Asked By:SassyGal in New York, NY

My areola and nipple turned black and peeled off. I feel disfigured! I've spent 18K on these surgeries to look this awful! Will this area regenerate areola skin or an ugly scar? What can I do? I really didnt want to have to have another surgery to put a skin graft. I also feel that both breasts are uneven and different shapes. The right looks significantly bigger. I had breast lift/augment surgery on 10/21/2014 I just feel hideous!! He is taking care of me but is this malpractice?
