twinnie Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 If you have eyebags, fat graft is exactly the opposite of what you need to do! Fat graft is used to fill hollow eyes. I think that for eyebags you have to do blepharoplasty... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weick Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Hello all, I have scheduled a revisional eyelids surgery with Dr. Kang at IOU in July. I was curious about the clinic's facilities. Is it clean and sterile environment? Does Dr. Kang have a separate anaesthesiologist who administers the anaesthesia? Since plastic surgery is not a regulated industry in Korea, I just want to make sure the surgery is in a safe and clean environment? Is his equipment up to date? It's hard to tell from the pictures on his website. Other websites seem to have modern and up to date facilities. I've read about "getting high" during anaesthesia. This sounds quite scary. What if there is an adverse reaction to that? Any feedback to my questions above would be greatly appreciated. Thank you~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weick Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Hello Twinnie. I was wondering if you had any thoughts on the facilities at IOU. I can't really tell from the photos. I went to the clinic in April but only saw the sitting areas and the consultation room. Was the operating room clean and up to date? Did a separate anaesthesiologist administer the anesthesia?

deepeyes Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 1. Why must go gangnam? 2. What is the purpose of watching that MV? 3. Are you advertising for wonjin and BK? I thought Advertising is not allowed. .. 4. This is revisional thread...does wonjin amd BK specialise in this? This is yr second posts but don quite understand what are you trying to do...

twinnie Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Hi. Then, from what I remember (and I've seen, since I could not see anything without my glasses!) the operating room was quite modern, although there were a few machines, actually I just remember the operating table and a few other things. I can only make a comparison with the operating room of Chungdam U, which was slightly larger and had more equipment (but perhaps this was due to the type of surgery performed). However the equipment was very, very minimal. Anesthesia was performed by a separate anaesthesiologist. One thing that I remember (and I was a bit surprised) is that (before surgery), the girls in the room did not have their head covered with the cap, but I don't know if after they have it worn or not. Anesthesia has gone very well, just before waking, I dreamed of flying, and many colors... The only annoying part was after surgery, luckily I was still under anesthesia, I had to open, close or blink the eyes. I remember that, on the basis of what he saw, the doctor did something to my eyes, and I felt a bit of pain (tingling), this last phase lasted quite a while. I think the reason is, as I was told days later by the doctor, who was not easy to perform the surgery on me because I couldn't open my eyes completely, so I do not think this thing is the same for all. After, I didn't feel any pain, I had not even taken the painkillers they gave me!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weick Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Hi everyone. Ive been told i need an upper eyelid fat graft, ptosis correction and removal of excess skin. I've read that the fat may be absorbed by our bodies and may need to do a re graft. Has anyone done an upper eyelid fat graft? If so did you have to redo the graft a few months or years later? I realize everyone's body is different and may results may vary but just curious if anyone has done this and whether the results were long lasting. Also how bad is the bruising and swelling? How long does that last? I'm visiting some family members 2 weeks after and in hoping no one would notice with my glasses on. Is that wishful thinking?
