Hi, I have just had surgery for a s.c.c. by a plastic surgeon who cut a Rhomboid Flap  on my right cheek. I had local anaesthetic only and as I had not researched the operation was completely shocked when I looked in the mirror. The s.c.c. was only small but the amount of flesh removed was large. As was the scar. I am to have the stitches out in 2 days and the scar has been sore, swollen and bruised. I am 67 and not a vain person but worried about it not healing well
