Today was a day like no other, because I observed my second live surgery but I don't know whether it was cool or disgusting, even with all the blood and incisions I wasn't really grossed out. The day started out with me getting to my mentor's office at around 8am just like usual. This time my mom gave me a ride because it was near her job. After I got to the hospital I waited in the lobby and then Dr. J came in a hurry just like always and all he said was," Surgery Let'a Go." So I just followed him to the other facility in a rush.
I was kind of a normal procedure because Of the fact that I had observed a surgery before. Everyone got in their surgical attire and after the anestiologist did all the formalities, I saw the patient and she was close to a 28 year old woman who wanted some fat grafting and some butt implants. I remember when the surgery started it was extremely cold in the room but the surgery required so much movement for the Doc that he was sweating. SO he kept turning up the A.C and I froze the entire surgery.
After the Doc completed the fat grafting, which you guys can read in my last blog, he flipped the patient on her back and used a heated pen like apparatus and began to cut through the skin where the butt crack starts and slowly he opened up the pockets of the patient's butt muscles. He said hat was the easiest part. After that he began to sterilize the implants and then he started to try to fit the implants in the opened butt pockets. This is the most difficult part of the surgery it due to the fact that a minor mistake can cost you a lot of time. For example it took him 46 minutes to put in the left implant and only 6 for the right only because he had a little size difference in the cuts. After the implants were in the doc took many different types of stitches and stitched up the patients' butt. Before I knew it a six hour surgery was done.
Overall the day was strangley normal even though I watched someones gluts get torn into half. I learned a lot of new things and also observed a very cool procedure, so
Peace Out
