Title: Question regarding chin/jaw bandage
Post by: crowcrow223 on October 25, 2013, 05:29:36 AM
Hello, I've got a question to those of You who have undergone chin and jaw contouring FFS procedure. How long did you have to wear the pressure bandage around your head and jaw? I am talking about the one that one is supposed to wear after taking off the bandages and stuff. I saw one of the girls wearing it, who had her surgery with dr Chettawut, but I presume others also require that... let me know anything you know about it:)

Hi there, according to Ms. Som from Dr. Chet's office, you have to wear the compression bandage for 6 to 8 weeks after surgery.  I'm not looking forward to that part ick :(.  I'll be getting my chin+ in late JAN.

Good Luck :)

Thank You so much for the answer. I'm consulting doctor Chet now in regard of few surgeries I'll be having but since three weeks I haven't got any response from them :( Don't know why. 6 to 8 weeks, okay... What is the minimum period of time You have to stay in Thailand if You're having your chin, jaw and breasts done? Thanks so much!
