I went to a pretty well known doctor in south Florida who told me he could help me with my facial scars. He picked the most expensive treatment, surgical scar removal. I had a very tiny scar on my nose and a scar on my forehead from falling down 9 years ago. I had a chicken pot scar next to the scar on my forehead which he also cut and attached to the scar which made the scar on my forehead much longer! The scar on my nose in now much more indented then it was. Is all of this normal? I am freaking out, I spent a lot of money and I feel like the results just made everything look worse. I am about one month post op and would appreciate some feed back. I am extremly depressed over this, especially since the forehead scar is longer, now it is very hard to hide it with my hair.

I went see my doctor today, he still told me do not put anything on the scar except regular lotion without Vitamin E . This is the period that collagen will keep growing on the scar and pulling 2 edges together. Leave it naturally so the dent part or depressed part will grow to flat . Next period, when collagen stops the production, might be able to use some treatment. If using any vitamin E will disencourage the cell to produce collagen and that is not good for depressed scar. Wish info is useful! Thank you

Had a follow up appointment today, I'm afraid I was being over dramatic in the first review. Doctor Man used a filler on my scar on the nose today which showed much improvements. Looking at pictures from post surgrey the chicken pox scar was right next to my scar on the forehead and is not so much indented now. Also followed up on the breat augmentation he did, and it looks amazing. I want to thank doctor man for havin so much patience with me, I know I'm a hand full!! I'm going to continue to see him because he is very understanding and really knows what he is doing. I would most def recommend him to family and friends.
