Awake during facelift and I felt everything; is this acceptable?
CINZIA77Sep 24, 2016
I was awake during facelift+ Facial surgery. I told the Dr I was awake and he did not do anything. I felt every injection, slice of skin, and stitches. It was horrible. After the procedure, I told them of my ordeal. No person on the surgical team nor Drs had any remorse nor cared. They had hoped the Versed eliminated my memory but it did not. I am in agony over this, I have panic attacks and nightmares every night. Is this acceptable? I can not get past this without therapy. Please advise.
