Flew from Europe to Dr. Epstein to Miami in a world-wind 4 day experience. Got about 2700 grafts and I am now trying to adhere to the post op protocols as much as I can, which is made more complicated with all the travelling. Everyone in the office has told me that the work is beautiful, and at his point, I have no reason to believe otherwise. Dr. Epstein's staff treated me very well and as I suspected from his videos, Dr. Epstein is a top notch doctor and person. The surgery actually was kinda fun and we had a lot of laughs in the room. It took 8 hours. The scars are buried very well and now I am simply left to wait. I just want to turn up the clock to Christmas already, but have not figured out a way to do that. The pain was bad, but not unbearable the first night, but now being only 48 hours removed from the procedure, I feel pretty good.
I'll take any words of encouragement that I can get from anyone out there who is a FUT veteran -- thanks for reading. I hope Dr. E posts my before and afters someday, as this would be an indication that everything went well...we'll see in 6 months!!!
