How noticeable are the incisions three months after the surgery?

Mine pretty much match yours Laura-v. Except I still have 70 lbs to lose so my belly is bigger. :-/

I still have some to go too and something tells me the belly will get more and more squishy as it goes. But I like the "war wounds" that Arts said. I have been through life and these are part of my tale

They are not that bad I think. Have you used scar cream at all?

I've used mederma but not often enough I guess to make a difference.

I'm five months out. I have issues with my skin not healing well' date=' and I'm allergic to steri-strips and bandaid adhesive so they had to use just glue on me. I have a few spots that have bigger scars from scabs versus just the lines of the incisions. But I agree with laura-ven in terms of not trading them for being fat! I think I have stretch marks from fat that are worse than some of the scars. And they'll fade, or I will continue to not care. My flabby arms are going to be more of an issue (flying south could be an option)... and I'm working out regularly [/quote']

I'm allergic to adhesive too and had to be glued. One of my incisions got infected and didn't close. It has left a really big scar. The other five are fading nicely I am three months out.
