largest incision problem



Recommended Posts

All my incisions are doing great except, of course, the largest one that is just above my belly button. I'm eight weeks out and still have occaisional clear drainage. It's also puckered in like another belly button and looks quite ugly. Dr. Aceves said it's no problem since there is no infection, but I'm concerned it will always look like this. Ohhh the vanity.... Can anyone make me feel better about this?:thumbup:

I didn't have any trouble with the drainage from that incision; I would think one it quits draining and heals up you could put VitaminE oil or coco-cream on it and it may help with the scar tissue. Sorry I'm not much help!

It will be fine, I had a lap scar from a surgery yrs ago and it faded away and nearly disappeared. With the weight loss it will be even less visible
