Hi GabyE,
Sounds good glad it seems to be working for you :) I am so worried that I will end up the same as last time! I hope I am wrong. I do think looking at my pics from the first incision at this timeframe 3 months post op the scarline now looks way better it looks more like my 9+ month pictures from before.
I have done two treatments of the dermaroller as of today. I rub super cop cream into the area for two days and lacsal serum into it on the third day then silicone sheets 24/7 (except showering) then reapeat after a week from the first derma roll.
I dont know if this method is correct but my scar looked much better right before the second treatment.
Fingers crossed I will keep you posted and I will put up some pictures soon.
Best of luck with your treatment and also keep me posted x
Hi congrats on your surgery and on your weightloss well done. Can you tell me more about the copper peptides? I am 3 months post op from a tummy tuck scar revision the actual TT was done 5 years ago but the scar turned out bad. I have bought copper peptides serum and supercop cream and I use silicone sheets 24/7.
I have not yet begun the CP treatments can you tell me how you treat yours with the CP's?
Many thanks x
hello, I was also the same as you never ever happy with my TT. I had dogears and a wide red thick high scar. I sent more time trying to hide the scar than I did my tummy before the TT. After numerous attemps to improve my results (lipo to flanks twice, laser to scar, multiple scar treatments, dog ear removal) I eventually gave in afet 5 years and went to a board certified plastic surgeon (original one was not a plastic surgeon just a general trading as cosmetic!!) and had my scar lwered by 2 inches. I am only 9 days post op but already I can see a huge improvement. Sorry for the long post but to answer your question yes you can eventually get a redo as my skin was so tight but after about 1-2 years it loosened and eventually by the time of revision I was able to pinch an inch :)
Also I would like to say your scar looks great and your shape is also beautiful I did not have that so you may get to 1+ year post op and find that your scar has faded nicley and maybe you could get some small flowers or something tattooed over them? Just a thought. best of luck with your decision I know how frustrating this can be xx
Thank you for giving your professional opinon Doctors it is very much appreciated. As a marker on the before picture if you see the freckle on the leg just above the panties well the scar now lays literally just aboove that so even though the top of my scar is now attached down that low and my bb was never moved I am just miffed as to how the distance is still the same. I know I am obsessing lol. Thank you for all your kind words.
