Hi , as anyone had any FFS done at the Agave Clinic in Spain ?

Some may be interested that the clinic uses Dr Ousterhout techniques.

Andrea, thanks for the link. That's quite refreshing how they just put their services right out there. It feels much more personable when the focus is on describing in layman's terms how surgeries are generally done. So many FFS sites out there seem to think that a gozillion image sets (before/after) are enough to put the prospective patient at ease. There are a couple of concerns I have, though. One is that most of the staff appears to be Spanish, yet the descriptions on the website appear to be written by a "westerner". I doubt the language barrier would be that small between the staff at that office and someone from the US. Or am I missing something? Are foreigners typically very fluent in English? The other concern I have is that there doesn't appear to be a lot of real-world FFS experience between the staff members. It appears that many of them have experience in the Oral and Maxillofacial arenas, but that a few of them went and paid a visit to Dr Ousterhout.

I forgot to mention in my previous reply that I see nothing on that website about the costs associated with these surgeries. I understand that they can't diagnose anyone over the Internet, or over the phone, but they could at least state in ball park figures what various costs might be. In my case I'd want to know how much a package of rhino, brow boss removal, scalp advance and orthognathic surgery would cost.

Hi Aeron,

Most European countries have English as their first language. The two Surgeons are Daniel Simon and Dr Bart van de Ven from Antwerp.

I am having a FFS Consultation on 28th July at Harley St , London. I will post further info after that. I would imagine costs would be comparable to that in the US.

Regards

Andrea

Yeap, I saw who the two surgeons were on the "staff" page. I will eagerly look for your impressions in the consultation. Question everything, and don't let the new surroundings or number of people in white coats overly impress, or overwhelm, you.

Sincerely,

Aeron

I went there. I spent all this money but unfortunately there were alot of mistakes. I saw another ffs surgeon who says it can be redone alot better.

I had a nose job and brow done.

I tried emailing them to get it done again and they drop the surgical fee but havent heard back from them. Does anyone know if they have closed?

They have stopped answering my emials?

Thanks.

Oh and to answer your question they are beginners at it, but the price is low. I think only one of them has the prroper qualification s os be careful.

      It never occurred to me to be able to see them here in the south.   Maybe tonight if it's not cloudy.

      Well, this last post brings my trans life up to date.  What happens from here is anyone's guess.  The next big milestone will be retirement, probably next year some time.  I don't think that will change things much for Sally because as I have stated previously, I am in a mostly happy place where she is concerned.    I do have a few more posts planned, as I would like to write in more detail about a few occurrences that were memorable to me.  Hopefully they will be of interest to others.    Hugs,   Sally

      Has anyone been a victim of online defemination? and what to do about it?
    • Vidanjali
      Yes, this is very therapeutic. You are able to see different aspects of your own personality. There is the part which has survived life thus far through decision making and lots of trial and error. That part of you is your wise and capable parent. When you feel strongly identified with the scared child in you, you can turn to the wise parent part of you whom you trust to guide you. You have faith and trust in that part of you necessarily because it has gotten you this far. Naturally, we all have room for improvement and advancement, but you can only start where you are and try to do your best with what you have to work with and deal with. But by adopting this attitude, you see that wise parental part of you become stronger, wiser, and more steadfast and skillful. Then the child in you increasingly becomes more trusting and carefree.

      You want to hear coincidence? I just posted that and my neighbor just texted me and said she has been up early because there were Northen Lights outside. Then 2 seconds later I get an extreme weather alert. “We are experiencing Extreme Geomagnetic conditions observed and continued severe geomagnetic storms expected to continue through the weekend”.

      No you aren't!!  There were reports from Texas, Arkansas and the Carolinas of spectacular shows last night.  This is a once-in-a-lifetime event, the best show since 1938, someone said.  Tonight is supposed to be just as good.  (OK, maybe a twice-in-a-lifetime event.  )
    • Susan R
      @KathyLauren That’s absolutely beautiful. Love those colors! That would be so nice to see some time. I’m too far South to ever see these spectacular events.   Very Nice, Susan R🌷

      Welcome @AmandaJoy, It’s a pleasure to have you join us here on the forum. It does seem much easier to suppress this understanding of ourselves until one day, it’s not. It all suddenly hits you like a ton of bricks. Those puzzle pieces all suddenly seem to fit and there’s no going back. Like you, I waited until I felt there was no other choice. It was now or never! Never having the opportunity to be myself in this world was not going to be an option.   Words of wisdom there. Many of us try to make up for lost time or try to get results faster than a cis puberty but it just doesn’t work that way as you’ve learned. It’s difficult waiting for the changes but the good news…eventually you’ll experience many of them and the joys that come with those changes are wonderful and exciting. But like most good things, they take time. And sometimes it’s helpful things don’t happen overnight. Especially if you have others that need time to adjust to your physical and emotional changes.   I wish you the best on your continuing journey wherever that may lead you. I think you’ll enjoy this forum as there are great resources, advice, and people here that make it what it is. Hope to see you around.   Warmest Regards, Susan R🌷

      I enjoyed my Saturday moka-pot coffee this morning while doing something I love: processing astronomy images.  I didn't stay up late to watch last night's spectacular aurora, but my all-sky camera did, taking pictures every minute.

      Good morning.    I did not try to see the sky last night.  We watched tv and went to bed.  Cooler but dry this weekend it was 58 when I got up this morning.  Sorry Kymmie, no chance of white rain here. Although there is always a chance of hail.  Fortunately, the storms stayed west of us and dropped their golf all size hail elsewhere.  I do feel bad for the people that got the hail as that was in a poorer part of the state.   Even the county we live in is quite large and has socioeconomic issues that range from wealth to below poverty.  Very few good middle class jobs and a number of them are closing their doors every year.  Most workers are some way connected to hospitality and travel.  We are beginning to see some internet based jobs as the latest under sea internet cables to South America and other places are coming ashore here.  But they are not connected yet.  We have a rail line but it stops at the innercoastal waterway. The bridge was damage in a hurricane and there just wasn’t enough traffic to justify Corman spending the money to fix it.  So it is permanently in the raised position.     @awkward-yet-sweet I’m glad you got to spend some downtime away from the every day at home.  I can’t imagine how a household that large operates.  And I do think you deserve an upgraded commercial kitchen.  But,  you wouldn’t all be able to live together if you spent money buying new to you things instead of fixing the old with so much talent at home.   Well, I hope to spend time creating the outline of my paper today.  I’m sure I will have to refine it a couple of times before it is completed.   enjoy your weekend    willow
