Asked By:siannamarie25 in Storrington, England, United Kingdom
I had a tummy tuck, liposuction and ab repair September 2020 and I’ve recently found out I’m around 3months pregnant. Unfortunately my tummy tuck scar healed as a keloid scar, despite all the oils and creams I used as adviced nothing has ever improved it. my biggest worry is ‘can I have a safe c-section through my keloid scar or can they go lower or higher’? It’s taking over my mind with worry. Please help? X
