. But when I looked in the mirror what a shock (good), I had high cheeks, my lips looked really good and my nose looked smaller. By placing fat at each side of my nose it gave the appearance of it looking smaller. Dr.Saran also used Botox in my frown line and just above my eye brows to help open up me eye area. All in all I was tickled pink.
   Recovery was very easy, after a few days I had the stitches out of my navel. Now when I look in the mirror I see a much softer face looking back at me and then I smile with my new lips. 
In recovery 

The new me :)
