I paid a total of 3.8 million won
for the full arm + floating area (3.5 million won) + posterior convex area (300,000 won).
Excluding the 10,000 won I paid for the first consultation fee , I paid 3.79 million won! If you use a card or bank transfer, 10% VAT will be added separately. The price is like this, and
to get to the point, it's been 6 days since the surgery, so
I came here to leave a live review in case there are people who are curious
before I forget
. It was a surgery at 10 a.m. on the day of the surgery, so I came to the hospital by 9:40 a.m. and
was told to take off my clothes first.
Is the chest a white gauze sticker? They told me to put on the same thing, put on disposable thongs, a top that looked like a skirt, put on a gown over it, and
wash my face after I got dressed
. After that, they measured my InBody, took a pre-surgery photo, and measured the size of the compression garment with a tape measure. And the treatment room? Go to the same place and put a needle in your ankle first. Ankle bone on the inside of the ankle? If you look at the same spot, there is a thick vein, and he injected it there. I was so scared because it was my first time getting an injection
, but I couldn't even feel the needle going in.
I really didn't feel anything. They put in a needle, take some blood for a blood test, and tape the wall to block the needle hole.
Then, when you sit back in the lobby, you go into the director's room for one more consultation, sign everything you need to sign, and the director creates a design on your body. After everything is finished, I go back to the lobby, pay the surgery fee,
stop by the restroom, and then enter the operating room.
As soon as I entered, I sat down on a chair, connected an IV needle to my ankle, and sprayed red disinfectant in a spray bottle.
They said they warmed it up for me because I was afraid of being cold. The disinfectant was warm, but the air was cold, so my body felt chilly.
After spraying it all over my arms and upper body, I wore it. They tell you to lie down on the operating table with your thongs pulled down to your thighs.
When you lie down on your stomach with your arms spread out, they spray more disinfectant evenly and use green surgical cloths? As I was lying
down, the director came in and covered my face with something like a towel. He said the
anesthetic would be administered right away. At the beginning of the surgery, I wondered why they were covering my face with a towel, but I came to my senses in the middle of the surgery. It seemed like they were undergoing surgery, but when I came to, I was embarrassed and couldn't think of anything. I was wondering how to let them know that I woke up, but I felt like a cannula was being stabbed in my right arm. Maybe it was because I
was under anesthesia, but it didn't hurt, but I got goosebumps and immediately screamed, "Aww, it hurts." So, they immediately added more anesthetic, and when I woke up, I was in the recovery room. Since
I didn't have a guardian, I asked the director before the surgery if it was okay to recover enough to recover, and the director said of course it was okay, so I don't know how long I was sleeping. I was
distracted by the operating room nurse checking my condition. I think I've come back a little bit. Obviously, the bed was very warm and the blanket was cotton, but I was so cold that I was shaking and my hands and feet were so cold.
The nurse touched my hands and feet and gave me a hot pack.
Then, she helped me up to take me to the bathroom, but I got up three times and immediately fell down on the bed because of the weakness. The nurse said it was okay and helped me go to the bathroom, but when I was washing my hands, there were marks on the backs of my hands where I had been shot. After the surgery, they said they would draw blood from the other ankle while I was sleeping and do another blood test, but that failed, so I think they may have put an injection into the back of my hand. Anyway, I
was helped again and put on the bed, so they removed the needle that was first inserted into my ankle, and put ice in the Pocari and put a straw in it to make sure I was thirsty. They were really kind in feeding me.
And since I was fat, I had to take the bus again, so I had to reserve a bus ticket, but they brought my cell phone and a whole bag of clothes from the locker to the recovery room.
Since I was in a dazed state, I could reserve a bus between about 4-5 o'clock. They let me know and checked once more what time I had booked
and told me I could change my clothes. As I was changing my clothes in a half-asleep state, I think the manager came over and had a chat with me. Since
I wasn't dressed properly, he helped me change my clothes. Everyone was kind. He said that.
After getting my prescription, he told me that there was a pharmacy on the first basement floor, that I could take the medicine there, and that it was connected to the subway station, so I could take the subway straight to the terminal. Although I stumbled, luckily I found everything and went to the terminal. Haha.
As soon as I got on the bus, I was so sleepy that I fell asleep again. I woke up and suddenly got so much motion sickness that I almost died. I
barely fell back asleep and came back to life... haha
I think the surgery started around 10:40 AM, but judging by the fact that I took the bus back at 4:20 PM, I recovered quite a bit after the surgery. I think I came back!!
I was surprised that the pain wasn't as much as I thought.
I've tried removing fat from the inner and outer thighs using liposuction, liposuction, and fat grafting under the chin, but in order of pain,
the order seems to be thighs > face > arms.
I think the arms are less painful because I don't have to move them.
But on the first day. It didn't hurt at all, but as I slept, the pain was unpleasant, so I had a bit of trouble sleeping. After I woke up, ate, and took medicine, the pain disappeared again. It hurt more than I expected. It was a bit surprising.
My body gets bruised really easily, but there were less bruises than I thought, and they were already going to go away to some extent, but my entire arm turned yellow. There are still purple bruises here and there. but.
The bruising is okay, but the swelling is huge. When I wear a compression garment, the swelling goes down to my hands and the backs of my hands turn into Doraemon's hands.
My hand is so swollen that it feels a bit stiff... I hope the swelling goes down quickly. It's still too early to talk about the surgery results because of the swelling, but there doesn't seem to be any dents or bumps, so I think the swelling will just go away!!
Oh, and I thought it would be better not to forcefully raise my arms and do things like that. Even though I was in pain, I forcibly raised my arms to tie my hair, and the stitches inside my armpits opened slightly. It was fine
when I took off the bandage to disinfect it in the beginning, but when I tried to tie my hair, it was slightly open. Hahaha,
you need to apply Fucidin diligently. Those of you who are in the business, don't force your arms up like that.
I want to quickly pull out all the stitches and take a cool shower!!!
Since it's only the 6th day, I think it's too early to talk about the progress, so
I wrote a review focusing on what happened on the day of surgery rather than the surgery progress! I was really curious about this before the surgery, but I couldn't find it when I looked it up.
I don't know if there's anything I'm curious about, but I hope it helps!!
Let’s all hope the surgery is successful haha
