My facial feminization horror story.
So I know I’ve posted some info about this in the past but I’ve never posted actual pictures and details of what happened to me. Other than all me reviews are being deleted. And every time I try to share my story somewhere it’s being shut.
Dr. Bensimon has all those wonderful ratings but I keep hearing bad stories about him. I could share in the link with pics I am providing texts I received of people complaining about his work but it is not my place. Instead I’ll just share my story hoping that it will prevent some of you from making the mistake I did of going to see him.
My transition was going extremely well up to that surgery. This is to highlight how devastating it can be when a surgeon doesn’t take the time to actually do good work and put the effort and time that needs to be put in, in order to give the best result possible. Not only for looks but also for the safety and the life that goes beyond the 1 year after the surgery. We do have life’s to live after.
I wish I could post side to side pictures like so many of you do. My problem is that those side by side are actually distorted to amplify certain aspect of my face pre surgery versus post. This is part of the reason why the board of doctors have found enough elements to launch an investigation against him for my case. You can find part of the letter in the imgur link.
I won’t go on about the investigation against him other than there is enough elements that should raised warning to all of you enough to simply never consider going to see him.
I now have multiple issues following his 3 hours 7 min FFS on me. Which some cannot be fixed and some that can be fixed will leave marks. On top of that, features that I would have liked to have,like eyebrows raised that I actually paid for. That I will never be able to get now because he removed to much eyelid skin.
The surgery was supposed to be a minimum of 5 hours. After 3 hours 7min he was done. He push back my hairline. Didn’t raised my eyebrows. Didn’t fix my nose. Put my chin back in the wrong place, did an horrible job on my foreheads so not even sure he did any orbital bone contouring. I had staples left at the back of my head that my personal doctor had to remove because they had forgotten to remove it. ( small details I know but it shows that they wanted me to get out of the operating room right away).
They call the next patient during my surgery so that she hurry to the medical Center so that Bensimon could start right away. ( you know he wanted to finish early). She is the one that told me that mine went super fast because she had to rush to the Center.
Stitches were poorly done inside my mouth. And a hole was left. Which obviously turned into an infection. Etc etc etc. It just keeps going.
My eyelids were poorly done and I told him that if he would raised my eyebrows like he was supposed to. I didn’t need another eyelid surgery. He didn’t want too. Told me everything was fine. Made me feel like I was pretty much crazy. But did offer to redo the eyelid because he thought they needed correction. That was my second mistake I trusted him again. He removed too much skin and now I’m F forever.
After that when I told him I wasn’t happy about the whole thing and it was mistake that I went to see him. He told me I had a big head and that he didn’t like to work on big head. Maybe he should have told me that before destroying my face. He proceeded in telling me because he saw that it hurt me and probably because it was not professional at all. That some woman have big head and said his wife has a big head. I did not find that comforting at all and it simply confirmed the type of character he is.
Turns out, I found recently out that he shouldn’t even had shaved my skull because of the size of the sinus which he had the scan well in advance.
Ive commented on some post of girls who had bad experiences. People who haven’t been thru this type of thing cannot experience how it feels.
And I know some of you will probably try to make sell pitch about Bensimon in the comments so please refrain.... go destroy the life of girls somewhere else.
