They look great to me from the pic! My steristrips didn't come off for 5 weeks! Your scars look better than mine! Doing anything special to them?

He took mine off at my post op appt. they are completely closed. He wanted me to keep them moist. I am using neosporin. It helps with the mild pain and itching.

I didn't have steristrips, my surgeon used a skin glue, which started peeling and finally came off, The 18th of this month will be one month post op for me

I have to say I am pleased. Historically I keloid especially on my shoulders. I did not keloid with my c-section incision, but I did with my breast reduction. So these are looking like they may heal minus keloids. All I can say is I m thankful for that!

I'm also almost 3 weeks post op and your look so much better. I still have a scab on one of mine. And the one they had to make for my hernia repair is forever irritated because it sits right under my bra.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
