During my first surgery, I didn't think much of it, but I was actually more worried about the revision surgery. I couldn't sleep, so I was browsing this community and got startled when I saw a post saying to avoid the hospital where I was scheduled to have surgery. I was seriously worried whether I should cancel even now.. On top of that, I was the last time slot.. I worried the director might be tired. Still, I went to get the surgery with a “whatever happens, happens” mindset. When I told the director my requests again, he readily said he understood and that it was possible. When I said I had a fear of sharp objects, he said he would take that into consideration and be careful too. He spent a really long time on the pre-op design. The surgery was... painful I woke up after sedation anesthesia, and I could feel all the stitching and pulling. Now that the anesthesia is gradually wearing off after the surgery, it hurts quite a lot. My first surgery was non-incisional double eyelid surgery, so there wasn't much pain, but an incision definitely hurts, there is bleeding, and it swells a lot. My eyes are only half open right now, but I think the line isn't bad. Later, when the swelling goes down, if it looks okay, I'll bring photos
