This is where my journey began to go wrong. That PS wrote this was a 'satisfactory result'. These photos are in the 'canada' album and password for that one is 'medial thigh'. I was told I was making too much out of it to be upset. With the pubic hair out to the red scar lines at 3 months post....what do you think? These are quite graphic.

The lift as far as saggy skin looks nice, but I see what you are saying about the scar. It seems too low.

I'd still push the surgeon to see if he can revise and raise that scar up. The scar will lighten too, but maybe it could be helped some with laser, for both scar lightening, and killing the hair follicles so you don't have pubes showing below the panty line. 

I hope you have some luck getting the results you want.

I'm w/ Bearmom, the results do look good w/ the exception of the scar placement. It does seem very low. Mine is right in the crease of the leg so it can't be seen when wearing underwear or a bikini/bathing suit bottom. Not sure if the Dr. can do anything about the hair or color of the scar. PS doesn't get rid of the hair and everyone scars differently but my opinion it should be higher so it is hidden.

Don't quote me, but my Dr. just told me if the skin is pulled too tight then the labia stretches. That is a sign of not tacking into the bone, I think the surgery wasn't done correct. I could be completely wrong but this is what I learned from my Doctor.

Ok so I'm new to ps,I wouldnt consider these as satisfactory. I would be very upset. May I ask where you had your ps done? Medial thigh will be my 2nd surgery. But, seeing your pics will make me ask a few more questions. Thank you for sharing.

Your thighs look great. The scar placement is not good. They should be in the folds/crease of your groin. I would be very unhappy with this. I hope you can have a successful revision.

Is the hair that is above the line your upper thigh or did he pull your labia down that far? Either way, he should have brought your thigh scar all they way to your crease instead of the top of your thigh like that. Good scar placement at the crease shouldn't be seen like that. If I were you I'd go to another surgeon just to get another opinion.
