Asked By:Ddrr123 in White Plains, NY

I went to a PMU to do a scar camouflage on lift scars, she promised the world but she ruined my body. My mental health is suffering.Laser oxidized in a test spot due to titanium dioxide. I've had 2 plastic surgeons suggest an areola reduction/a purse string and external stitches to prevent spitting. I'm seeing mixed reviews on areola reduction & i have heavy breast. I should mention I will be having kids soon but having a hard time living with this ink. Please help.
