Second week at Dr Hsu:
1) Double eyelid (already have, but want to make it nicer)
2) Epicanthoplasty
3) Operate on levator muscle (not sure if she does this?)

Cuz i'm thinking that Dr Hsu seems really good at doing eyes. Or should I do everything at Dr Chuang? Decisions, decisions.

Really appreciate any help! :)
i got think the same as u before!

well i ask le, u can actually got to doc chuang straight after ur eye op with hsu. however, dr chuang would most likely suggest u to wait 6 months to 1 year before doing the other surgery with another doc..and vice versa

So Imjase, you are finally out of the dark woods and the constricting bandages and all grooss soup with kind of flavours!! hehe
Welcome back to the optimistic land!
Your outcome is already very convincingly natural yet dramatic....I like the shape of your profile top nose, the length of your profile.....it emphasizes on your masculine character!

Can you share a little bit about the chin? I'm wondering if you have any problem difficulty to close the mouth?it seems not. congrat once again!

Hm,.. from what you descriptions,.. I suggest its better to do all in Dr.C . There will be no different unless wasting time and energy. The reason is,.. Dr. C is definetely familiar with this eyebrow succus pad since I have done with him! and second, the procedures you want to do with dr.Hsu, well,.. for me myself... dr.C is the king for eyelid in Taiwan. maybe dr hsu is the queen?! Lol!
Also, I dont think Dr.Hsu want to do work 'again' after seing you with bruishes and swelling in your nose, cheeks and eyes. it bluring her to determine surgical plan cos ur original eyes already covered with full of swell.
Good luck!

Jovin, u can sing? if can, i wanna be your manager or invest in you. kekeke
Yes,it change just as give an Illusion that cheeks look smaller. Even im not get cheek shaving but right after I got my chin, it makes my face more narrow. I know it just an Illusion. it cause of the cheeks bone is supposed to have bigger size than the chin bone ( in asian faces) so when augmenting the chin, it will make the cheek looks 'smaller' . It just an illusion. but a great ones for sure! ;)

Can you recommend a maxfax in sg?

I went to dr. preecha in bangkok and he basically didn't like the look I was going for which is the sharp chiseled angular look- strong sharp jaw angles and "V" chin. So basically he si not doing. :(

Starncupid can I have your email?

sory for my late reply, been so busy these days,

Regarding with maxillofacial surgeon,... I have no idea for best surgeon in singapore.so sorry,.. cause I never interested to do this maxillofacial surgery, since I never want to have a subtle change.
May I know ,, why do like to do this procedure? If I read from your post, you like to have a more masculine and strong jaw line right? So do you already have the basic jaw bone? Cause you should know maxilofacial only create a very3x... subtle change (in all out of the goodness) . very subtle til Im afraid you can find the difference . because In maxillofacial, cut and sliding the bone just can be done max for 5mm average. more than that it almost impposible. Meanwhile , to make a male jawline and chin ( if you have a normal recessed) , 5mm add on each jaw or chin is very small. And one more, maxillo cant change your facial shape,. cant change your jaw or chin shape. You keep all your original except the projection, thats all. its really different with implant which can change the bone shape of your jaw or chin with 3 Dimension to your new favourite ones.

Let me shared bit bout my friend in spore, He already had this 2 maxillofacial 'Leefort' procedures with spore surgeon (forget the name); a sagittal split ;which is the sides of his jaws were cut and move outwards to make his jaws appear wider. And sliding genioplasty which is His chin bone was cut and moved forward to correct his recessive chin before.
but it did not work.The result of his jaw is very subtle And now He's going for the jaw implant procedure.
And the chin result? He had an asymetry chin which is from the lateral ( when you look at mirror),his chin pad moves more too right side. as you know, chin pad is suppposed vertically in line with nose.
Now my chin is really transformed from a weak chin became really strong and masculine chin. ( its medpor) My chin have a 'U' shaped. the implant had wings which is extends till prejowl area, so it can creates a perfect jaw line without make the chin looks crooked witches if you know?
and what the most I like from my chin, it looks 'boney' really similar with chin male models. Like it! ;)

I had this RZ extended (square type) chin implant 7mm ... click it.......... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.porexsurgical.com/english/su ... mandrz.asp

Also for the jaw; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.porexsurgical.com/english/su ... mandrz.asp
---This ones is designed for wrapping full of your jaw and chin bone. its called mandibular matrix . Theres also single jaw implant designed by others surgeon -separately with chin implant. You can browse it.

