Double Eyelid Surgery Thread

[Guest sweetfunnyhoney]

sweetfunnyhoney---did you get it cut or what?

and did your lids shrink at all?

ANDD ...haha sorry...

did your doctor know how to speak english?

i got the non-incision method. they pinched two dots and stitched one area

(i also got my inner corner cut/stitched)

of course they shrank, they were swollen like no other and slimmed down as months went by.

the doctor knew english very well, my krn is very limited so i started speaking konglish to the doctor but he was like, "dont worry, you can speak english to me, i understand"

---excess skin obscuring the natural fold of the upper eyelids

---loose skin hanging down from the upper eyelids, perhaps impairing vision

---puffy appearance to the upper eyelids, making the eyes look tired

---excess skin and fine, creepy wrinkles of the lower eyelids

---bags and dark circles under the eyes, often with a depression along the bony border of the lower eyelids

---droopiness of the lower eyelids, showing white below the iris (colored portion of the eye)

lol thats like describing one of my eyes. I have one double eyelid and another single it looks so dumb >< but im not considering surgery just yet, maybe if i grow a bit more it'l turn into a double xD

your so brave! i must praise you for that. Id probably faint at the sight of needles.

jamie---your eyelids definately look SUPER natural...

but the eyelids are tiny!...

when he experimented on you with the metal stick, is that what you looked like? did you want it that small?

your doctor seems cool, but if i were to go there, i dont want it that small....

[Guest kangxbyul]

I'm confused >.<

what is non-incision method

and the other method? there are only 2 methods right? lol sorry.

I'm guessing the non-incision is when you just "jjib uh" your eyelid?

Hey I was wondering if there are any other great places to get double eyelid surgery apart from Korea. Any recommendations for Hong Kong or China?

[Guest yuans7love]

wow your day of surgery pics look really good

i saw my friend last week about four days after her surgery and her eyes were sooooo swollen yours doesn't even look that swollen

[Guest efflorescence]

Pattie Says: Hey! Can your doctor speak english fluently?

[Guest stellabella]

I recently started thinking about getting this surgery done. Are there any places in America that specialize in double eyelid surgery? I'm currently in Korea but I'll be leaving in 2 weeks, and there is no way I'd be able to get it done right now. No money + it's a big deal to talk to with my parents. I'd rather talk about it with them face to face.

Anyway, another thing is that I just turned 16 two months ago. Is is not recommended for youngin's to get this surgery?

My Experience-!!

I just got my ssang gah pul surgery about 9 hours ago,ha. I just got it done here where I live, Atlanta, rather than going to Korea or LA or something. The doctor was good, he was recommended by my aunt. There are two asian plastic surgeons in Atlanta that I know of, one is Korean and the other is Vietnamese. The Korean doctor was going to charge like $500 more than the Vietnamese guy and they both studied at the same schools and you know are pretty much equal. So I got it done with the Vietnamese doctor, Khuong Nguyen. Cost $1000, which is pretty good price.

I wasn't nervous at all for some reason. I just sat in this dentist-like chair and the nurse cleaned my face and put my hair in a plastic cap and some other protective coverings and gave me an antibiotic. Then the doctor put some numbing medicine in my eye and injected some kind medication (I'm assuming it was local anesthesia). The injections were the absolute worst part of the procedure they hurt like crazy. That's why my left eye is more swollen than my right eye because I strained and tensed up when he applied the injection in the left. Other than that all I could hear was the doctor cutting and stitching and a faint sound of the radio. He asked me to open my eyes from time to time.Afterwards, they sat me up and gave me a mirror and to my horror twas a red puffy eyed monster in my reflection. Total procedure took about 45 minutes.

Whenever I sneeze my eyes feel like they're going to explode. Hopefully with my many ice packs at the ready, the swelling will go down a bit. I hope my results will turn out as pretty as the people here who have posted pictures of theirs! And as soon as my eyes look presentable I'll post up some pics. I don't want to scare everybody with my eyes at their current state. I'm Korean and 16 yrs old almost 17 by the way, in case anyone was randomly wondering.

My eyelids must be in eyelid hell.

[Guest Aestas]

There's a vietnamese doctor in my state but i don't really trust him because most of the people who goes in, comes out looking the same... same type of crease...

I have to get eye surgery for medical reasons soon. I found out that what's been bugging my eye lately has been my eyelashes pushing down on it. I'm so scared though....ahhh!!!

me too a lot of people have that problem

[Guest singerchick]

I'm not sure if this has already been discussed, but if your eyes are small, will double eyelid help a lot? Or will it just add a crease? Also, isn't there an operation that like cuts your eyes, part of the skin so that the actual eye opening is bigger?
