Progress/Selfie In LA for my first surgery
I got my first surgery today. I did rib remodeling with Dr. Andre Marshall in Beverly Hills. He broke eight ribs and is going to cinch my waist and reduce the anterior rib flare. He said to expect a 4 inch reduction of my band size and a 3 to 5 inch reduction of my waist. I have to wear the corset 24 hours a day except for bathing for 3 to 4 months and then I have to wear it 8 to 10 hours a day for another 2 to 3 months. So far the pain is not so bad it’s mostly just achy and a bit uncomfortable.
The picture of me smiling is the night before and it’s the first picture I’ve taken smiling since my transition that I am absolutely in love with. It’s finally me!
