hi, yup i did epi and double eyelid with dr nara back in sept.sasa05_ wrote:Anyone did their eyes with Dr Nara?
Does he give us a cream to apply on the stitches after the op or do we need to bring our own anti-inflammatory cream?
Another thing is I read cold compress eye pads helps to reduce the swolleness of the eyes.
The pads will need to be placed inside the fridge a few hours before using.
now this question comes to me, if we take out the cold compress pack from the fridge and apply to our eyes, the pack will have condesation which will make our eyes wet?
We're not supposed to let the stitches get wet right?
Can anyone please advise?
Thanks

I'm now 5weeks post op of lipo. Basically ALL bruises has gone already. Not as swollen. But I guess that is not swollen anymore?
My arms compression garment can't be worn anymore. I stop wearing them 2 and 1/2 weeks post op because my arms reduced alot thus, the garment became loose for me. I was adviced to get L size for arms garment but I insist taking M size. I should get S size.
Thigh n tummy garment( 1 piece), stop wearing them 3weeks post op. Same thing, I should get smaller size! I think garment should get thighter than your normal size for best compression. Wearing just nice doesnt help much.
The treated area has lots of lumps, big and small. Don't know when will go away?I guess after the lumps go away my treated area would go down more?? Not very sure can anyone advice me on this?
For my arms, there's no more lumps already, but still feeling numb, heard that the numbness will go away a few more months later..
well, my arms had quite a hard time for me. Why? becos when i meet up with my frens, they tend to hit my arms and say "hey~!" something like that. and i have to act as normal but actually its fking pain!! LOL!
My brother who used to grab my flabby arms becos he said he had never touch such flabby arms like me, like tofu, continues to GRAB my arms!!! DAMN!
Its really painful when ppl hit, touch, grab etc.. but now, i guess its fine already.
Once, my friend accidentally push my arm, very light only but my reaction was like OUCH! and they look at me stunned. hai. but i also canot tell them i went lipo ma. So have to tolerate lo. Just something funny to share for doing arm lipo.
As for the rest, tummy lumps is the worst. How to treat them? Massage? what kind of massage?
By the way, for my arms, Dr nara didn't touch on the part near armpit. So i emailed them and they ask me to send them the picture of my arms. just sent them and see what they say. duno if they will redo my arms for free?
I'm going back to do the rest of my thigh and calves, they allow me to do my calves. Ning squeezed my calves and say i have enough fats to do so. SO HAPPY!
Ok, but I not sure when going back to do. not much leave. This time i guess i will stay in Indra hotel? Leegarden plaza, lobby floor is damn smelly, to me and my bf.
Transport wise, gonna take tiger when they resume the flight directly to hatyai!!
I also planning to do my arms with Dr Nara and my main prob is the armpit fats, means he did not help u remove the armpit fats?
Does ur arm bruised really badly? Have to wear longsleeve and cardigan all the time?
I also do not wish to let people around me know that i went for arm lipo, and they love to touch me too!!!!
I wore the compression garments al the time and when gg out, i will wear cardigans always to cover the garment area. =) at times wil get very hot if the weather is hot!!! or i walk to much n sweat.
but no choice, ai swee is like that. must suffer awhile to gain the beauty u want..
Hi CNB, thanks for your reply.CNB wrote:hi, yup i did epi and double eyelid with dr nara back in sept.
IIRC, he gave me 2 bottle of distilled water (correct me if im wrong) to clean the wound for my eyes and nose. Antibiotic and painkillers and a pack of cotton bud. So u might want to bring ur own anti-inflammatory cream, but probably seek his opinion.
Just a note, Dr nara method of epicanthoplasty will result in scarring unlike the korean ps method. Im still hoping it will heal as time goes by as im post-op 1mth+ atm. Anyone else that did epicanthoplasty with dr Nara can advise?
To answer ur next qns, alternate hot and cold compress will be more beneficial in reducing the swelling. What u can do is to place a clean cloth over ur eyes b4 applying the cold compress ontop of it.
hi CNB, im thinking of doing epi oso. how is the scarring like? will it eventually heal n be gone? do u mind pm me ur pic?CNB wrote:hi, yup i did epi and double eyelid with dr nara back in sept.sasa05_ wrote:Anyone did their eyes with Dr Nara?

Hi Angelfern, thanks for your notes.angelfern wrote:Hi sasa05,
It should be saline solution for the eyes, not distilled water. My sis's going to Dr Jong in Taipei for her levator & double eyelid so I translated the after care for her.
1) First day after op, for 6 hrs, try to open your eyes, look up, no cold compress, try to sit up. take painkiller every 4 to 6 hrs, apply ointment twice a day, morning, nite.
2) 2/3 days cold compress to remove swell, pain.
3) after 3rd day, hot compress for blood circulation, reduce bruises.
The Cold/hot compress is for 30 min, rest 30 min interval.
4) Keep dry, after remove stitches then put makeup, touch water.
5) eye area bruises will be gone in 1 to 2 weeks time.
6) 3 days later, if ok, can wear contact lens.
Oh, no no... I'm grateful for all advices and tips given and shared by all.angelfern wrote:Hi sasa05,
ha ha, very sorry, translated directly from the chinese text. typed too quickly.
If Nara doesn't provide ointment, maybe try buying from GP or pharmacy?
just be thick skin & say u'll need it for eyelid surgery.
1) The saline solution is for cleaning the eyes, in that case, it will be wet, how to maintain dry area? maybe u've to check with nara.
2) Dr Jong's advice is first day of op don't apply cold compress, apply cold compress on 2nd and 3rd day for 30 min, rest 30min interval. After 3rd day, apply hot compress, same duration.
Definitely not apply both cold & hot compress together.
3) i'm not sure nara will remove stitches on which day. 5th day? U've to check with him.
Bruises should clear in a week, especially if u take sineech but as the eyes are very sensitive, it's the swelling that u've to be careful. people can tell there's a difference. Buy a black rim spectacle, start wearing it in the office now, let your colleagues get used to it, hopefully can camouflage a bit.
Be prepared u'll encounter kay poh aunties who'll ask u in your face " You did your eyes ah?"
when I 1st decided to go for PS, there were many worries, fears, uncerrtainities etc.angelfern wrote:yeah, that's the spirit.
When I did mine last time, I was very shy & try to avoid looking at people directly. so they will purposely tease me. The attitude should be forthright then they got nothing to smirk about. When u deny or come up with excuses, they'll continue to haunt u.
Look at felicia & tian niu. When xiao S asked tian niu what she had done, she replied "from top to toe", ha ha, that shut the host up.
