I Live Proudly in a Body of my Own Design
I am nonbinary and I went to see Dr Carmona for facial feminization surgery. I had a V-line surgery, tracheal shave, cheek augmentation with fat transfer and forehead bone remodeling. My first contact was Danny, she was very helpful coordinating everything and putting my mind at ease since I have to admit that I was pretty nervous getting surgery done in Mexico. Arturo picked me up from the airport and after getting a couple of tests done, he took me to see Dr Carmona. Dr Carmona really took his time to explain all the details to me and he answered all my questions. He was very straight forward but polite. Leaving the office that day, I felt that I was in very good hands. Not saying that I wasn't nervous anymore but I really got excited too. The day of surgery, I was picked up by Arturo again and he helped me with the check in at the clinic and stayed with me until a nurse asked me to come with her to get prepped for surgery. I talked to the anesthesiologist, very nice lady, and to Dr Carmona again. When I woke up, I felt tired and disoriented but I didn't really felt much pain. The next couple of days were a little rough, I had some pain and discomfort but I guess that's normal after getting so much work done. I flew home 10 days after my surgery. Danny was and is still available for doubts and questions...following up with me, making sure my recovery process is normal. I am 5 weeks post op now and I really love my results. He exceeded my expectations. I am so happy, I can't believe that all that actually happened. I can't thank Dr Carmona and his team enough. He is a really talented surgeon and I have and will highly recommend him any time. Some people are not very open minded and I was treated with disrespect and weird looks lots of times...some people try to be nice but you can tell that in their head they think differently. Arturo, Danny and Dr Carmona treated me as any other patient or human being, I didn't feel judged or anything like that at any time. I just wanted to point that out because I know that this is not necessarily a given everywhere I go.
