Removing Nailpolish?



Recommended Posts

Yes, but how long will it take to remove? and do you think that the hospital is equipped with pure acetone for removing the shellac nail polish?

I almost want to say they only need one finger nail with light nail polish or no nail polish. But then again every hospital is different.

When I remove mine at home I can do all nails in 15-20minutes. Its never been a problem for me.

Sannah, I do mine at home as well. I was referring to whether the dr. would be willing to go thru the hassle of finding the acetone and waiting the 15-20 min. for the polish to come off.

Hi everyone, as it turns out, they DID want it off but they did't have pure acetone. I took the polish off my toes as a gesture of good will, but they were able to use the finger sensor without problems. :)

Thank goodness because my nails break and peel, shellac is the best stuff!

Glad you are on your way to recovery.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
