LGBTQ People of Color: Postoperative Challenges

Workshop Description

Surgery is foreign and frightening to most individuals but for trans people, surgery is often essential to achieving the gender identity. While most people have similar concerns, some of the more challenging issues are unique to People of Color (POC) such as increased scarring and varying degrees of scar and skin coloring after surgery. This lecture is not just for POC because in order to understand the after surgery journey, we need to understand the unique needs of all patients undergoing surgery. Once you’ve decided to have surgery, it is critical to understand what lies ahead so there are NO SURPRISES. While there are many different procedures that are common in the trans community this workshop will emphasize what you need to do to get ready for any procedure. We will address how to care for yourself after surgery to ensure a successful outcome. Knowing the essential details help your journey with NO SURPRISES!
