My Review of Thank You Plastic Surgery
After researching and planning for a long time, I finally did my surgery! I want to give back to the community since you guys have helped a lot with my process!
Online + in person consultation:
Very responsive online! Both the clinic and I had some scheduling issues but we were able to sort it out due to clean and quick communication.
They had a Chinese AND English consultant present which was great for both me and my mom as I’m more fluent with English and my mom is more fluent in Chinese. Yumi and Chloe were amazing at making us feel welcomed and valued, much more than the other clinics I visited.
Dr. Kim was very straight forward with what can or cannot be done with my eyes based on the pictures I showed him. He had a special tool to help create a double eyelid. I noticed his tools were more fancy as other clinics used toothpicks. I was advised to go with upper canthoplasty, and non incisional OR incisional method. Most clinics I consulted with said incisional with upper canthoplasty, so I went with that method.
He showed me three different lines, I opted for number 2 as it was a good medium. He mentioned a higher line would be create puffiness from the excess skin.
He also suggested eyebrow lift or forehead lift in order to reduce the extra skin that hovers over my eye. I decided to only get DES as I was unfamiliar with those procedures. He mentioned I could do it later and it didn’t have to be a package deal.
Consultation was quick and informative, not too personal or anything. After, I discussed the logistics of the surgery with the consultant and I decided to book my surgery the next day.
Day of surgery:
After some procedures to prep for surgery, I consulted with Dr. Kim on the final plan for eyes. I’m a pretty nervous and indecisive person in general, so I was even more scared right before surgery. He started creating a double eyelid on my eyes again with his tool, except with both of my eyes and taking much more time. He mentioned I could do the 2.5 line if I wanted the crease to show more, but it would cause some puffiness. After some indecisive back and forth with him showing each line multiple times, I decided on 2. We spent around 30 minutes on this consultation, since I was very unsure and there was a lot of pressure, as I don’t want to regret anything (Hopefully Doctor didn’t find me annoying hahaha, I feel like maybe I was too indecisive and he became stern).
Afterwards, they sedated me in the operation room. I didn’t feel pain, just some tugging. It felt like a dream. I think I was talking to the doctor at some point? I can’t remember much. It felt like 5 minutes, and then I was brought to a room to rest. Once I felt better, I was given instructions on medicine and aftercare and went home.
There was no pain during the surgery, but the pain level is quite high afterwards. It hurts to open and close my eyes. Perhaps I am more sensitive to the pain? I guess it varies between everyone as I’ve heard that some people don’t feel much pain, and others do.
The first week was semi painful as I had stitches in my eyes so it was uncomfortable to blink and open my eyes. I used the provided ice pack to deswell.
After the stitches were taken out, my healing went much faster. I would say I looked normal by week three surprisingly.
At one month post op, I think I’m 90% healed! I still have scarring (which is normal) and swell occasionally in the morning, but overall it looks completely healed.
Overall, my journey went way smoother than expected and I’m so happy to have chosen Thank You.
