Is there a surgeon out who can remove the permanent Gore-Tex suture from my benelli lift for a reasonable cost?

Asked By:caliwildrose in Los Angeles, CA

I can feel it under my skin. It causes burning sensations, itching, and sensitivity. I can't live with the discomfort anymore & want to have it removed. I know my areoles will stretch out but I don't care because my breast lift was botched and left me with ugly misshapen areolas anyway. I plan on getting a full lift in the future but I can't afford it now. Until I can afford a full lift, I just want the suture removed. My original surgeon is impossible to get in touch with so he's not an option.
