sorry, haven;t known anyone who has done face lift yet. I was reading an article on it and more concerning is where the incisions will be done and whether it will be visible if there any leftover scarswalkthewalk wrote:Hi Aadvark & boii 18.
Do you know of anyone who has had cheek lift or mid face lift in Dr pats or Dr Naras. As i am 44 yrs of age and unfortunatly gravity and muscle laxity has caught up with me a little in the cheek region.

i have emailed dr put and he seem quite hasty in reply
so i may be considering nara instead..
does dr put have a website?
regd tokai and nara facelift no i havent heard of anyone here undergoing it
it sounds u want a mid-face lift.
44 is a young age to start face-lift and may not give u max results

i arrived at tokai clinic at 12 noon. promptly, saw dr pat.
he then remove my nose.. i was so nervous.. he took the cast out gently and then voila can tell that he was quite satisifed with my nose.. he ask.. have you seen your nose.. i say no... then he take mirror for me to see... and its very nice!! very sharp n defined compared to the past and it match my face many many times nicer. the bridge also higher quite obvious from side view. front view big difference too cos tip is elevated.
i then look at full-length mirror, also very nice, very sharp and much better than before..
doc says i have little swelling. but he agree with me 80 percent of the swelling will be gone in 6 weeks. as i have done tipplasty, my tip is slightly bulbous now ( swollen ) but still overall my nose is much nicer than before. totally unexpected. i expected some scary shit to be staring straight back at me. what i see is a very "smart" nose as dr pat describe to me *laughs*
ahh.. luckily i have a beautiful beautiful nose finally... then dr. brief me about the post-op care and i asked some questions.. he say 10 days or more , then remove cast is the best. everyday have to remove cast to clean wound 2 times daily however. he say that stich can be removed at 10 days or more, the longer the stitch n cast are on, the better.
i thank the doc and am very pleased.. he also very pleased haha.. very good.. he told me will give me one more antibiotic shot just in case, ask me when i going back singapore, and he prepare a letter for the singapore doc to let them know i did rhinoplasty.
i am so happy!
oh, then i was left to the nurses who showed me personally how to clean the wounds. the nurse very friendly, and i kinda could feel they genuinely care and concerned about me. i told the nurse i was very very happy and i also chatted about other stuff.. she say alot of singaporean go tokai clinic ! wakakaka. anyway, i say no pain. very good very good nose, and say that the nurses and Dr very good. then she say... i no pain, but she pain.. ( i guess cos she operated too, and the blood etc is quite scary sight ).. i was then given antibiotic shot by the nurse ( doctor has gone for lunch )
anyway i will definitely drop by the clinic again in e future, if not for plastic surgery is just to say hi to the nurse and doctors. haha.
the left me a very very nice nose, very thankful.
i was offered to write a testimonial and i wrote 2 full pages. haha.
i am very happy with my new nose. the 2 friends ( not doing P.s) who come with me also say sharper now and nicer.
i will show after pictures once i have arrived back in singapore. however, do note that front view is usually not obvious, esp with the post-op swelling in my case. however, i can tell in real life, its VERY distinct. i was VERY shocked. i expected some mediocre result , you know, slight improvement. what i saw was.... in my eyes, perfect.

It's have been a month since I went to Hatyai for my nose job.
I love my new nose, and would like to share with you'll...
I suggest before the surgery, go consult both doctor (DR NARA & DR PUTTISAK)... (And you will understand what I mean)
Consultation is FOC in Hatyai... so don't worry about the additional cost.
I planned to do my nose with DR NARA (but I listen to Daybreakk and I am glad that I did), After the consultation I went back to DR PUTTISAK for Surgery. I felt more confident with DR PUTTISAK, he really make the effort to explain to you the whole procedures, details, and he seem to be a very careful and gentle person.
He even show me his patient before and after photo. After that I went to consult DR NARA, he like very yaya... Ask him question, he give me that one kind attitude... like take it or leave it... I'm a busy man... Ask him if he have any patient photo to show, he said everyone have different nose and it's not the same. I do not want to be the same with others, what I want to know is the after result... It's the after result that matter... I also don't want to have the same nose as others.
And the best part, he said his implant is one of the kind in the whole world... No one use that brand, it's from USA. But guess what, when we are at DR PUTTISAK's clinic, that's the same implant he is using... same brand, same color, same from USA.
DR PUTTISAK S Implant give a more natural look, I had my old implant done in SIngapore and it's a L Implant... It's almost the same as L Implant, but it's more curvier that it's look more natural...
Now I got my height and my tip right... I love it, and this is the cheapest and best PS I have done...
I'm so happy... thanks to Daybreakk and all those whom have contributed here.

Thank you for replying back.
I have booked my accommodation & coach via Grassland and it was roughly the price that you have given (SGD343.5 for 7 nights & round-way coach).
So I guess i'm on my way to Hatyai in Feb for my otoplasty~
