I'll add doctor info as I get further along.
My surgery was at around 1/1:30 and finished by 3:30 and slept until 7 am the next day. I had some pain but the medication is sufficient. Doctor lowered 1.25 cm which is not a lot compared to some reviews on here but the distance from my chin to nose is long so I did not want to lower it a lot.

Currently one day post-op and I'll update as much as I can.

Hey I live in Tallahassee, I really want to get scalp advancement surgery. It is saying that Jupiter is the closest surgery center that can do the work. Can you answer a few questions for me?

Sure, what questions do you have?
I also travelled from out of town and am staying a week.

Did the doctor offer the option of how far the scalp advancement could go? Are you allowed to wear a head band after surgery? I don't want to miss too much work, but don't want people to stare.

He said the average reduction people want is 2 cm but if you want more he will for sure try. I have to wear an ace wrap around my forehead for 7 days and 7 nights. Then I have to have it on for 7 nights. I have to keep the stitches covered in bacitracin ointment with the wrap over it so maybe you can keep it under a wide enough headband.

I just saw this post! I think your results are awesome, and the price you quoted that you paid is super cheap compared to the other ones that I've seen and California running around 11,000. I from Oregon but willing to fly wherever I can save a little bit of money :-) who is the doctor that you went to over in Florida?

You look great, wishing you a speedy recovery. Did the doctor talk to you about possible permanent hair loss as a side effect of this surgery? And how or what he did to minimize this side effect? I am very interested in this surgery and very scared at the same time.

He told me permanent hair loss is very rare and people can experience shock hair loss but investing in special shampoos or something is a waste of money because the hair will grow back after the shock because growth and shedding is part of the hair life cycle.

When can you wash your hair? Please update us if you have any hair loss? My surgery is Thursday

I can wash tomorrow. I will for sure update about hair loss. I asked my doctor about it and he said that it's pointless to use some special shampoo or etc after shock hair loss because it's going to grow back eventually.
