your belly scars look like and are in almost the same spots as mine. But your belly looks so nice, I cant see any strechies!!!

Nice belly!

Looks just like mine too!

It's been almost two years since my surgery, and I used scar cream to help, but it didn't help with the bigger cuts (port and actual band), but it's totally ok, it's a good story to tell!!

And as for pesky stretchies, they begin to fade too, but still somewhat noticeable.

Good luck!!
