I remember when I visited a plastic surgeon 5 years ago, I saw a lady patient sobbing outside his clinic. Oh, something might have gone wrong
with the surgery, I thought.

When I went into the room of the surgeon, I tried to find out what happened actually. “She was not mentally prepared to accept her appearance after the surgery. It is only temporary, I told her.”

It seemed that the lady had just undergone double eyelids surgery, her eyes inflammed and bruised. She was so worried that she couldn’t control her emotion. According to the surgeon, this is common as the skin cells take time to heal.

Lip augmentation or enhancement involves similar healing process. So, be prepared for the temporary healing phase which varies from one patient to another.

To avoid serious emotional outbreak of a patient, a professional clinic should perform a pshychiatric evaluation onto a prospective patient. In addition, necessary counselling would be given to the patient prior to the surgery.

Please follow the advices and instructions of the surgeon to ensure a proper recovery and enjoy the actual benefit of the surgery.
