How long do I have to be in Taiwan?
Dear Pei:
I am sorry that your preferred dates have not been available at this moment. Would you please choose another time in Jan. or Feb.?
There are something important to know before your going to Taiwan:
It's better to notice me with e-mail two months before the time you are planning to receive the breast enlargement surgery, or else my operation schedule may be too tight to arrange appointment for you. When your operation date has been fixed up, I suggest you to visit my office one or two days before the surgery, then you can do the final check including the face to face consultation, physical examination and basic laboratory survey for your health condition.My planning and idea for your future breasts will be discussed in this appointment.
The laboratory survey includes blood examination. If the blood test showed evidence of a certain disease which may endanger your life during the surgery, the operation will surely be discontinued, but the probability is quite low if you have been generally healthy.
The medical diseases that may preclude you from breast enlargement surgery are the followings:
1. Uncontrolled hypertension
2. Diabetes
3. Severe heart disease
4. Clotting disorder of blood such as hemophilia
Besides, if you had a flu with cough, fever and sputum, the operation might be deferred until your symptoms improved.
Regarding to your payment, the cost of breast augmentation is 160,000NT$ in cash for endoscopic surgery. When your operation date has been fixed up, you have to wire me 50,000NT$ or the equivalent US dollars for the down payment. My account number will be mentioned in the future e-mail.
You had better stay in Taiwan for ten days to two weeks in order to be followed up closely in my office. After this period, you may return to work comfortably. But you have to persistently do the expansion exercise of breasts, the procedure will be instructed detailedly after the surgery, for at least 6 months to prevent the possibility of "capsular contracture" of breast implant. You also have to mail me about your postoperative progress and ask me questions whenever you are doubting about what happened to your breast or axillary scar or anything about the operation, even the trivial ones, so as to avert unnecessary sequelae. If you indeed do so, I think the result would still be contolled within the good to excellent level despite you are not able to be regularly examined by me in Taiwan..
Please give me a notification including your name, phone number, period you are planning to stay in Taiwan and the preferred date to do the operation, etc. whenever you made up your mind.
It's encouraging to receive an oversea message, and I am glad to answer more questions for you in the future.
Best regards
