If you are asking this question then you know in your heart you don't have a good plastic surgeon. When in doubt GET A SECOND OPINION! See your doctor (not the plastic surgeon) and ask his opinion or check out good plastic surgeons and interview them. People don't realize they can actually interview plastic surgeons and if they don't like them the patient has the right to move on. There are other areas of the body that a plastic surgeon can take fat or skin from where it won't be noticed and a good plastic surgeon does this. I am sure you have seen on TV the horrific scars and women's/men's lives being ruined by poor plastic surgery. You can take fat from anywhere in the body so I have no idea why he/she is making more of a mess of your face. Good for you that you came to this site and asked! Also, go onto: www.Google.com TYPE IN: Chat-lines for plastic surgery after cancer You can get a lot of support from these chat-lines and also feedback as to what has happened to other people that may help you with your decision. If you are male then please don't feel embarrassed. No one on the chat-line will know who you are. Good luck & God Bless
