I've had tt, and arm lift and breast lift. Those incisions look great and will heal beautifully. I used silicone scar tape. Be careful not to use Vitamin E. everyone will say to use it but they have done studies to see if it actually works and in several studies it has been shown to not only have zero effect, it can sometimes worsen scars. Mederma and regular lotions are equal but really are equal to doing nothing at all. It makes us feel better like we are doing something but you either are the type that scars one way or another. It has been proven that exposure to sun in the first year actually makes the scarring worse. I wish I had known that when I was younger and would tan after getting stretch marks thinking that would actually help.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
