Sorry for all you had to go through. Who did the successful corrective surgery?

yes but it didn't accomplish much. It cost 4,000. I paid another surgeon 5,000 to try again and while he did succeed at making the scar thinner and some improvement in the skin laxity and contour problems, those problems still exist. Now I am out of money and can not pay anyone to finish the work, although I am told that further revision is possible. I just have so much regret and this whole thing has taken such a toll on my life. I feel exhausted and severely depressed. I can not stand living in this body as it is. I don't know what to do. I have spend a lot of psychiatric/counseling care and tried various anti depressants as well....as a result of this well. I can not afford that kind of help anymore either. I feel like I am at the end of my rope.

I feel so awful.. THis surgery ruined my life.

Thanks BB...... I appreciate your kind words. And sending you sweet angels as well. Want to learn to love myself again... imperfections included. Sometimes it can be so hard.

The consult was very good.... he is a good listener. I had the procedure.... one side came out beautiful!! ... the other improved.. but still has problems. So I have a follow up on Monday and am hoping Dr Svelack is as compassionate when it comes to redoes. I'll let you know how it goes.
