I had a C section 3 yrs ago, and scar was 6 ins wide, with skin overhanging. This was not dramatic, but did bother me as showed through some clothes. This year I had to have a hysterectomy for fibroids and surgeon said he would go in via my scar and tidy it. On my discharge notes it says abdominoplasty, and he said he took about 2 inches of skin. I am now 4 weeks post and scar is wider and my overhang is worse. I am really not happy with the result. Is it too soon to know if this will settle?
