Do surgeons ever refund the money if the result is terrible? (photos)

Asked By:alli_104 in Toronto, ON

I had rhinoplasty 3 months ago. There was a complication and now the front view of my nose is crooked/assymetric and ruined to say the least. I spent years saving up for this surgery and now I have no money to fix this horrible botched job. I need a revision so bad. Do surgeons ever refund this money? I'm just so hopeless right now. I regret surgery so much, all it did was make me depressed and 1000x more insecure. I payed for this to happen to me.. I get complications happen but it just sucks.
