Plastic surgery in Thailand (Bangkok / Hatyai)

[newbie2012]

[I see.. I heard dr Nara is quite booked. Have you tried contacting other doctors?

Hmm.... I tried yanhee/bumrungrad/dr chirayut but no response from them yet. As some of them have pointed out, it may take a week for dr chi to reply but i only can do in oct bearing in mind the swelling/bruising which i cant apply concealer

I'm thinking of going to Bangkok for refinement rhinoplasty this year dec. but I'm very confused about whom I should approach. I Hv consulted dr montien and dr poomee from bumrungrand. And dr somyos from yoskarn. Please let me know of ur experiences with any of them.

[venomgoddess]

I'm more or less decided on going to bumrungrand hospital for rhinoplasty. 3While its not as costly as prof somyos, it's still ex compared to other drs:( but I like the security of doing it in the hospital as opposed to a clinic. dr poomee comes highly recommended. He is American board certified with 20 yrs of experiance. The only thing that's making me confused is if I should go to dr montien. His speciality is rhinoplasty but he has fewer reviews but dr poomee is known for BA and rhinoplasty. Ahhhhh! If anyone has Any views pls let me know.or if anyone wants to go with me. Do pm me pls. Thank you:)

Updated: I am waiting for one appointment confirmation with dr greechart (yanhee) this friday (12 october). Anybody going bangkok for surgery? trying to see if anybody will be there around the same time so at least can give moral support to each other.

yup, flew there and returned by tiger, short flight, no hassle at all...

Hi I'm wondering if you can help me on this issue.
I'm planning a trip to dr nara for Feb 2013. Planning to stay in Lee Garden Plaza Hotel. But I search online, I'm unable to find a site to book a room for this hotel.
Can you please advise if you have any idea how the others managed to book it? Thank you very much!

hehe ... a case of 'dont want to loose out' for me ...lol

thanks boii18, dly noted

10 more days to go!!

Good Luck. Do update us soon after your ops.[/quote

thanks ... anyone in Hatyai now and doing their surgery tomorrow? I went looking for Dr Nara's clinic earlier and easily located it. from the front, it looks very nice, glass wall and all.

good news... Dr Nara now accepts credit card like Visa and Master. Just pay an additional 2%. I saw the credit card machine after I made my payment and curiously asked, and was told YES.

am now back to the hotel room, while on the opetating table, i was told that i will be sedated and asleep, but OH-OH, i wasnt, I was awake the entire time ,,, luckily I have seen enough operating tv series and movies to tell myself ... "ITS OK!" ... lol

What did u do with dr Nara ? Any medication did he gave you or U brought it from Sg with u... It's it scary and how's ur healing process? I will be going in another 1 week for eye and nose rhino ... Too

it was nothing scary at all ... i think, considering I went alone. Dr Nara's clinic was very easy to fine, with the entrace of Indra Hotel only 2 doors, literally, away.

The healing was smooth, with initially the eyes swollen, then it moved down to cheek swollen with eyes no more swollen, and now its cheek no more swollen and the lesser and lesser swelling has moved to the lower cheek.

Dr Nara gave me antibiotics and painkillers. The antibiotics I took diligently, however, other than taking the painkiller during the 1st few hours after the surgery, it was completely bearable to almost painless after that. I took loads of fresh pineapples daily and bought pineapple juice drinks from Tops Market. FYI, if you are staying at Centara Novotel, they have a direct lift that links you to level 5 supermarket level of Central mall without having to go down to ground floor, walk to Central and then move yhou way back up to level 5.

thats sound good... you depend on his medications purely... did you bring Sinecch ? If so.. can it be consume with the antibiotics and painkillers.... I will be staying at Lee's garden.. after hearing your condition makes me relief.. hope you have a smooth recovery ahead! !:)

Have you done yours, i am interested to go for eyes surgery with Nara, was wondering is it painful, i'm going alone thus would very much like to hear from you the post surgery before proceeding. Also hw do i go abt booking accomodation there?

Hi guys!

This is the second day after my double eyelids + epi with Dr Nara. Getting quite used to the constant tearing and mucus-y eyes and my vision is slightly better today than it was yesterday. Surprisingly, it doesn't really hurt so yay for me!

This is how my eyes look like now. Omg mad swollen and ugly! The stitches on the right don't look as nice as that of my left eye but hopefully it's okay!

Hi all,

I'm heading over to Hatyai from 13th - 18th September.
Anybody interested to head over at the same period and would like to share hotel room?

I'm going alone.

Hi......
I'm heading to hatyai from 9 of november until 15 of november....
I'm go alone too...
V can meet up in hatyai n share hotel room...

[MiuXoXo]

Thanks for compliment.
I removed my stitches on the 6th day and I didn't feel any pain during the removal. My eyelid is still numb then and in fact it is still numb today @4th week.
I went back to work on the 8th day and my colls said i doesn't look scary as they thought (they all knows im going for the surgery) thou there is still swelling.
Yes, the scar can be hidden under foundation but I didn't put on any powder or foundation around my eyes, only the mascara.
Actually my epi scar is not only red (as you can see from my pic) it is also raised. My friend recovered totally in abt 3 weeks, I think I will take longer bec I am a smoker.[/quote]

Hi Nan do you smoke before and after
The eye surgery? I intent to do Blepharoplasty
But need to hear from you because I am a smoker
And saw articles from Internet that the recovery will lead to
Complication if I did not quit. But how to when I have
Been smoking for 15 yrs

Hope to get your reply tks

I only did rhino and alar with Dr Nara. It was painless (to me) and I only took the painkiller he gave once immediately after surgery in order to sleep. I experienced swelling mostly. I went there 1 day prior to surgery and did a trial run to locate the clinic. I stayed at Centara Novotel Hotel, extremely centrally located. Bought my daily suppy of fresh pineapple at the many fruit stalls in front and side of hotel. Pineapple juice got from Tops market by taking the hotel's lift directly to 5th floor as the hotel is connected to the Central mall. Try expedia or any online travel agent like booking.com, agoda and such. The rate was approx THB1300 per night without breakfast. Did i missed anything? Oh yes, I stayed for 4 nights in total so that i do not look too swollen when I reach home ...hehe. I heard eyes require a longer de-sweeling time frame though
