I’m writing this in hopes it helps those who are worried because of the anesthetic injection before surgery ^^ I’m such a scaredy-cat, so before the surgery I couldn’t sleep well and even had nightmares lol I couldn’t even breathe evenly, and I kept thinking maybe I should just not do it~ Anyway, it was total chaos~ Even right before the surgery, I was so, so scared that I thought about doing sedation anesthesia, but the doctor said, "If you want, we can do sedation anesthesia, and after the eye anesthesia is done, we can wake you up. But the injection in your arm for sedation anesthesia will probably hurt more than anesthetizing your eyes~^^;" Since I’m easily swayed lol, I chose local anesthesia without hesitation. Well, the anesthesia method may differ by hospital~ First, they put in eye drops used for LASIK surgery. They said it anesthetizes the eyeball. After that, they disinfected the eyelid, "Okay, now I’m going to give the injection. Don’t be scared at all^^ The anesthetic solution is lower than body temperature, so it will only feel a bit tingly, and when the needle goes in, it will just sting slightly. The needle is thinner than a hair, so you’ll be okay~ Nurse, please hold her hand~ lol" I thought, this is it, I’m dead so I gripped the nurse’s hand tightly. They said if I tense my eyes it would hurt more, so I focused my strength somewhere else lol Huh? What’s this? It really didn’t hurt at all~ I got injections with the eyelid flipped over and on top of the eyelid~ It may differ from person to person, but even a scared person like me didn’t find it painful~ How should I put it, it hurt less than squeezing a pimple lol Trust me~! After the anesthesia was done, I thought I’d gotten over one hurdle lol They said if I didn’t tense up, it would be over in 20 minutes, so I relaxed my mind as much as possible lol Was it Jung Sun-hee’s Afternoon Hope Song? I listened to the radio while getting the surgery lol It was really comfortable~ and I loosened up. During the surgery, while they were stitching, tying knots, and cutting the thread? That’s the only sound you hear, and you don’t feel anything at all~ lol Oh, I had a partial incision procedure ^^ Did it take about 30 minutes? Once the surgery was over, I thought, that was no big deal, and at the same time, ‘So this is why celebrities get plastic surgery like it’s eating a meal’ that’s what I thought lol Try not to look in the mirror right after surgery lol It really turns you off hahahaha It looks exactly like Vienna sausages placed on top of your eyes lol It’s only been 2 days since surgery, so there’s still a little swelling and bruising left~ But I think time is the medicine^^ If becoming pretty were easy, everyone in the world would be beautiful lol This may not have been much help, but the one thing I want to say is~ once you’ve made up your mind, don’t waver~ It really doesn’t hurt at all ^^ Plastic surgery still has only a negative image stuck to it, so honestly, more than worrying about pain, I was more bothered by other people’s gazes and things like that~ "She got pretty because she had plastic surgery~ What, they say she got everything redone" Comments like that are honestly all because they’re jealous, aren’t they lol Whether you were born pretty or became pretty through surgery, in the end it’s the same, right? lol If the desire to become a little prettier leads to addiction to plastic surgery, that could be a problem, but I think it can be a good opportunity to heal someone’s complex and gain confidence. As you read this, some of you may wonder why I’m writing such a long post just because I had one double eyelid surgery lol but for me, there was a lot of thought before deciding on this surgery^^ I rambled on in case there are people like me~ Don’t be afraid, and everyone, become prettier ^^ Everyone, fighting~~!
