Any advice on what to use to minimize the appearance of scars? I haven't had surgery yet but just thinking about what u all have done? Any creams or methods that you've used to minimize them?

Also do u have pictures?

I don't have pictures, but will take one for you to see what the scars look like 3 months out. They are much smaller than immediately post surgery already, so I don't think they are going to be noticeable after a year or so. I know my tubal scars were pretty much gone after about 2 years. The key is to make sure your surgeon is using skin glue instead of sutures for the skin layer when he closes. Generally they do, but it doesn't hurt to ask before surgery.

If anyone can tell me how to import a photo, I would appreciate it!

Hi and Merry Christmas. This picture I took last week two weeks out. I had two incisions.

i am 6 months out and my biggest scar was about 2 inches long and is a very faint pink now..barely noticable...the other4 incisions, you cant even see. truthfully, its not really worrying about.

I had 5 incisions. By 3 months post op I could only see 2.... And sometime in the last 24 months those have also disappeared. I didn't use anything.

Now that I have had my tummy tuck I will be buying some merdema cream to help this one along since it's hip to hip...but the dr said it should fade on its on within a year since I am past the collagen producing years.... But I am not taking any chances....lol
