Eyelid Stitching Part 2: Recovery process

Hello!
As you guys know, I got double eyelid stitching d! I blogged the whole process in my last post.
(Read this first) Part 1: http://karweigoay.blogspot.com/2015/01/double-eyelid-stitching-part-1-process.html
Anyway, I just made my second visit back to the clinic for the doctor to check on my eyes.

Say no more, I bet you people got really curious on how my eyelids healing d!

Recovery Process

Day 1 (the same day I did):

I got home looking like this, my mom freaked out, nothing else.

No pain no fuss. Though I was feeling like having a thousand ants pulling my eyelids hahaha! They felt damn tight all the time. 

All is good and my eyelids felt like marshmallow till night lolol!! 麻醉药好强

The blue marker stayed on for days because I was too scared to touch, let alone removing it.

I couldn't sleep that night lmao!  Cus I was afraid of ruining the thread   :'( 

Day 2:

Bruises got worse than the first day, my eyes got all reddish and blood-like. Quite scary.

Hurt a little, feels as if I got punched in the eyes.  觉得自己被海扁的感觉

From Snapchat. I took this to scare all my friends 

My eyes got more swollen than ever, I made a call to AO klinik.

They asked me to not let water to touch my eyes yet, so I didn't shower HAHAHHA fuck lah I'm damn lazy cos they actually just asked me to not let water get onto my eyelids but I used it as an excuse to not let water touch me entire body!

I did washed my face carefully tho, without letting water near my eyes.

Wore a mask while I went out to increase peoples' curiosity.

There are 5 tiny hole on each of my eyelid. They marked where the thread went through.

Eyelid stitching, means stitching a thread through your eyelids, therefore forming double eyelids.

The threads will be looking kinda obvious during the recovery process, but till they are fully recovered,

They wont be seen anymore, so no worries!

我做的是stitching  顾名思义就是缝/埋线  所以有线是正常的 

刚做好的时候会很明显的看到有线在眼皮上面 可是等到完全复原就不会看到了!

所以要耐心等待呀  会变美美的  :)

Day 4 & 5:

Still bruising and swelling. But you can tell the shape is looking good.

Some of the parts got extra reddish and my mom said it was.. infection :// ? I wasn't but they come and go quickly!

On day 4 & 5 my eyes got quite itchy lor!  I beh tahan and I very carefully rubbed them.

Oh and also my eyes got very very dry  ://  luckily Dr. Ha did give me some eye-drop <3 

Here's a closer photo that I forgot whether I took it on day 4 or 5.

Either way, not much diff.

I stayed in these few days and almost died of boredom :/  

Day 6:

**DO NOT ASK WHAT HAPPENED TO MY FACE**

I got into a minor accident that's all. 

On the sixth day I had a lunch date with my best friend. 

So I filled in my brows a little, went out like this weeeeeeeeeee.

As you can see my eyes recovering really good d wow wow! Getting better each day.

Patience is ALL I NEED <3

I know you guys must be very curious and go all what happened to your face?!

Accident okay accident.   Let's ignore it, stay focus on my eyes :D

Day 8:

It's been exactly one week!

I made my second visit back to AO Klinik and I put on a little makeup cos I cannot tahan how deadly I look anymore!

Taaaaadaaaaa!  是不是蛮美了  :D    #不要脸

I drew an ultra eyeliner and made sure I didn't touch the thread at all.

5 of the tiny holes that I mentioned earlier already being slowly absorbed le la! 

Soon I'll have really natural eyelids d, can't wait :D

I even took a super chio selfie:

...

Tho the girls from AO Klinik advised me to not to put on make up/ wear contact lenses if its unnecessary.

Because my eyes still swollen abit lah actually, look at the photo, the dark dark part on my eyelid.

Thats no eyeshadow, its bruising hahaa.

From day 1 to day 8.

Hahhahahahahaha gosh such big difference!  

他妈的真的差很多 好像两个不同的人    化妆还有相机的威力呀

Guess I'll stop at Day 8 as I see them healing quite fast already!
Maybe I'll do a up-to-date post one month later.  But I'm already satisfy with the result on day 8 d!

Now, lets move on to another section,


Q&A

Okay now I'm going to answer all your questions HERE.
Pretty sure you can find everything HERE.  If not, comment yr question under this post, I'll add it in.
Don't get on my nerves by coming up to me and asking the same question again T.T
I really cannot repeat the same thing for a hundred times okay?  And I'm almost there d.
Pay extra attention on the part you're keen! Be considerate and save both of ours time :p


Q:  How long will it last? 这双眼皮会耐多久
For my case(stitching) can last only like 2-3 years depending how fast the thread will go disappear;
For cutting, it can last forever.

