Bleeding Accured After Punch Excision - Florida

CocoPuf spent $900 in Florida Updated 8 months ago

Right after my punch excision my sutures were secured with steri-strip and lots of bandages. Except when I got home I vomited really badly. I guess the procedure upset my stomach. They just used numbing creme during my procedure. My question is could the sutures come undone? I bled a lot through... Read more

Ugly Red Neck Scar

AngelDemon23 spent $2,500 in Santa Clara, California Updated 2 years ago

I had hyperparathyroid surgery over three years ago and ever since I have a 3.5 inch visible scar on my neck. The unfortunate part about it beyond the scar itself is that the surgeon never found the abnormal gland after a seven hour surgery. You can imagine that I was devastated. I have... Read more

Scar Revision NOT - Tampa, FL

justthefacts spent $2,100 in Tampa. Fl Created 9 months ago

Horrid experience. Why? I am convinced the plastic surgeon just did what made him the most money and NOT what would be the most effective. My scar was bound down, but the surface was otherwise smooth thanks in large part to my doing my own peels. But it was horribly bound down. Three times I... Read more
