Anybody here living with facial disfigurement after surgery for cancer?

How do you deal with it?

The feeling of embarrasment (and sometimes disgust) about how I look now. People who stare then quickly turn away once their curiosity has been satisfied. Perhaps this is all just in my head.

I have curtailed my social life and do not like going out to crowded places and do chores like supermarket shopping at night when it is quiet.

Can anyone point me to any good sources of information on the subject.

Both from a psychological angle and the physical angle perhaps somehow covering up or masking the area.
