WOOA DES - Day 1: consultation + surgery
I wanted to give an update the day of the surgery while the memory of it is still fresh and because I want people to know what to expect out of this surgery.
10:00 am consultation:
- the lady who helped me was great and explained the process clearly and in a way where it’s easily digestible
- the pricing breakdown was the same as it was on this app so that was a relief
- you can pay for the surgery using Apple Pay so don’t worry about that!
2:00 pm surgery preparations:
- make sure you wear something that can be removed and put on easily or you’ll have a hard time with your DES
- you’ll be directed to use the rest room and so on and change into gowns provided by the clinic
- they give you 8 hours to fast but I recommend you fasting for longer
- gave me a recommendation and showed me what my eyes would look like, and I was super satisfied
3:00 surgery:
- the team was extremely helpful and made me feel at ease. They were comforting and really supportive while getting me set up for anaesthesia
- during the surgery they were super nice while asking me how I was doing throughout the process
- after everything was done, the staff informed me on how I was feeling, and checked up on me
So far so good, but my eyes are soooooo sore, the best way to describe the feeling is the same as if I was crying really hard while rubbing my eyes.
The different procedure that I got;
- DES, incisional
- ptosis correction
- epicanthoplasty
- lateral canthoplasty
Let me know if you have any questions!! I’ll be uploading videos on TikTok for progress.
