Breast lift scar revision care? (Photo)

Calm532847Jul 22, 2024
I’m planning to have scar revision surgery after having a breast lift a year ago. Although my surgeon did a great job at leaving a really thin scar, after the tape fell off the scar opened and became wider. My skin tends to pigment easily due to my latin heritage. I’m interested in any products that can help support the incision and ensure that the scar stays close for longer to avoid previous result.
