My pic has been auto-set to NSFW so hope you can see it!? (I’m supposed to be able to modify the setting but can’t seem to find where to do that....)
I changed it for you.
Thank you!😁👍
It’s a bit hard to work out the sequence here but I must say you have had an amazing journey!
My facial transition in six images was quite a challenge!😅 So, start bottom right (obviously!) and work to bottom left - that’s the 2014 surgery. Then top row, top right to top left - 2019 chin and jaw surgery.
Yep. Makes sense haha! It’s tricky, isn’t it? Many ways to put together Tatami or flow a sequence of things into a grid.
I’m thinking that if if/when I have any images to share that if it’s more than two or three, to number them in the corner.
Anyway, how was the swelling in your jaw? Your final result is just radiant! You are clearly so happy, I can see it just in your eyes alone!
Yes, all good thanks - the 2019 Kamol surgery was in June so I was well healed by late 2019.
I’m glad the change in my overall psychological state and personality shows through. The shadow, anxiety and negativity that followed me from aged 2.5 until transition just all went immediately I decided to press the button😊

😅Did you not read the caption? There are enough clues in the bracketed section plus the FFS reference.
Woww I'm suddenly interested in Kamol now. I never see such dramatic and good jaw/chin results
I had a great experience at Kamol. I was on my own and went for three weeks and stayed the whole time at the hospital. Great facilities and nice location. A lovely small shopping centre a few minutes walk away with good supermarket, Boots chemist and restaurants/coffee shop. Wish I’d stayed another week in Thailand and visited the coast but I did need the two and a half weeks post-surgery for the bruising and swelling to subside.
Holy crap, you lost a lot of your jaw! You had to feel that.
😅I don’t remember it being too bad to be honest! Certainly far less than I’d expected😊
Looking very, very good!
Thank you!😊
I just had chin and jaw done with Facial Team in 2020 before COVID. They revamped their surgery methods completely since 2018. They now use a 3D model to make plastic guides that are inserted into the jaw during surgery to guide the cuts. This means they can make a more refined jaw with less risk to nerves. They don't cut the chin and re attach they just go in and make the cuts to taper it and reduce length. The cuts to the mandible are much more aggressive than prior to 2018 when they used the old method. I am extremely happy with the result. Even without lower face lift I can see a big improvement but as they advised a face lift will show off the result better. You look amazing by the way.

Thanks Dana and am pleased you’re happy😊 That’s really interesting as I had someone in the surgery group asking me about their techniques and I said I couldn’t really comment as I know they’re always improving and was sure they’d probably moved on since 2014. Their bone work seems to have always been their speciality. Yes, they’ve always advised on waiting six months or so for facelift after jaw for optimum result. When Kamol did my jaw and chin I actually gambled and had a lower facelift at same time and they were quite aggressive so the result has been absolutely fine 18 months on - even having lost quite a bit of weight in my face this year as a result of my dieting and which I was initially a bit concerned about but it’s been fine.😊
Impressive!
Thanks😊
I'm headed to FT Spain spring of 2021. Any advice on what to expect and or prepare for?
😊I’m a bit out of touch with them now except for some occasional social exchanges but they have always sought to constantly improve and I think are still using the great HC (Highcare) hospital out near Puerto Banus. It’s a lovely, friendly team and I enjoyed the whole experience. You’ll typically be in hospital for at least one night and possibly two and have the ice mask on most of night one. The only thing I’d say is just try and be as fit and healthy as you can be between now and then as that will give your body the best chance to heal.
Firstly, congratulations that's a massive change! You look absolutely stunning! So good!
Secondly, and not directed to you, but why do some people post photos backwards (right-left instead of left-right)? It took me a bit to realise at first that the most recent photo was on the left, not the right. Well that and reading the headline again and reading "FFS". 😂 (maybe it took a little bit longer than normal cause I've just woken up too 😂)
Thanks! Lol! Sorry! I think I had an idea about the diagonals being the extreme timeline points and that’s what I just ran with! Female logic?😅
Well done, congratulations on your change!
So proud of you sis! YOU DID THAT YES YOU DID!! Like I always say if you put your mind to anything ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE 🙏🏼✊🏾💕🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thank you - and I did! FFS was always top of my list ever since I first became aware of Oosterhout in the 90s and realised what was possible😊
I did my consultation and i plan on doing it this coming year ive honestly never been so scared more scared the bttm surgery bc its my face😅😅
I remember the morning of the first op and it was a massive mix of elation and apprehension and a distinct sense of passing the point of no return - but I had absolutely no intention of returning and couldn’t leave it all behind fast enough!
He hooked a girl up!!! Looks great👍
That’s a great expression!😅👍

Hi - really sorry to hear that but I’ve heard the same comment about FT before. They didn’t actually do any lower third for me as they said I didn’t need any but I always rather regretted it afterwards and finally had it done five years later at Kamol. Yes, so, at Kamol it was jaw shave, chin, neck/lower facelift and lip lift. I have a global figure for the trip in my head and can’t quite remember the nett cost for surgery after travel and accom but I think it was in the region of GBP 11k.
Why didn't you go back to Facial Team?
It was really because I wanted to try Kamol as I liked their aesthetic and the need for a more ‘aggressive’ approach to doing the facelift at same time as jaw shave and chin rather than having to wait six months. That was a calculated gamble but which worked well, for me at least, as after 18 months and losing weight there’s been no issue with sagging etc. Facialteam did a great job on my brow ridge, forehead and opening up the eye area plus nose😊
Thanks, definitely worked.
