Hello Gordon,

I'm sorry you have to go through this again. I to was treated in 03 and have a reoccurance in the same area.
When I had my original surgery I had the ENT & a plastic surgeon do it. Seems like you might want to ask your doctor about that option. Seems easy enough to do once the surgery is complete. The plastic surgeon steps in and completes the job.

Best Wishes, Danny Boy
