The scars never fully go away. There is frequently uneveness along the entire length of the scar. On the plus side, the sagging skin is improved, but as you age, it will sag again. Weigh your options carefully because scars are permanent and heal differently for everyone. People are always optimistic their outcome will be a total and complete solution for what bothers them -- but many more times, you just have a different set of issues brought on. Make sure you are going with a doctor who has credentials, university education, and hospital training SPECIFICALLY on the field of plastic and reconstructive surgery. Too many times, doctors taking on the title of PS or CS took supplemental medical courses in PS/CS and were originally dentists, optomotrists, podiatrists or any number of other unrelated medical specialties that DO NOT produce the same quality of surgeon/physician that a PS/CS-degreed physician has. The results are in line with their education and medical focus. Research if they have lost their license in any state and simply relocated to another state. FL is one of the worst (most liberal) in allowing doctors who practice any form of medicine perform PS/CS. Keep in mine state laws vary, and so do the licensing requirements in each state.
kaf123 - I have had bad lip to my arms as a result of botched surgery from a PS who has since was sued by other patients and lost his license. I have had fat injections, but the result was temporary and I still have significant uneveness on my arms and legs. I saw the Tribeca site but wanted to know if the costs to fly, board, and operate were out of my reach. Can you share that info as much as you are comfortable please? Thank you!
