Dr. Toby Mayer actual review

This is a review of Dr.Toby Mayer.
I did a very short review before because I had just had a bad experience with a tca home peel, which made it difficult to concentrate; additionally I was on some heavy pain medication from a recent car accident. I’m not sure why at that time; I felt it was a good time to do this review, so this is the clear headed and legible review of my experience.
I met Dr. Mayer about 12 or 13 years ago, when I was looking for facial feminization surgeons. At that time I had met with several doctors, but Dr. Mayer stood out from the rest because of his amazing knowledge of facial symmetry. I had previously had a nose job that did not turn out the way that I had desired. I had a big bump on the side of my nose, which I wanted to have fixed in addition to the facial feminization.
From the time I made my appointment, Dr. Mayer’s staff was amazing with their patient services and professionalism as well as making me feel very comfortable and welcome. Dr. Mayer’s practice manager is so sweet and thoughtful. In being transgendered, we often encounter people that are ignorant and don’t use the proper nouns when addressing women like us.
When the big day came for my consultation, I met Dr. Mayer at his office is in Beverly Hills, CA. As soon as I walked in the door, I had to fill out all that dreaded paperwork. While I was waiting, one of his friendly staff members came and asked if I needed any refreshment.
Shortly after that, Dr. Mayer came in to meet with me. He was so warm and welcoming, and he gave me a hug. We sat down and then he started asking me questions so that he could get a better idea of what I was looking to have done. Basically, Dr. Mayer and I discussed what I needed to have done and what I wanted to have done. I, as I’m sure we all have a list of what we’d like done. Dr. Mayer told me that many of the procedures that I wanted to have done weren’t needed because I was too young at that time. I knew in my heart at moment, that Dr. Mayer was the surgeon that I had been seeking out for a very long time. My surgery appointment was booked for a few weeks out from then.
The surgery that Dr. Mayer did was of course on my nose, and also a forehead lift, brow bone shaving, tracheal shave and hair transplants to the recessions of my scalp on both sides.
Normally I would have been terrified about all of this surgery, but I was not scared or anxious in the least because I felt so comfortable with Dr. Mayer and his staff. I got there very early and his nurses prepped me all up and I went in for surgery! Everyone was so sweet while I was in the OR . They even had me laughing. Then before I knew it, I was out! LOL
I woke up in his recovery area. Dr. Mayer has two operating rooms in his office, so able to relax in recovery after my surgery. There was absolutely no rush afterwards because it was Dr. Mayer’s own surgical suite.
In the days after surgery, I felt it was a bit scary to see all of the swelling, stitches and staples. Dr. Mayer and his staff encouraged me to stop by whenever I wanted, or at the very least to call his nurse if I had any questions.
When I got home, Dr mayer called several times to follow up with me on my progress and I even received a beautiful flower arrangement from his office.
After my initial surgey, I went back for cheek implants, a few peels and another hair transplant. I live in New York now but I still go to back to Beverly Hills to get my botox and any other fillers that I might need.
Ladies, Dr Mayer‘s specialty is to achieve very natural looks. He will not over exaggerate any of your facial features. If your goal is to pass as a genetic female, do check him out!
One of the other things I wanted Dr. Mayer to do for me, was a surgery that nobody else does, which was to change the pitch of my voice. It is amazing and unlike other voice surgeries. It can even be changed back if you wanted it to, but what trans girl wants to give up their voice if it makes you sound feminine? Dr. Mayer decided that he wouldn’t do that surgery on me, because he said that my vocal pitch was great. I had always felt self-conscious about my voice, but when he told me that, I think it helped me to not be as self-conscious about it anymore.
If any of you have any questions feel free to ask away!
