Why did scar revision make my scars look worse? (Photos)

Asked By:Ginger8921 in Daytona Beach, FL

I did a scar revision a month ago, I had a small scar on my forehead and a tiny scar on my nose. I also had a chicken pox scar on my forehead that my doctor cut and attached it to the scar he was revising leaving it longer and most noticeable. The scar on my nose seems much deeper and more noticeable, is this normal, and will it get better? I am freaking out. I spent almos $5,000 trying to fix these scars and I am not happy with them at all. Please help!
