The photos show that the operation was only a few days or a week ago. The bumpy skin will most probably become smooth again in the following weeks or months. It is too early to definitely say how the scar will look. If you have a predisposition to normal scar formation, the scar will be inconspicuous. If, on the other hand, you should have a tendency towards hypertrophic scar formation or keloids that don’t, however, occur frequently, then the scar will be visible as a bump. Fortunately, there is now the new minimally invasive stitch method, by which scars are no longer possible.
