Eyelids Surgery Part 3

On my way to eyelids review. It has been 2 weeks since I remove the stitches. However, my scars didn't get any better. No choice, I have bad issue with scarring.

Doctor reviewed my eyes and said that the bumps on my eyelids creases are normal. Soon, they will disappear. However, it were the scars on my epi that worried him. That part of my face don't feel normal; they are harden, like blocks. Whenever the doctor pressed on the scars, they hurt!

Thus, there is a possibility that they will become Keloids scars! Woohoo!!!

So before they get worse, I have to apply a scarring cream, 3 times a day and massage the epi scar.

Hope the cream can perform miracle, so I can skip the "injection for scars" part.

  

 Tadah!!! This is the cream I am pinning all my hope on! PLEASE HELP ME!

  

Apply and massage!

Anyway, lets zoom in, to my disgusting scars!

  

Well, the scars might actually affect the shape of the crease. Now, they look neither tapered nor parallel. FML

Review for scars will be in 2 weeks time. Hopefully they will get well!
Pray for me please!

Sorry for the lousy picture quality, unkempt eyebrows and ugly face and poses.
Will try to take better pictures when my lens is fixed. :(

Moles Removal

Yesterday was hectic,

IPL hair removal -> Postage @ SingPost -> collect referral letter from GP -> appointment at National Skin Centre.

As usual, I woke up late to woke and had to cab to centre point for my IPL appointment. Signed up the package with Angie 1 year ago, went to treatment once and stopped until yesterday. I signed up for upper lips with unlimited underarms session. But guess what; I had braces on and can't do the IPL for upper lips anymore! SOB, got to live with moustache for another 1.5 years.

 

So which part should I do instead? Bikini Line, Upper Vagina Triangle, Lower Vagina Triangle or Inner Thigh?

 OOTD for yesterday. I looked so fat. :(
Was in Perri Shoulder Cut-Out Top in Black from The FridayBest.
It is only selling at $18.90.
I took picture with my side view to show my flatter but not very flat tummy. Got progress! Anyway, I shed 5 kg. Hopefully will reach target soon!

Got an appointment at the national skin centre. My purpose was to remove those unsightly moles on my body. Why will I have so many moles?

  

 

 

While waiting for my turn! I hope my eyes look better :D

I am starting to love them!
 

 

The moles I wanted to remove. One on the chest, one on the neck and one near my ear.

And my neck lines are horrible. ZZZ

According to the doctor, mole is form by a group of pigmented cells.

 But he never say why will have pigmented cells.

After examine the moles, he said all the moles are with deep root. To remove them completely, I will need to opt for excision method.

To sum things up, it is like cutting a part of your flesh together with the mole away, and stitch back.
But the best part was, a mole cost about SGD$500.
SO EXPENSIVE!

There will also be scars, especially if I have Keloids!
So I decided not to do the surgery and live with ugly moles forever.
SOB!
And the consultation cost me $101. Sigh!
Spent money to get disappointment.

Met up with Angie and Sihui.

Thanks Girls for meeting me. I might sound moody yesterday, I am still happy that we met up.

Eyelids Surgery Part 2

After a week, it is finally time to remove the stitches. Was so worried about the stitches removal, cause everyone said they were sobbing during the stitches removal.

 

That's how I look like before the removal and the swell had almost subside.

 

When I reached the clinic, there are quite a number of people, mostly young girls, coming back for reviews. It shows how common cosmetic surgery has become and young girls can really afford surgery now.

Was asking the doctor about the pain level for stitches removal and he said it will only be an ant bite.

I actually didn't believe in the first place, but what I feel when he started the procedure was he was pulling a string out of my lids very smoothly and it only hurt abit at the epi area.

Still have to go back to review in 2 weeks time, because he need to check if I have any scars, and I am worried about having keloids scars at the epi area.

 

 

AFTER STITCHES REMOVAL

LOOK AT THE FRONT PART!

It look like I am going to have keloids for sure, cause the scars look 3D.

 

I was so sad at the moment. The doctor said if it is really keloids, I will have to apply a cream specially for keloids to flatten them. But if the cream doesn't work, I will have jab the scar. FML!