But I chose not to cut, because I'm still young and I'm not ready to change my look forever yet.
I mean, if thing goes wrong with the stitching, I can always go back to the clinic and take the thread off.
If I were to cut them, uh-oh, even if I hate it also there's nothing I can do already.

因为我是用缝的 所以只能耐2-3年这样  ； 如果是割的话 就可以耐永远的
我不想要割  因为还年轻先缝缝看 自己喜不喜欢   几年等它脱落后再决定割也不迟。


Q：Does it hurt? 会痛吗
Not at all. Though I felt slightly uncomfortable on day 4th and 5th.
It's nothing much ma :)   It just felt like I got punched in the eyes hahha. For real!
Tho the recovery process hurt a little bit, oh just imagine you got something wrong and got punched!
Rest for a few days then no problem d la :D

真的不会痛  因为医生的麻药真的很强 ；
麻醉针打了我直接觉得自己的眼皮是棉花糖  麻麻的 什么都没感觉  ^_^
而复原的时候前几天 眼睛就会感觉肿肿黑青的  会有一点点不舒服 ；
可是我到第6 & 7 就不会这样了  很快就过去了


Q: How long will it take to be fully recovered?
According to the doctor, 7 days till its done swelling, 3-4 weeks till it becomes completely natural.
医生说7天会消肿   ，3到4个礼拜就会很自然啦 :)


Q:  Need to rest how many days till I put on makeup & wear contact lenses? 做了过后多久能化妆
Doctor did advice that I don't wear contact lenses for one month. Hahah but I couldn't tahan!
As you see above, I curi curi wore them and put on make up on day 8 already :p
Anyways, doctor said I could totally draw eyeliner, as long as it doesn't affect the part where the thread is placed.

医生是劝说停止佩戴隐形眼镜1个月左右  可是我不听话的第8天就戴了 T.T 希望没什么影响
化妆是可以啦!  只要没有影响到线的位置


Q: You already got double eyelid, why did you do again?
I am saying this for one last time, I DONT HAVE DOUBLE EYELID.
I know what I am so don't piss me off by accusing this and that

This is how my eyes normally look like.

Not only are they single, they're also super 'lazy eyes' 懒惰眼  无神眼

All of those fakee double eyelids you saw from my selfies are not real!  :/

I have this talent where I can kek my eyes from single to double eyelid for photo-taking hahaha!

Even after makeup I still single-eyelids one okkkkk.

So please, gimme a break <3

Q: Why you wanna reveal to the public that you did this? Aren't you scared of gossips? 为什么要公开 不怕被人讲吗
Hahahha I really think it's nothing, I just love to share.
Singaporen bloggers do this a lot: blog about their Plastic Surgery trip to Korea and all that.
And it's very common these days!

And you can never stop people from talking.  Does that mean you have to stop doing what u like to avoid being on others lips?
I love blogging and I'm gonna do it, despite what people say.
Don't you be so naive and think that you won't be the gossip topic just because you don't show nothing at all.
现今社会   很多事情都是 躺着也中枪 。
来去都要被讲了 , make your side of story worth the read   :)

Here's my tips on how to not care what people thin/sayL

Also, I wanna use this as a chance to advise people that keen on doing aesthetic/ surgeries,
Please go to the legit clinics!   Do not believe anything you see online.

这个不是开玩笑的   我想要告诉所有人不要轻易相信你在网上看到的微整店
有很多都没有certificate的  ，也不是真正医生
就上过几次的课程就敢敢学人家开店 真的太夸张了  好恐怖
请大家三思   不要贪便宜   ；出事的时候后悔就太迟了
还是花多点钱去正规的诊所吧



Q: Will you be doing anything else? 除了眼睛你还会做其他部位吗
Hahaha I can't say anything for sure! But for now, nope, I wont be doing anything else anytime soon.
But I think I will be saving up for my nose next, but we will see :'(   need to save another round of money.

做了眼睛 就开始觉得自己的鼻子丑了   ；人都这么不知足呀。

Before & After Comparison Photo

Before double eyelid stitching and the eighth day after it! 
Tho they have not fully recovered yet but you can tell my eyes have very big diffs d heheh.

从还没有做双眼皮埋线前到埋过后的第八天
虽然还有点小肿 没有完全康复  ，可是差别已经很大啦！
相信完全痊愈的时候会更加自然更加好看.

Thank you all for reading and I'll be really happy if I helped enlightening your wonders

I appreciate all the positive comments that I've gotten.

For any of you that thinks I'm brave and all, thanks!   Luv you ~ <3 

And enough, don't keep questioning/ obsessing about what happen to my face lah!!
Lehma I fell off a motorcycle okay?!   Fuck damn siasui bye.

Double Eyelid Stitching Part 1: Process & Thoughts

This is gonna be one long ass blog post.

