Hi boii18,boii18 wrote:I had a lump when I did with dr pat the first time. Thank god it was just cartilage. its gone now. mine is not as bad as yours, yours seem awful.
its either silicone extrusion or as u said granuloma. a bad autoimmune response at the site of silicone implant or simply, infection.
suggest u simply fly to & consult ur plastic surgeon, he shd remove it for u for free, and reinsert at a later date if this is the problem. it is only right he does that. who is ur surgeon? esp after the cost u incurred seeing a local ENT also
Hi! I am so sorry to hear abt your plight - hope you are dealing with this well & taking meds to counter this infection going on.clandich wrote:Hi,
Thank you very much for your replies. In my computation, its been a month already since I discovered this granuloma. Then I have to wait for another 1 month for it to be removed. Sigh*
For those who had taken their inserts, how many days did you have the swelling? Will the bridge go low again right after the insert removal?

I wanted to do laser for double eyelid and liposuction.
I've considered Dr. Colin Song (SGH), Dr. Seah (paragon medical centre), as well as http://www.daikanyama-clinic.jp/english.htm.
Anyone have had surgeries done by them? Anyone else to recommend? I'm not sure to do it in SG or go to Korea/Japan for the surgery. I don't have much confidence about the other countries in Asia and going to Europe for surgery would be too expensive for me.
And since this is my first time, can I ask how you go about bombarding them with questions?; and what type of questions do you normally ask (besides the post-effects, procedures, etc.)?
And I would also liked some advices since it'll be the first time I'm going under a knife .
Please email me @ [email protected].
Thanks in advance!

I'm new here and after listening to what you have gone through esp. flying mice I am in awe of your courage to go under the knife. Not only that, I am also inspired to get double-eye lids too.
Can everyone share who is a good doctor as I am still a student and want to use my hard-earned savings properly. Please give me your advice. My ears are open.
I read that dr. Su is one of the best eyelid surgeon in Taiwan. I did a consultation w her, and she really took the time to describe the eye anatomy, examine your eyes, measuring each eye and the width between both eyes. She checked my vaccination mark on my upper arm to see if I'm keloid prone. She also asked whether I was using eyelid glue etc. And her price is reasonable.
But she didn't do my surgery. I went to dr. Chuang instead.
Flyingmice cheer up:)FlyingMice wrote:Thanks for the feedback.. I will listen your advice and wait for another 6 months to see how it goes..

Dr Wong did'nt find anything wrong with my eyes. He said that its common to have scar and it's due to my own healing problem, nothing to do with his skill. He quoted me a full fee for secondary revision. I did requested for steriod shots and had 2 session. It was very painful, my eyelid bleed and i cry after the injection. I ask for LA shot before getting steriod but Dr wong refuse. He find it pointless since both require injection. But if it's not painful, would i request for LA? I did research and read from website that LA is normally given before steriod shot.
Dr Wong told me that a secondary revision don't ganrantee that my eyes will be better, It might turn out to be worse.. It's obvious that he do not want to take responsibility of his botch job. I ever thought of asking for a refund since the result turn out to be a failure and he told me that the scar will not be noticeable after 6 months which is not truth. Come to think of it, I'm really angry. Sorry that I keep complaining about my problem here.
Hello flyingmice:)aneles wrote:flyingmice -
I have met 2 ladies that have done their double eyelids with dr wong & trust me - both complained that after 1 year, their crease was still too high & one of them still felt the 'tightness' in her eyes.
However, after many years (one of them 6+ years, another one 10+ years) & both their eyelids are looking great now! the crease has gone down quite abit & looking much more natural + the crease is still deep!
I have heard from a few others that Dr Wong is reputed to give high creases to his patients & thru the years, the crease goes down & looks more natural.
Whereas for me, unfortunately i didnt know better then & i chose another doctor in singapore for double eyelids, & even though my eyelid swelling subsided in 3 months, it also meant my eyelids drooped/crease
disappeared after 1 year.
So in conclusion, have trust in the doc you chosen. he is very well-known for his double eyelids. I am very sure your double eyelids will get better thru time.
HTH!
