I had a tummy 14 weeks ago. Going in, my navel was an “innie” and it’s now an outtie with a scar tracing around. And even more upsetting somehow, I was left with a hyperpigmentation scar from the adhesive tape they used. I have tried the hydrquinone with retinol initially, which gave me chemical burns and irritation despite very conservative use. My doctor charged another 1200 for IPL for treatment with no change still. I’m becoming disheartened and after $26,000, I’m out of money to treat.
