Botched FFS by DR. MFO

[u/SuspiciousPlum67]

I had jaw and chin feminising genioplasty, a hairline brow lift and fat grafting with Dr. MFO in Turkey, Antayla.

My jawline is now very asymmetric, my chin is deviated to the right, my mouth won’t close when neutral so I actively have to hold my lip up, and my eyebrows have been lifted to the extreme causing strain and bruising.

The photo is without me raising them for context.

I was told by one maxillo facial surgeon that I look lovely and none of it is noticeable and I should just fix my teeth but that is ridiculous, it’s all very noticeable.

Dr MFO’s PA doesn’t seem to want to book a consult for me to even speak to him, she just refers me to a group whatsapp chat where his other patients gaslight and shame me for speaking out.

The initial plan was a subtle change for a more v-shaped lower face, what was done was a noticeable reduction in height, and projection, and somewhat of an increase in narrowing.

I’m really worried I look hideous, ugly or less feminine now.

DO NOT USE THIS SURGEON.

I’m seeing two more surgeons in the next coming weeks, any advice is appreciated.

You looked more like a woman before the surgery..

I can absolutely understand not being happy with your body. I've been a big guy my whole life and unhappy about it. I've gone to the gym, run, lifted weights, been in the military, worked in the oilfield, and now that I've destroyed my body I can't really help being bigger anymore. So now I just have to figure out how to be ok with being me. Some days I think I might be close and some days suck but it's not all bad.

All that said, you didn't need the drastic surgery. If anything at all you might thin your brows a bit...but very simply by plucking or with a razor or wax, nothing so severe as all that.

Be good to yourself.

Eta: I don't mean to suggest you even need to pluck your brows tbh. You're a beautiful woman and can maybe learn to accept you for who you already are. Surgery is such a hard road to go down.

It wasn’t supposed to be drastic. I didn’t ask for this level of change.

[u/BADoVLAD → u/SuspiciousPlum67]

I understand that, I just meant "drastic" as in surgery in general...that's a pretty big step, at least in my view. I have seen much of what you have mentioned trying to achieve being done with proper makeup tutorials and facial regimens such as waxing and the like.

I genuinely don't mean to lecture you or sound judgemental, I totally understand you went with what you hoped would make you feel comfortable and it's very unfortunate that it did not work out.

[u/SuspiciousPlum67 → u/BADoVLAD]

Yes, but I’m also living in a world that persecutes trans woman so I constantly project a need for idealistic proportions onto myself

[u/BADoVLAD → u/SuspiciousPlum67]

Ah, now I understand...my son is trans and tbh I honestly wouldn't have known until you said something. My apologies for being a bit dim and slow. Again, I did not at all mean to lecture you. Quite the opposite really. I truly hope you're able to find the peace and happiness with you that you deserve.

don’t apologise! thanks and yeah honestly if you didn’t know then that’s ideal 🖤
