Hi Everyone,
I just did my arm 360 lipo at Girin plastic surgery and I am slowly recovering now!
I had my final consultation with Dr Park Doek Jun and he was very friendly and professional. I think because he has done so many arm lipo surgery he knew where to draw for the preop design. I showed him photos of what arm I wanted and he understood.
I was feeling relaxed before the surgery but when I walked into the surgery room I started to get a bit nervous, I told my translator but she was nice and reassured me it was okay. It may feel scary but when the nurses sedate you and you breathe into the gas you’ll get knocked out pretty quickly. I went under general anaesthesia.
When I woke up after the surgery I was quite nauseous and I needed to hold on to the nurse as I walked. As I was waking out of the surgery room I saw the fat that had been removed from my arms which was great to see. Apparently i had 850ml removed!
I was give 2 hours to rest in the recovery room with a heated blanket and got ready to leave. I had called my friend to come pick me up ( I recommend bringing someone to help you) and she led me down to the pharmacy next to Girin to pick up my medicine and banaids. She called the taxi and we made it back to my apartment where I ate some congee and drank lots of water.
I woke up the next morning and was very puffy and had some leakage. My body felt very sore and tired so I took my prescribed medicines. My body was swelling and my arm looked even bigger then pre-op but I knew that was part of the process.
The first 2-3 days it is best to relax as you may be quite swollen, by day 4-6 I said see the swelling subside. I would say wearing the compression garment is very uncomfortable but it is necessary to wear as it compresses the swelling. You need to wear the compression garment 23-24/7 a week.
By day 7 I went to get the stitches out which was very quick and painless. Dr Park Doek Jun came in to do the post op assessment and he said the swelling will subside. I am grateful he came and double checked everything.
Regarding the results, I saw a difference on day 9-10. I have to have more patience but I am really excited to see what this would look like in a month.