Be patient or be gone :p

So I bet yall already knew that I planned on doing eyelid-stitching since I stated it loud and clear in my 2015 Resolutions.

Yepppp, I  already get them done   T_____T   A round of applause for my efficiency please!

Its's a long story from consultation till them finally done, I'll gonna elaborate every single detail properly so you don't miss out. 

The Doctor

Dr. Ha is a very very good doctor, professional, patient, friendly, always smiling, never got annoyed even tho
I asked like a thousand times the same question regarding the procedure. Non-stop he kept giving me his words. He is very nice lah!!
So glad that I chose the right doctor, cos I always chose the wrong boys HAHAHA just a joke :p 

"Wei doctor what if the outcome not nice ah!!" Me being the paranoid me.

"Then I'll do it again for you, do until you satisfy okay?"   Says doctor with the world most friendly smile.

"WAAAAAAAA FREE IS IT"  Me being my greedy self HAHHAA.

"Hahah yes" Says Dr Hah, the world most generous doctor.

I was like  :O :O :O

Ok after he said that I'm not worried at all d lol.

Because the worst thing that I scared is that I paid the money, but the outcome isn't what I desired it to be.
懂不懂  就是那种钱出了还是不美的感觉 lolol
我没有怕失败  没有怕割到我眼睛之类的，姐只是怕效果出来不美！
可是听医生这么说 这么把握  这么有信心 ，我也没有这么担心啦  T.T

I can't tell you enough how good Dr. Hah is, I just can't. 

Maybe its because this is my first aesthetic procedure, with the money I saved for half year and more,

It felt more than just a procedure, it's the trust that matters.  The faith!!!!!!

And I am happy beyond words that I stumbled upon Dr. Hah. I trusted him with my soul and I have no regret!!

Lol sounds dramatic but u know how they say you need one week to recover and done swelling?

I'm typing this 3 days after the procedure and my eyes hardly swollen now!  It's healing really fast and let me tell you,

Dr. Ha's stitching skill is MAD GOOD. MAD GOOD I tell you 

I felt nothing throughout the whole process I almost fell asleep. 

The girls were there too, throughout the whole process. They watched as the doctor stitched.

They said the doctor was very fast, accurate and the whole process was actually scary hahah but the doctor handled damn well!
就是那种传说的  快，狠，准

The Process

All the photos are taken by Michelleeeeee, thank you loveeee <3 
Just to give u a head up, all these photos are not specially posed for. My natural self.
Damn ugly ah. Don't judge ah. And you'll know why I keep calling myself ugly d ah.
-


Arrived at Dr. Ha's clinic at 11:30 when my appointment is set at 11am. Hahaha :p
We happened to bump into a mid-aged aunty who was also waiting to get a aesthetic procedure too.

Ohhh, did I mention that Dr. Ha is a dentist too..
OK I KNOW HOW THIS SOUNDS TO YOU. But he is good in both teeth & face work!

This is where I'll be sitting the whole process.

I felt a little bit uneasy at first, was like 'hey I'm getting face work, why put me on this chair'

Confession hour, I've been afraid of going to the dentist ever since I was little.

So, putting me onto a chair like this only reminds me of my childhood phobia, double up my anxiety.

Nice work doctor.  *grumpy*

These two are Dr, Ha's students who trying that gain themselves some knowledge by being there to see the whole thing.

They were asking why would I wanna do this, how old am I, bla bla.

Dr. Ha!

The girls! They were there for me inside the treatment room.

Another milestone of ours  T.T    "看karwei变美之mission"

I was damn nervous I updated a super lala wechat status. 

In case something happens right, must leave some last words to my friends..

Choi.  I'm here typing this perfectly fine :)

Yes, I look like a bald when I tie all my hair up cos my hairs too thin and flat.

Hahaha!  Then I showed Dr. Ha my selfie photos, trying to describe what my ideal eyes look like.

I look as if I have double eyelid in all my photos, thats only because I kek my eyes open lols! 

I don't know how to explain it to you, I'll try to explain in next post.

Listened to what I had to say, he then poked my eyes with a thin silver metal thing.

Trying to create the effect that how my eyes will be looking after the procedure!

Doctor:  Is this okay for you?

Me:  *asks everybody else in the room*  

Yes, I said okay.
Dr. Ha then drew the place he'll be stitching the thread with a marker pen.
A super strong marker pen that it stayed on for 3 days AND I AM NOT ALLOWED TO WASH MY EYES.

After everything set in place, doctor asked if I was ready.

Hell yeaaaa, I've never been more ready!! Lolllll actually I was still nervous

Anesthetic injection comes next.  The anesthetic only on my eyes, not whole body.

So only my eyes get numb, every other part of my body still can function well!

I was awake throughout the whole time!! No pass out lolll

After the injection

Doctor:  How your eyes feel?

