Looking for a plastic surgeon in the Baltimore, MD area....
Just came home from my one year visit to the Bariatric doctor. He and his nurse practitioner said that I'm doing terrific!
Because I have a lot of celluloid scarring from the open surgery and because it itches and irritates me, they have suggested that I shop around for a good plastic surgeon who can inject my skin with something to help soften the celluloid tissue. I am also experiencing irritation from the sagging skin on skin, and they suggested finding someone who is known for her/his expertise in the area of body sculpting.
Now, I know this is a touchy subject for some but I'm not looking for negative input here. I'm not even sure if I could afford to have such a thing done; but if I could, it would make me feel more comfortable in my own skin, not to mention the boost of self-esteem. I'm tired of having to wear either baggy clothes to hide or girdle to hold all the flab tightly together. And yes, I am exercising. I've lost well over 100 lbs altogether as I lost 40 lbs prior to surgery and the rest afterward.
Anyway, can anybody recommend a good plastic surgeon who's reputation is well-known in a positive way?
Thanks! :)

Why would that be a touchy subject? I used to live in Baltimore but I don't have any recommendations. I applaud the hard work you put in!!-
