I've paid my deposit for FacialTeam, scheduled my flight and Airbnb, and I'm really nervous. I think I picked the right people for my FFS, but I'm really antsy, mostly because I only get one shot at this.

Based on my own experience I would say you're in the safest hands possible. You'll be assigned a patient co-ordinator when you get there. I found everything ran like clockwork the majority of the time as they were so well organised. Everyone was really nice and the aftercare post surgery was excellent. It all made me wonder what I was worried about.

I went by myself and in hindsight I wished I brought someone with me. Recovery was so boring so take things to keep yourself occupied when you're not resting. The time of year I went it was quite warm so stock up on water and it was really sunny so sun lotion is essential if you plan on going out during the day.

Thanks, this is much appreciated. I'll definitely take your advice about the sunscreen.

Do you think you could have got a better result from a different surgeon?

I'm considering going with them; I'm curious how much the AirBnB is running you?

i think it was around $900 total - not sure exactly because I'm splitting it with someone else, my share is ~$500. It's a really nice place too. For the two weeks I'll be there, it's less than $40 a day.

They had a contract with an incredible resort hotel when I was there August 2017. Pricey, perhaps, but the on-site nurse was literally across the corridor from my room

I've not yet been told about this. I was under the impression I'd have to arrange all that myself. I read all the stuff they sent me, no mention of it yet.

I'll send them an email now.

So I got a reply (the reply was really quick, I just forgot to tell you in case you were still curious) and the hotels they sent me are both more expensive. They've told me the AirBnB method is common and works fine.

Hi again. I've been in contact with FT (booked) and they told me that nurses wont visit if I stay at anywhere else than the two hotels they offer. I need to ask what does the nurse do other than wash my hair.

Hmm.... maybe it would be smart to book a couple days in a hotel where a nurse will visit?

Thanks for getting back to me, by the way. Much appreciate the communication.
