Dr. Reagan Anderson of Colorado Dermatology Institute Dr. Anderson caused facial disfigurement and a large scar on my face after simple procedure Colorado Springs Colorado

In September of 2012 I was scheduled to have a skin cancer biopsy done on my cheek after my families urgency to resolve the question, "Does she have skin cancer?". I was apprehensive but I researched online and thought, from all of the medical articles I read, that this procedure would result in a possible small scar and healing time of 6-12 months. I understood that; I did not go into this appointment thinking that I was going to walk away perfect. 

Dr. Anderson decided to biopsy the predetermined mole but also wanted to do one more small bump where my dimple was. Big mistake. First, he went too deep with the shave biopsy. You could fit a small marble in my face. I immediately got depressed but was willing to deal with the shock of such a large scar as long as it healed well. I thought he knew what he was doing, he was nice after all. 

It will be two years now and the scar is horrendous. It is still red, angry, raised all around the edges, and massively indented in the center. It basically looks like a volcano that has erupted. On my cheek, for the world to speculate about. Now, I am not saying that I expected it to turn out great or completely normal again. However, Dr. Anderson did not perform the procedure correctly by going extremely deep, nor did he advise me of what to expect. 

I would give anything besides my soul to go back to that day so I could avoid Dr. Anderson's office. There is no big fix. My personal life suffers, my intimate life suffers, my public life is near non-existent, and my self-esteem is nearing the bottom of the bottle. The Colorado Springs public needs to know not to give their skin, their appearance, over to Dr. Anderson. He just might ruin you.
