Well, it's been a little over six weeks since I had facial feminization surgery with Dr. Spiegel in Boston. I wouldn't say I'm fully recovered yet, especially in places where scars are still clear. However, I'm feeling and looking way better than I was!
The recovery for the surgery was pretty rough. I took two and half weeks off from work and looked like a mess during that time. In the first few days I was so swollen I could barely see, drink, eat, or talk. Heck, it took two weeks to be able to start eating solid food again. The picture on the right was me three days after surgery.
I stayed overnight at the hospital after the surgery. My first night back at home ended up with me getting a slight infection, a fever of 103, and me needing to go to the ER. Fortunately, I had my dad and sister take turns spending time at my house to take care of me for the first week or so.
One of the good parts of how the FFS was done by Dr. Spiegel was that out of the ten incisions I had, seven of them were inside my mouth. Sure it made eating and talking a real pain for a few weeks, but all those scars won't be all over my face. The worst of the incisions is about 14 inches long and extends from the top of one ear, goes across my hairline, and goes all the way to the top of my other ear. Also, my scalp will still be numb for about 6 to 8 months.
It's striking to see the before and after pictures of the different angles of my face. You can see the differences the most in my nose, brow depth, chin, cheeks, and jawline. This may not be 100% how I end up looking since I'm still only six weeks post op. I did these before and after pictures with a relaxed face so you could more clearly see the details.
I have one other last bit of good news. My next next surgery, breast augmentation, got moved up three weeks by the doctor and I'll be having it in just one month from today! Here's hoping that recovery should be a bit easier than what I just went through. I'm really excited for it!
Transition Update 8, Day 500, Plans
Well, there's been only one transition update over the last seven months, so I suppose an overdue update is better than nothing at all. Even though I've been on hormones for about a year and half, I'm still living part time as a guy and girl. However, that will be changing very soon.
On October 20th, I'll be having Facial Feminization surgery with Dr. Spiegel in Boston. After seeing what he can do, I anticipate I'll look VERY different after the recovery from this. I'll be away from work for 10 to 14 days to rest and heal. Rest assured, I've been planning this for a long time so that everything will continue to run smoothly while I'm gone. I
Transition Update 7, Day 366, One Year
Well, it's been one year since I started hormones, if you can believe it. It's been a long year full of impatience, struggling, and progress. The main topic I wanted to share with you all is what to expect after a year of hormones. For people who are considering it, or are starting out, they think they'll have the figure of a model and 36C breasts after one year. Well, I'll share my personal experiences to give you a real sense of expectations.
The main point I get from looking at the chart over time is how my measurements only seemed dependent on my fluctuating weight rather than the hormones. There might have been one or two things t

Transition Update 6 - Day 282: Hormone Levels
It's been a little over nine months now since I started this whole thing. I thought I'd be doing more of these updates over the course of the process, but honestly there hasn't been much to report. Plus, I try to make these updates positive, but I would be doing potential transgender people out there a disservice if I didn't do honest updates, too. I never really feel like I'm changing all that much. During my nine month hormone level checkup, I might have found a big reason for that.

Surgical feminization of the face includes a wide range of possible procedures to soften facial features. For example, forehead feminization, fat grafting, nose correction, shaving of the frontal bone and others. As you can see, all these procedures can be performed on both male and female patients.
