First off, Welcome to the site....Secondly, I felt compelled to reply to your post, because I can kind of relate to what you're going through. I'm going to give a skimmed down version of this story, because I want to encourage and/or help you here. In December, I had minor surgery to remove scar tissue from a gash on the cranium that had been there since the mid 1980s. That operation was successful....In April, I had surgery on the nape of the neck to prevent recurring boils and cysts that kept popping up back there. While both left small scars that are noticeable only if either someone looks up close or by another observant guy with a shaved head. The scars on most days do not bother me, but on the days that they do, a small dab of concealer does the trick....but even the small scars are an upgrade over what I had to deal with before, at least that's the way I feel...In your case, without a picture, I can't really tell you, but regardless, most dermatologists can recommend whether surgery is a viable option or not....even if you are not satisfied with the first one, second and third opinions won't do you any harm, especially if this is a surgery you feel you need to have to make you feel good about yourself going sly. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me, though I can offer better advice if you were to post a picture. Good luck, enjoy, and keep up posted!
