Dr. T spent 2 hours with my our first appt. going over everything and taking measurement. He made me feel sooo comfortable. I had complications after and he was on top of everything. I was not able to get to the hospital he worked at nd he called several times a day to check on me, He has the best bedside manner I have ever seen,and his surgical skills are amazing thin low incisions

I uploaded a new picture my scar looks horrible. I am having such a hard time dealing with this I spend alot of time crying. I saw a plastic surgeon today he told me I would never wear a two piece bathing suit again. I begged for an awnser apparently this can not be fixed. My pubic area is pulled up and two inches from my belly button, and even that is black and dead. I can't seem to get in the holiday spirit sometimes I even think I wish the doctors did not save me so I would never have had to look at my deformed body

Just read your post and I am so sorry about your result. Did you PS show any remorse for the situation? Did he have a reason why the scar was so high? I a having a TT and BL in 2 days and I'm so nervous. How is the pain?
