Plastic surgery in Thailand (Bangkok / Hatyai)

[littlegreenyoda]

btw, anyone knows where can i remove stitches in singapore? possible for me to remove it myself?

and when can i remove the stitches?

any gp will do my dear. u'll need proper antiseptic n cleaning before/after removal. doc might give u antibiotic cream to apply.

oh. ok. I always thought i can just use alcohol and scissors and remove them myself.

but so embarrassing to go to GP and tell him to help remove the stitches. you all wont feel weird??

littlegreenyoda,

Try not to do it urself. Go to a GP. Cost $$, but better to be safe.

I'll go to the one that Greenies mention to me.

Hi littlegreenyoda,

I went to polyclinic to remove stitches sustained from a cut, so i asked about removing lipo stitches, they'll do it. The staff nurse told me to ask doc to write a letter informing them when to remove.

But doc was trying to discourage me from having lipo, "saying don't need lah, just exercise will do etc"

Polyclinic charged me $6. I've checked with my GP, it's $25 & above depending on how many areas to remove.

Have you started to look out for a nice jacket or cardigan to cover your arms?

so do i need to get dr nara to write a letter or smth like that?

when can i remove the stitches?

i got lots of cardigans! just hope that it will be rainy in Singapore or else i will look so so weird wearing so much in such hot weather!

U can also use a nice shawl so won't look weird, the incisions are at the elbow, can apply concealer so hopefully no one can spot them when u move your arms.

Normally remove stitches on the 7th day. Maybe the rest can tell you more if other polyclinics requires a letter.

As my stitching is done my CGH A&E, so they gave me a letter to remove the stitches on a specific date, then when I went to the polyclinic on that day, they were about to close for lunch so they only allow patients with letter or appointment to enter.

I didn't wait for too long as they have a separate room with a doctor & nurses for dressing, removing stitches etc.

Hehe.. i scare when smile big big the nose look big as well.. cos still think my nose is big leh.
Recently i feel tightness and sometimes i see my nose like gt bit of redness, wondering do you have this feeling as well?

pm-ed u.

greenies did u do rino n alar with dr nara?
do u mind to email me before n after pictures?

[angelfern]

Not sure, maybe the rest who've been to Nara's arm lipo can answer your question about bruising.

My sis just went to taipei for her eyes, she took arnica montana pills 5 days pre op, took 3 times a day (this we learnt it from arthur's instruction for lipo), then prepare 2 packets of Sinnech. By day 5, her bruises on her eyes disappeared, totally cleared.

Just the double eyelid line is still swell, a bit high but no colours so she just wear her normal specs or contact lens, no need to wear tinted glasses.

Ya. Cos the instructions from the pills (same pills that Dr Arthur asked us to buy from Singapore Shopping Centre) tells us a different thing. It mentions:
1st take 2 pills. Subsequently 1 pill every 2-4 hours. Max 10 days.

Can you please confirm what u mention above.

[angelfern]

Hi gals,
Sis didn't follow the instructions exactly. She took 3 arnica montana pills 3 times a day 5 days pre op, then finished the 2 packs of sinneech, after that, consume the arnica montana pills another one or 2 days, as there are no more bruising after the 5th day, she stopped already.

another thing, she spotted some tiny red spots on neck after she took the arnica montana pills but i believe it's the anica montana in her system before the op plus sineech so she recovered amazingly fast for a levator & double eyelid surgery.

hi boii18,
ya, we're suppose to meet up in taipei, wanted to show u my sis's eyes etc & compare notes but couldn't meet up later too as we had food poisoning on wed 23 dec, then vomit & LS all the way till we fly back on christmas day, seen their TW doc, sis puked 15 to 20 times on wed, threw up all the meds including sineech too, also very drama.

sorry to read about your experience, now it's still swelling so give it some time. I'll post my sis's experience in TW thread later. see u there.

Erm, hence what kind of stuff that he going to insert it and what alarplasty is all about? It would be appreciate if someone can share their Rhinoplasty experience with dr nara to me!..THANK YOU =D
