Bad scarring under chin & terrible fat transfers to cheeks
ORIGINAL POST
Bad Scarring Under Chin
Extremely bad scarring under chin. Impossible to fix. All home surgeons are refusing to touch it. I did this in 2018. Also received a forehead reduction which went well, but terrible fat transfers to cheeks.
I wrote a very lengthy explanation, that took me two hours to write, but it disappeared when I tried to publish it! I’m not writing another one.

Bad fat transfers to cheeks
So much fat was added to my cheeks that I lost my face in the process. Don’t let doctors persuade you to do things you never asked for. Ever. Learn from me.
Sadly I lost myself during this surgery. It was suppose to be something that added something natural, but overall the results were terrible. As I age the fat will diminish, but it’s hard seeing pictures of how pretty I used to be and how this surgery ruined things. I hide in the shadows nowadays. Still, at least I didn’t die!
It’s perhaps worth pointing out that I am cisgender. I have often thought that they added fat to my cheeks like they would have done on a male skull that was transitioning I.e a lot more than what was needed and slightly lower than where is should have been for an existing female skull. But I can’t be sure.
All of them were lovely people (the main reason I agreed to the fat transfers) but ultimately I was unlucky.

Missing my old neck
Every day I’m learning to live with the results of my botched surgery in B.A. why did I do it? Why didn’t I say no to the fat transfers I didn’t need - now when I smile, one eye is squished shut, whilst the other one stays open. My neck is a shambles. The scar was pulled too tight at one end, so creates unnecessary banding. The scar creates a deep groove that is constantly apparent as the skin hangs low under my chin. I have a lot of plastic surgery and nearly all of it has resulted in problems: I’ve had lipo with huge dents and wonky breast implants. None of it was worth it. In fact I feel extremely ashamed. But at least I can hide those things. My neck and ridiculous comic chipmunk cheeks are something can not hide. I’m trying to get therapy to deal with this surgery and learn to live like this, but it is not easy.