Oh almost forget, Yea, it was same as my experienced with dr.preecha. Got no happy at all with him. If you read the email what he sent to me long time ago, hm..you'll feel down. I almost give up at that time.
why dont you try to email yanhee as addvark said? Do you have less budget for this?
Good luck ya! 8-)

i am not sure if dr Jung do great shaving for ur cheekbone but i know that there is some doc who can do both. one example is DR kim and another is the doc which kaka posted, the doc is great in bone shaving..miniface.com.. but i remember not cheap..
of coz there is the all knowing dr chuang. lolz

however i am not the best or the most knowledgeable here but i am one with the most post!. Cupidz confirm is more knowledgeable than me in term of the technical and scientific aspect of the PS.

jovinliu wrote:first time is cutting method, this time is korean style. Now is the 6th day, i had removed stitches last night and doctor Chuang commented my swell had subsided quite fast. Yes i took Sineech, but everybody's recovery period is different and for me, luckily i am the sort who don't swell for long and i recover very fast. The crease is still quite thick now, but after some makeup it should look quite ok.

Yeah, stitching lasts shorter than cutting method. It tends to "disappear" after some years. Where did you do your stitching? Because if your eyelid is puffy/fatty, the doctor shouldn't recommend stitching to you. Stitching is suitable only for people without much fats on their eyelid. I re-did my eyes with Dr Chuang, and honestly i am very happy with the result so far, eventhough i will need another 2,3 months to assess. At least my previous cut (my first double eyelid surgery) is not visible at all, and i don't know where it went! Amazing! I did both epicantoplasty and korean style double eyelid, and.... errrr... yes, my eyes very big now, hee.. What you went to do does not sound risky; it all boils down to the skill of the surgery, and i recommend Dr Chuang. My previous eyelid surgery is ok, except too much fats was removed and my lid looks abit sulken in. Dr Chuang was very confident to do this enhancement surgery, and so far i am happy with what i see on mirror. He is a super busy surgeon, but he don't sound impatient or rude when consulting his patients.

P/S: ALOT of taiwanese girls came to him to do breast. I was doing my laser mole removal in a room, and in the room beside is a young girl, accompanied by her mother, who came in for her 1st post-op massage. Wah lao she screamed and cried! I looked down at my own ... ahem... 2 molehill... and for the first time i think i am lucky that i am a natural B cup. Yah not C or D lah, but alot of taiwanese girls are actually A cup (don't know why but they damn slim, maybe that's why the breast also became smaller), so they came to do B or C. The sound of that girl screaming and crying..... i don't have the courage to do breast implant man...

u did ur eye the second time right? so the first time did you use cutting method or stitching method? Then how long will be the recovery period for the second time. Thanks.

I kind of regret doing my stitching for my eyes. It's a permanent stitch so i think if i want to redo, it will be complicated and recovery will be even longer. Cause this is my second stitch and recovery is super long.

Does anyone have any idea of a good reconstructive surgery for the eyes. Really envious Jovin for doing the eye surgery to enlarge the eyes. I also want. I want to take out my eyes fat too, its quite puffy. Ah. But now I really need a good surgeon if I want to redo. The doctor have to take out two stitch from my eyes, fats, and enlarge my eyes carefully. Does it sound risky?

jovin,

thanks to u, i didnt know he is so good in eyelid revision too..thats y i never recommend him for eyelid revision b4.. haha i even more confident of dr chuang now..

icebell, thou i know we r at loggerhead but nevertheless i m glad that dr chuang maybe able to help in your eyelid revision which u have desperate seek out for..

I keep reading abt Dr Chuang, but how do I get information on his clinic?

Anybody, help! :shock:
