I can't help but compare & notice how pretty some scars and tummys look at 3 wks post op compared to mine! One side looks like excess skin hanging out, the other isn't straight BRUISED 2 wks later & the front is swollen & from incision, down, it drops like a ledge, not flat at all! AND I have a crazy indent/cave in on my pubic area. Dr says its a suture & clains EVERYTHING is alright & will clear up & smooth out. I want another doctors opinion. Please. Because I regret this & want peace of mind.
