dblaisde Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) I'm 67 and it's showing, especially under the eyes. I'd like to get some modest plastic surgery for this. Can anyone recommend a hospital or doctor in Bangkok? I'm starting from scratch. I know it's a very short procedure and quick recovery. What about the price? Risks? Final result and long term effectiveness? Thanks... Edited February 5, 2014 by dblaisde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Dr. Amorn poomee at Bumrungrad is tops, but expensive. the procedure for removal of bags under the eyes is called blepharoplasty there have been threads on this before, try a search of this forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifthcolumn Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Do you have a guestimate about the price? I am hesitant to trust my face to a Thai doctor. The upper and lower are different procedures correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 By upper and lower I take it you mean face lift, not blepharoplasty which is what the OP asked about. And yes, facelifts can be lower, upper, or total. Face lift costs vary greatly by doctor. With Dr. Amorn (about the most expensive in Thailand but for good reason) it is I think now over 200 K. Possible to get one done at half that amount but not by him. Personally I do not think getting plastic surgery done on the cheap is at all a good idea...you get what you pay for. Bleph of course is less expensive than face lift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifthcolumn Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Thanks, upper and lower, just the eyes to remove the skin. My neck is getting loose though, really bugs me. I would consider 200k for that quite ok by a good doctor. Never consider cheaping it out, in fact hesitant to let Thai doctor touch my face. By the time I'm ready, he will be retired. Thank you.

darth31 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 The guys that is against taking care of their appearance is either scared to do it or does`t have the money to do it. I not see any downsides to look 5-10 years younger than i am and it opens for a wider scale of options so to speak. Go for it is my recommendation, you can only look younger then now and it last for 5 to 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotary Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 IMHO opinion I would never get cosmetic surgery anywhere in the world unless I had major issues from a car accident or something. Remember that Hip Hop artist Kayne West. He mother died after cosmetic surgery from heart disease but the surgery is thought to have increased the risk. The major point is no matter how small, surgery can cause problems. I also understand my sex appeal is in my pocket anyway so cosmetic stuff would make little difference in that area of my life.

yimlitnoy Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Lower and upper Blepharoplasty are done under full anesthetic or local anesthetic? I am not of a type of courageous woman and I wonder if it is painful and about the discomfort during the chirurgy? Recovery is how many days before going to work in public?

Blepharoplasty Lower Blepharoplasty Lower Blepharoplasty http://www.drpoomee.com/home/eyelid-surgery Surgical Procedure: The type of anesthesia used will be determined by the desires of the patient and the judgement of the doctor. Surgery usually is performed under local anethetic with sedation. Therefore the patient is comfortable and sleepy throughout the procedure. The incisions on the upper lid are usually placed in the fold of the eyelid. The incision on the lower eyelid is placed just under the eyelid margin. Sometimes, the fat can also be mobilized to fill depressed area. The excess skin and excess fat are removed and the incisions are sutured.

gazzasore Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 If your Body is is sagging Your Body is lacking Copper Copper will give your skin and Mussels its bounce again It will also fix up Hemorrhoids as well they just go away And may prevent Strokes Colloidal Copper is the best Absorbed by your Body But Pill form work too Not thousands of $$ Less than $100 should fix you up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 The above is nonsense. No matter what, some loss of elasticity and sagging occurs with aging. Copper does not make hemorrhoids "go away", nor prevent strokes. Note that too much copper can be toxic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuipie Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Thailand continues to be the number 1 medical destination in the world. Thai surgeons are internationally recognized for their exemplary work. When it comes to surgery NEVER go for the cheapest!! Anything can happen during a surgical procedure, you want the back-up. I recommend Bumrungrad Hospital in BKK. I have had several successful surgeries there. Dr. Teerasap is a miracle worker. But anyone on their staff is highly qualified. Good luck and always be proud of anything that supports your self esteem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
