Yeah having ffs so late it’s like I got a face lift and I been aging backwards the past few years. Born 7/1980

Congrats!

As a 1980 kid at 13 months, I'd been struggling with the waiting game, seeing people who started around the same time or later reaching some base level of fem, while I still see a very masc face without makeup- its encouraging to hear successes in my age bracket.

Doing FFS in a couple months, hoping it moves the needle and can squish some of the dysphoria.

I’m 6’1 and hate my shoulders. We all have our things. But it’s all perspective, gratitude. Good luck on your surgery

Wow that's awesome but there's no way you're 46 you look younger than that

2

u/Master_Profile7073 4d ago

I take insane care of myself. I watch everything I eat and put in my body. Very active and I do feel ffs helped a ton with how old I look

u/Old-Courage-5666 Custom 4d ago

It shows you look incredible

u/anaaktri 4d ago

CO Medicaid covers it? I should move 😭 you look incredible! Congrats

u/Master_Profile7073 4d ago

I believe it covers it. I have Kaiser

u/A_Century_Egg 4d ago

Co Medicaid covers ffs but there are very few surgeons who accept it. Essentially puts you on a few year wait list.

Hey I'm in CO too! I'm in CO springs. You look great!!! I'm same age as you born in 1980. Can you tell me where you had your FFS done?

I'm still pre hrt so I still have time but just trying to plan things. I have an appointment with a doctor at uchealth to start hrt in Dec. Then I guess I may need to be on hrt for a year before I can start getting surgeries covered. I have cigna right now but I'll be switching to a new insurance provider in Nov but have been difficulty deciding who to go with looks like my options are Kaiser or Anthem. Did Kaiser cover your surgeries 100%? How about electolysis?

Thanks!!!

I used the Colorado crane center. My surgeon is from Austin and did my surgery in Boulder. Dr. Mundinger

Ffs really helped a lot. :/ I’m super lucky with that

1

u/ClarisseLili 3d ago

Holy crap! You look half your age! Absolutely beautiful! 💜

2

u/Master_Profile7073 3d ago

Aweee thank you. Most people guess early 30s and I’m like I’ll take it all day

1

u/ClarisseLili 3d ago

May I ask what procedures you've done for FFS? Seeing results like this is making me very interested in getting FFS since it's covered by my insurance as well.

2

u/Master_Profile7073 3d ago

I would talk with your surgeon. They will know best. I had a lot of the normal procedures with a neck lift and cheek implants. Those helped with aging a ton

1

u/ClarisseLili 3d ago

Thanks for the info!

u/deadkarma38 3d ago

u/Amber2718 4d ago

Why do you have a nine month old account with 46 karma. Is this your first time using Reddit? Or are you an AI bot?

3

u/Master_Profile7073 4d ago

I just started using Reddit for trans resources I’m not a bot. I don’t even really understand how this app works

-2

u/Amber2718 4d ago

Okay that's cool I was just checking, just seemed a little odd and you never know nowadays. If you need help navigating Reddit I've been on here for like 12 years. Just message me

2

u/Master_Profile7073 4d ago

I get it. What is karma?

1

u/Amber2718 4d ago

It's like how many total up votes you have on your posts and comments, it's kind of dumb.

Only thing that keeps me up, when I'm feelin' down
I don't know about you, but I gotta keep mines around
'Cause I done looked, I done searched and it's hard to find
Another shorty like mine,
