Asked By:LAJ223 in Columbia, South Carolina

December 18, 2020 emergency laparotomy procedure (midline) was performed. Wound wasn’t close with any structures, staples etc it was a open wound that close up over time on its own with proper care. I currently use silicone strips to help the appearance and prevent keloiding. What would be the best option for my case to help with the appearance of abdomen area?
