How do I find hope after a botched breast lift? Will someone take my case? Where do I start?

Rsmith175Jan 20, 2015
I am very overwhelmed. I had poor scarring, spread aerolas after bad benelli breast lift. I dont have saggy breasts though. I hate the permanent sutures. How do I find a doctor who can fix this? Are there are hopes to look better? Are some things unfixable? I don't even know where to begin, what questions to ask etc., I am worried about nipple necrosis, nipples being too high, scars or aerolas spreading again- should I explant? Any advice considered. Do docs like to do redos or are they scared?

Good question.  Being on an antidepressant is not a contraindication to undergoing breast augmentation surgery.  It is very important to give your surgeon a complete list of the medications that you are taking, including any herbal and homeopathic substances.  Once your surgeon reviews this li...
