November 2015This is my second time posting something here. I got my eyelids fixed on December 28, 2015. The first picture you see is before the surgery. The other two were taken one month after the surgery. Although my eyes were not small (even before the surgery), they were uneven in size, and depending on my condition the eye line looked different, which made my whole face look very different (or that’s how I felt), and I remember being really stressed out about it. So, I decided to get the surgery. It’s been a month now, and I am back at the clinic for a check-up. The doctor is very professional and meticulous in what he does. And the counselor did a really good job too. They told me that the swelling will go away. My eyes look much more balanced, and with the new look (as the matter of fact, I feel that my whole look has now changed) I feel more confident. I have number of other places that I want to work on, but the counselor told me to first enjoy the new look I have and then come back later for more surgery. They don’t try to push me to get surgery, and that made me want to trust them even more. Since I have really small (and short too) nose, I think I want to get my nose done next time I come here. I think I like this place, because I not only click with the people here, but I am also really happy with the results.

October 2015I got my eyelids done 2 weeks ago. I have very small eyes, and it was hard to keep my eyes wide open, so I felt really tired very quickly whenever I studied. So I decided to do some surgery. Swellings are mostly gone, but I wish they will go away sooner. I didn’t notice it before, because I saw myself every day in front of the mirror, but when I checked my photo, I could see I really look different from before. I hesitated because I was afraid of what might happen, but now that I know that I could look this good with a simple surgery I wish I had known better. It’s a huge success for me.

May 2015Although I had double eye-lids, they were uneven and I looked aggressive. So I decided to go get a surgery. Prior to the surgery, I heard that there was going to be a pretty bad swelling, and sure enough the swelling was bad and I felt depressed…until I got rid of the stitches and the swelling went away very quickly. I wanted to get the bottom part done as well, but my eyes are a bit slanted downwards, so the doctor told me that it was unnecessary. I did think about it a lot, because this was my very first surgery, but personality-wise I am rather bold. The doctor is very meticulous in what he does, and the counselor was also very nice. If I say the surgery doesn’t hurt at all, that’s a lie. But you will like what you see in the mirror. I am actually thinking about getting my nose done as well. The doctor told me to come back for after-case two more times. Even after a month, the doctor told me to come back to see how things are. I need to go back next next week. But because they are so professional about what they do, I don’t mind driving 2 hours back and forth to go to their clinic.

February 2015I used to have crooked nose. It always bugged me, and after consulting couple of clinics, I decided to go to T Plastic Surgery. I tried to fix the crookedness, straighten it and work on the tip. The doctor was very nice and helped me get a very pretty and natural-looking nose. When I went for counseling, there were people, who had already gotten the surgery, and they all looked so wonderful and happy (which is why I decided to get the cosmetic surgery). Later, I found out that this place is really famous to people wanting to get their nose job done again. Both the doctor and the counselor were very nice. Thank you! I used to get getting a picture of my profile, but these days I only take pictures of my profile. The first picture is before the surgery.
