What Are my Options for Revising a Pyloric Stenosis Scar? My Skin over Hangs the Scar when I Flex. (photo)

October 11, 2012
Asked By:Jscott113 in Michigan

26 year old male. I have a pyloric stenosis scar. The scar itself it does what really bothers me. The surgery was done well, the leaner and larger my stomach musles get, the more my skin over hangs my scar when I flex my muscles. It is almost as though the scar is attacthed to something, and causes a huge indentation. I just dont want my scar to indent and want my skin to be even when i flex, even if the scar remains visible or not.
