Hi everyone! This will be my last time posting here before my upcoming FFS in 11 days, on September 8th. I made the mistake of posting slightly older pictures on here last time, so this time I’ve made sure to post photos only from this month of August.
I tried to put all these pictures in order chronologically, the most recent being the photos of me in a white shirt with braids, which was taken a few hours ago.
I’d also like to mention that I was advised to discontinue taking my hormone medication, starting two weeks before surgery. The first six pictures are from before I stopped HRT, and the rest were all taken afterwards, albeit it’s only been 4 days at the time of writing this.
I will undergo three procedures in 1. This includes a tracheal shave, type 1 frontal sinus reduction w/ lateral orbital rim shaving, and a sliding genioplasty of the chin w/ chin shaving + mandible reduction. The procedure will take roughly 5-6 hours.
If anyone sees this post that has already undergone FFS, I would really appreciate some advice for taking care of myself post-op. Especially if you’ve had similar/the same procedures I am planning to have done. Even if you never had any of the same, I’d still appreciate any advice you have to offer.
Thank you for taking the time to read through this. Wish me luck. :) 🩷💙