 

Also, he said my eyes look droopy, because my eyes are always half open. I need to open my eyes bigger everyday, if not I will still have small eyes for life. OMG, I HAVE WEAK EYES MUSCLES!

Lazy eyes?

 

But my case is not serious. Droopy but still can be help if I keep my eyes open big big everyday and get use to it.

If it is the serious case, a muscle strengthening surgery can be done to "Open" up the eyes.

Sadly, the surgery is quite expensive; $5K or more.

 

Hopefully I don't need it!

 

I still have to apply cream and do cold pack everyday, to reduce the swellings. The eyes still look unnatural and my left eyes look tapered! :(

Hopefully it get back to parallel when the swell subside.

 POST REMOVAL DAY 2

 

LEFT

RIGHT
The right eye heals better than the left one; more parallel, epi without 3D scar.

Please help me pray that I will heal beautifully! Thank you very much!
Sorry that my skin look very disgusting. The condition is very bad now. Can't clean my face properly when I was still havng stitches on, that's why grew alot of black heads.

Will update more again, bye bye!

Eyelids Surgery

Yayyyyy! I finally did something to my eyes, something I wanted to do for a long time. LOL.

Bye ugly inner eyelids, bye epi folds and best of all, bye double eyelid stickers!

Anyway, on the 12th March 2013, which is just a few days ago, I did my double eyelids surgery incision methods (cutting) and medial epicanthoplasty.

I reached the clinic at 9.30am, and that's when the nurse came to brief me about the surgery and fed me with a medicine that will reduce swelling.

After which, we went into the surgery room and the doctor used a tool to show me different height of the crease possible (high range and low range). My face couldn't handle a ultra thick crease because my eyebrows are way too near my eyes. In the end, we settled for a 8.5mm height.

Then the doctor got me to lie down and he started drawing. He said he was designing the parallel eyelids and marking the places he should cut. This was a super long process as he was very precise and accurate. He measured and re-measured, drew and re-drew, just to make sure everything was equal.

And the surgery started. I was put to sleep and my eyes were totally numbed. But after awhile, I woke up half way, was drowsy but couldn't get back to sleep. I could feel they were cutting away the excess skin with scissor, using the laser equipment to burn the fats away and sewing. No pain at all. I was asked to open my eyes so the doctor can gauge if the eyelids are equal.

After the surgery was done, the nurse put a cold pack compression on my eyes to reduce the swelling. I slept for awhile before the nurse informed my mum to pick me up.

When the nurse woke me up, I looked into the mirror, expecting to see my eyes with serious bruises, but to my surprise, I looked perfectly fine, except for the swell and black stitches.

Collected the medication, which includes pain killer, a cream for affected area and also a medicine to reduce swelling.

The whole surgery took 2.5 hours, faster then expected. The whole process may sound traumatising but believe me, it is not that bad. Maybe my doctor really put me at ease. (: I am so so so glad that I went to him.

That's how I looked when I came out of the clinic. Not that bad right?

The stitches. 

My mum started to stocked up alot of pineapples in the fridge and my lovely aunt bought alot of fishes and vegetable for me too.

I was only allowed to have fishes, vegetables and pineapples everyday cause they aids in recovering and pineapples reduce swelling.

Although the doctor only asked me to avoid sea foods and spices, my mother banned me from dark and light soya sauce (cause scars?), chickens and eggs (cause keloids) too.

Also, they got me 5 cold packs.

POST SURGERY DAY 1  

I still took pain killer on post surgery day 1, quite painful, especially the epi.

But it wasn't so swollen anymore.

POST SURGERY DAY 2

It only gets better (:

The wounds start to itch abit in the morning, means it was healing.

But during the night, it got very itchy.

I tried to be very careful while sleeping, but I still touched my eyes while sleeping cause it was too itchy.

In the end, I woke up in pain. :( Immediately applied cold pack on my eyes and went back to sleep.

I was so afraid that I will scratch the stitches and the stitches will snap. LOL

Was too paranoid.

POST SURGERY DAY 3 - TODAY 

This is how I look now. Better?

Will be heading town later. I hope I won't look so post-surgery when with spectacles on.

Will be removing the stitches next Tuesday. Can't wait. Will update more again.

Its cold pack time again, bye!
