I am 60 yr old female, I weigh 110lbs I had a mini thigh lift done 5 months ago. The surgeon made the incisions about 1 inch below the groin crease telling me due to labial spread??? I never would have agreed to this placement had I known before hand. I can never wear a normal bathing suit bottom. I am scarred inside and out. Can anyone make any suggestions I truly feel as though I was literally hacked up

Answer: Scar the best treatment for scars that are still red is silicone tape. also you scar have migrated a little talk to your surgeon about if a surgical garment will help them stay in the crease or if a minor revision might be indicated in 6-9 months to reposition the scars in the crease.

There are some great scar revision treatments available in the non-surgical and minimally-invasive aesthetics world.
