wonder if he discussed the scar with the doctor prior...

Hopefully they gave you some good meds.

No meds.

Damn girl!

Wtf. What happened?

When they taught him to take "wide margins", he by god took it to heart!!!! Best way to get clean margins though. Attagirl!!!!

I saw the pics on FB. Makes my head hurt thinking about it. Get well soon.

OUCH! Hope it heals quickly and invisibly.

Very little pain. Lots of swelling and bruising.


but you can bet next time I go in when strange spots are much smaller.

Ouch Deb that don't look nice. Prayers for quick healing with no scars!

I use to tell my kids when they were small and got hurt that " Heck, I've had worse than that on my eye-ball" but couldnt do it on this boo boo. That had to hurt.

WOW!

Tank Branded You ! !




You know i hope all the best for you ..

Hope you heal quickly and feel better!

Damn,,,, Best wishes!!!

Damn Mrs T, hope you feel alright!

Tomorrow, I can drink again. Right now, only allowed Tylenol. Luckily, the nerve block is still hanging in there. I hate the swelling. Ice packs for me.

Mrs. Tank...all possible wishes for a speedy and full recovery.
Look into topical arnica cream. It is a simple homeopathic treatment for the reduction of scars. Apply liberally, and especially while swelling is worst.
Not a miracle cure, but with consistent use, can and often will reduce visible scarring. MY ex-GF had a daughter get lymph node surgery on her neck...the cream made a huge difference in the healing. You can barely tell she went under the knife.

+1 on those sentiments!!!

The closing was done by a plastic surgeon. I've seen some of her work so I have high hopes. The problem stems from what she was given. The wound was the size of a half dollar. She did pretty well considering. Still very little pain. Swelling around the eyes is the worst, and I have natural eyeshadow for a few days (shiners).

I normally wear bangs, so many people didn't even know I had a spot, so I'm anticipating the scar will be covered more or less the same. I'm not a vain person, so I can live with what I end up with. There are so many worse things that I could have had to deal with. This is very minor, in my mind.
