I had surgery with the buried suture method 5 days ago... But somehow, the line I wanted and the condition of my eyes felt so far apart... I spent the whole weekend just worrying. In the end, I booked another consultation at the hospital today and even went to see the doctor again... At one hospital, the doctor really preferred incision surgery, and when I went for a consultation once, he said I had some signs of ptosis and suggested doing it by incision from the start. After that, every hospital I went to said the buried suture method was possible, so I happily had the buried suture surgery 5 days ago. My left eye originally had a bit of a line, so we decided to keep the size as it was, and make the front shape of the eyes look natural as an in-out line. The doctor was also going to lift the outer corners slightly. Even though it was buried suture surgery, it seemed more swollen than I expected, and as I looked in the mirror alone at home, more than the swelling, the line was completely different from what I had imagined... I wondered if it was because of swelling... or if the design had been done wrong, so I went to the hospital... Today, after the doctor looked at it again... he said I have a little ptosis, and on top of that, for a patient who had buried suture surgery, my eyes are extremely swollen, so it is hard for me to open my eyes right now, and that is why my eyes do not look clear and defined. But he said the line itself was not placed incorrectly, so I should not worry... He said what would recover in 1 week for someone else might take 3 weeks for me... and told me to relax and wait just one month... He said the thing I was most worried about, the line being wrong, was not the case, and that the front and middle areas are areas that swell much more compared with the back and then go down... so I do not need to worry that the front is too puffy and round and that the natural line I wanted will not come out. Hearing that, I felt at least it was a huge relief... Still, he said I do have ptosis, though it is not severe... and that there would be no problem with opening my eyes once the swelling goes down... When I think about that too, I feel relieved that it is not a big problem... but then again... in a way, I also feel a little resentful toward the doctor for finding out about the issue so late. Something about it... right now I just feel uneasy, but I am trying to believe what the doctor said and, with a praying heart, I keep forcing open my eyes that still do not open comfortably... just waiting for time to pass... I wonder if I will need ptosis surgery again...-.- When on earth will all the swelling go down... Also... whether the headache from my eyes will ever stop hurting...-.- Whether I should go to another hospital and hear another doctor’s opinion... Please give me some advice...^ ^
