Scars Post-op

[whitneym912 8]

Hi all,

My surgery is schedule for the 15th of next month, and I am curious is anyone had any issues with their scarring after surgery. If ao, any products you used to minimize the scarring itself??

Thanks:)

Four years out and I can barely see my scars. There is only one that I can see easily. The incisions are small to begin with and then shrink and lighten with time. The one I can see is the "big" incision which was about 2" when it was fresh. Now it is less than 1" as a mature scar. Frankly the stretch marks on my stomach are way worse than my scars.