Me:  I feel like having two big marshmallows up on my eyes.

Please look at how single eyelid I am, and lazy eyes!  

I'm so sorry I lied you all with my selfies and all those fancy photos :p

I actually looked like this.

After the anesthetic effect takes place, Dr. Ha lured me into signing a 生死状。

HAHHAHAHA no lah! It's just a formal paper stating that there'll be risk for every aesthetic procedure,

And to let me know that what I'm about to bring myself into and I'm all willingly to enter it.

Ok here we go.

All covered up like this so the doctor can put the concentration on my eyes?..

Thats it, we weren't allow to take anymore photos of the further process.
But I can tell you what happened BUAHHAHA.

Doctor first took a cap thingy and put it onto my eyeball, both of them. In order to protect my eyes.
And next, he started stitching d. That'll only be my assumption because
I really really really couldn't feel a thing, can't even tell if he was touching my eyes or no
I felt damn bored I almost felt asleep, but the doctor kept me awake by frequently asking how I feel

Doctor: How you feel?
Me: Nothing
Doctor: How you feel now?
Me: Nothing
Doctor: How you feel now
Me: I SAID NOTHING
..

Okay I didn't caplock him and I know he just wanted to make sure I feel no pain. Very lovely and full of patience
He asked every 5 seconds, no kidding. Few minutes later, he's done with my right eye. Thats it?! So fast

Then my left eye, I guess the anesthetic effect kinda faded d, so at one point, I felt as if a knife stabbed into my eyelid.
I screamed.. The doctor said Sorry, then put on more anesthetic med for me. Then I felt alright d.

DO U HAVE ANY IDEA HOW IMPORTANT ANESTHETIC IS!??
Very very very important. It is that one thin line between hell and heaven.
Make sure you go to proper clinics that provide good anesthetic cream. Don't siao siao.


15 minutes later,

Holla new eyes! 

It takes 1-3weeks to get really really natural eyelids. So I'll have to wait!

And the doctor say after 7 days, it will not be so swollen anymore.

Heh, I'm typing on Day 5, almost recovered d!  Nothing major also no bruises d

The stitching process took only about 10-15 minutes, 

The other time was just me swinging in the room, talking none-sense(I do this when I'm nervous),

Talking to the girls, being on my phone and the anesthetic application. 

Thats what makes the procedure long. Actually if to get it done quickly, 30 mins should be done d.

But the doctor tend to put u in a more relaxing feel, talk to you. Thats why :)

Uploaded this on Instagram and I received 2 emails & 4 new friend requests on wehchat,

Asking about information regarding this double eyelid thing.

Seriously this is like my very first time my reader emails me, and it's about a aesthetic treatment! Haha

The girls told me that it was quite scary to watch:

Dr. Ha was holding a very very tiny needle, then he flipped my eyelid inside out, and started stitching..

They said they damn kan jeong for me hahaha!

I survived.  

Victory is mine

When I thought I couldn't get any uglier.. I saw this photo of myself.. Smh.

Anyways, my eyes just swollen for a bit. No blood, no bruises (yet)

We then left the clinic, go to airport and jump on a plane back home.

If you're wondering about my vision afterwards, nope, no problem seeing things!

Just that my eyes couldn't get exposed too much under sunlight, seeing brighter things make them tired.

And I would love to have shades on all day, guess my eyes love a darker world. 

Guess I'll have to leave the recovery process in next post!

If I were to fit everything into one blog post, Blogger would sue me for being such naggy-ass blogger.

So, stay tuned to see how amazingly my eyes look afterwards! 

I'll update SOOOOOOOOON <3

My Thoughts

So far, I've received nothing but supportive comments from all my friends and families.
I really don't need any of your judgment because I is super happy with my decision.
My mom asked
"Most of the people went to do plastic surgery also damn secretive one.
Why the fuck are you not scared of letting people know?" 

I don't, I just don't okay?
It's really common these days and fuck natural beauty, there is no natural beauty.
Before you point your finger at me, think about how many surgeries your 女神 went for before they became your 女神.
Open up your instagram, how many of them pretty girls still 100% pure?
And you know what they say, even putting on braces is considered as plastic surgery. Pfff.

My point is, the society only cares about how pretty you became at the end of the day.
Not how many works u get done on your face. Don't even try to deny it
You know it in your heart.

And I want to blog about this, in case anyone wants to go for a double-eyelid stitching,
I'm always ready to share!!  Again I'm saying this, choosing the right clinic is crucial.
Whats with helping others to get more infos about the clinic you went to?
Lolll some people infuriating me, got the balls to do dont have the balls to admit.

By 2. Haaahahah
Ok just kidding :*

 I know some of you is very lovely and supportive.
Love you!! 


Thanks for reading, stay tuned for my next recovery post! xx
