Hi,

I am a new member and was looking for your advice.

I am coming to Thailand in Septmember / October and looking for a recommendation on where to go for dimple creation surgery? Ive read some threads and see Dr Nara is a possibility in Hat yai.

Has anyone had this surgery or have any advice for me?

Hi, i noticed that you posted this last year, have you already gotten your dimples done in Thailand? i am thinking of having one done in May this year...How long does it take before the 'hole' will START to mellow so it doesn't show when you are not smiling? hope your surgical experience was good..Thanks!!

Hi Star,

Yes i had it done at the Yanhee Hospital with Dr Suthat Koonnawarote, i am very impressed! It cost me in total around 21,000 bahts, i had a permanent dimple for around the first week then in week 2 it started to fade out, week 3 it only showed when i smiled. Once you first get them done they look a bit dramatic but that fades out and is alot more subtle. So my advice is if your looking for very prominent dimples is to advice the surgen before hand so he can take a larger biopsy area. I love mine.

If you want any more details about the proceedure etc at Yanhee just let me know. Also i notice that bangkoklaser.com do it for 10,000 bahts but i noticed this online and dont have any knowledge of them first hand

thanks very much for the information and sharing..I did not proceed to have the surgery as planned previously, I might consider doing it in December instead...by the way, did you get to choose whether you would like a rounded or an elongated shape? how many days was the bruising and swelling? would really appreciate your advice..

No he didnt mention them? Just asked me where i would like them then went over it with me. I'll try get some pictures up over the weekend and show you before and afters.

The swelling was for a few days, there wasnt any bruising just tiny little marks that looked like freckles but they dissapeared after about a week or two.

I wanted mine fairly prominent so i asked him this and he made two knots instead of just the one on each side so they were more noticable

hello Shelley, thanks for the very helpful info...would certainly love to have a look at yours!...of course, only if it is not too much of a trouble for you...

Hi Shelley, I am a new member. I am very keen on going for the dimple creation surgery. Heard that Dr. Nara charges are very low (only 4000 baht for dimple creation) and the results are not bad. Why didn't you go to him?

Hi Star, when are you planning to go hat yai? Perhaps we can arrange and go together as I do not want people around me to know but yet I don't have the courage to go alone.

hey babe, have u done urs? im planning to do mine in July. together with B.A

Hey, I have not done mine. Still deciding on the date. But heard his earliest appointment is Aug. Have you booked urs?

i have not booked mine yet. im still awaiting his e-mail reply... what abt u?

Hi Claire,
No, I've not booked for the procedure yet; wouldn't be doing it with nara, read feedback about her, some positive ones and the not so positive ones...i was thinking of Yanhee hosp but seem that they have been increasing their prices...ive made booking for flight to BBk on 04 Dec and returning on the same day; we could meet to go together if you don't find it too late

hey ladies... I'm thinking to do my dimples also.. now that BKK flights are dirt cheap, really feel like risking everything and do it there asap

Just wondering, will there be any pain afterwards? Sounds like a small surgery.. but I'm not sure what will be the complication afterwards...

Which doc are you guys going to? Same here, I've booked with Nara in August, but I think most probably I'd let it go

hey!

my bestfriend just had it done recently at Dr Nara. wonderful results. but his clinic is fully booked till Sept... sianz~

Hi Star, I remember seeing some not so positive feedbacks about yanhee, not any about Dr. Nara though, hence planned to do it at his clinic. Guess gotta think twice now. How much is yanhee charging for dimple creation? If not much of a diff then I don't mind going to yanhee. Dec is alittle late and is near to Chrismas and New Year, aren't you afraid it won't recover by then? Some took almost a month to heal... Im not planning to stay at BKK too, if possible, so it would be great if I could depart on the same day.

Hi tinklemepink, Dr. Nara has yet to reply my email. Star mentioned she read a few not so positive feedbacks about nara and she is heading to yanhee in Dec. What do you think?

Hi Xerox, I'm still not sure when I'm doing mine and which doc, just hope to do it asap. If you are keen then maybe all of us can arrange and go together.

a lil confusing now coz there are 2 Dr Nara. 1 in BKK, 1 in Hat Yai.
The Dr Nara from HatYai really charge a lot lesser coz his clinic sucks. it looks like a war torn zone with dusty bookshelves & creaking floorboards. i went once 2-3 years ago. (u get the picture...)

yanhee not bad lah...coz im on a tight budget,i was thinking of Dr Tokai or Bangkok Laser. their prices are cheap & they have rave reviews.

yeah we should arrange and go together. who knows can get group discount.hehehe (typical S`porean thiking)
