Hair progress

Still growing and looking better all the time! Like my
new hairstyle?
June
Hormones having an effect on face, bust and waist
In the last six months, I have lost one pound but gained
two inches in my breasts, one inch on my hips and lost an inch in the waist,
staying basically, the same weight!

Mid-face feminization surgeries August 18th.
Facial feminization:
“Tweaking” around eyes (lids=Biepharoplasty) and
lips (outer, a lift), nose (four or five items) smoothed and narrowed on top and bottom,
bottom angle changed (?), overall made smaller (nasal septal reconstruction), and cheek implants
(maylar implants).

Great news!: I went in to renew my license
plates, getting a "JENELLE" vanity plate in the process and got a new
license with an "F" in place of the "M"! I am now female! I have been
carrying car insurance, which is cheaper for the past year as a female.

My favorite photos since the surgeries began. They show more of what I look like than any
others to date though still swollen around the mid-section from lipo surgery.
Compression garment still worn 24/7 and the strap is visible here.

Black on black
in black hose with and without black jacket. Have lost weight and 3 inches (in 11 days) from the lipo swelling going down!
While
at the dentist December 13th, I asked if maybe I had a cavity or some gum
problem on the left side of my mouth due to discomfort in the area. The dentist
took a look and discovered that he could SEE my right cheek implant! It
was way down and exposed because the sutures didn't hold the muscle.
The pain on the left was just from the surgery on my gum to get the left cheek
implant in place. Suggesting I call my surgeon right away, I stopped in to see the doctor who
agreed I needed immediate attention. Having surgery 12/15, re-working that
right side to fix the problem, taking out the implant, sterilizing it and then
r-inserting, suturing up once again, this time with just local anesthesia. The
other problem I have had is a shooting pain up my left side from the lipo.
The toothy smiles still look dorky but can actually make
the effort now, unencumbered by tightness, soreness or anything. The surgeries, despite a
few setbacks, have been
worth it.
