Asked By:LaciNelson in Gaston, South Carolina

I had a tummy tuck about seven months ago, and my doctor told me that I would have to have a vertical scar because I didn’t have enough skin to remove. Instead, he tried to overcompensate, and now I have a rainbow scar that sits well above my panty line. When I asked him about it, he told me that there was nothing that he could do about it And I wanted to see if that was true
