Surgery scars

[Patientx]

Does anyone have visible surgery scars?

How do you deal with then in public/ in front of people?

Replies would be appreciated...!

Find some New Skin Scar Therapy gel. I just bought some for my face. I hear it works pretty good. Takes a few weeks though You can find it at the local pharmacy or Walgreens or soemthing.

i uaually wear a tanktop and when i take my shirt off nobody has said anything, i guess they think the scar is pimple or something.

Surgery sars are very minimal.  

Nobody will notice them. Trust me on this Dude!

are the scar healers that you put on like a band-aid work?

[youngster]

I heard the band aid kind is painful and you gotta wear it for hours. I'd recommend the gel, its clear silicone stuff.

The scars are very small and if you take care of them properly post-op (no suntanning while they are still pink) they will fade  almost entirely.

Scars after surgery depend on the problem to be treated, surgical techniques, skill of your surgeon, how you heal, scar care, after care, and other factors.

You can see many examples of scars after my sculpture here in this Nipple / Areola Gallery and the additional Gallery pages here, and here.

You can find many links to scar care products here.


Hope this helps,
