What is the point to give $ to the surgeon. Why doesn't someone come up with a way to freaking get rid of acne scars. It is too much to deal with !! Why can't a surgeon figure out the two finger thing with no stretchback !! Why even have a facelift if it will not do anything ? What is the point to give $ to the surgeon.
