No better after three years

$13

Had a macs lift three years ago with a neck lift and lower eye bags done I have been left disfigured unblock to eat or drink it hour food dropping out my mouth. Tight bands above my ears when I chew or yawn. My scars in front of my ears and above my ears took 8 months to finally heal. It has been hell. My eft cheek is so thick I is between my teeth so I'm biting it constantly.

I met him on the morning of my operation. The hospital was very clean and I didn’t look to bad. I had to return the next day to get the drains out. It was after then my face started to fill with blood. I had to go back down to theatreso he could find the bleed and stop I took a much longer time to heal.

Who was the surgeon and how much did it cost? There seems to be no Dr Gruman in Belgium and you've got the procedure listed for $13. Is the spelling correct?
Opinion is face nerve damage. Maybe see doctor who does nerve work for people suffering from bells, facial trauma, etc. they can maybe re establish the nerve so animation is restored
