Indented abdominal scars: what are my options to make them look better? (Photos)

Scar revision surgery can correct this issue, however the procedure would need to be performed after you’ve given birth and have stopped breastfeeding. This is for the safety of your baby.

Get through the pregnancy and then reach out to a plastic surgeon who is board certified. Subcision and fat grafting usually fixes contour irregularities like this however it may take more than one fat graft session to correct optimally. Best Wishes!!

Dear jadey1307
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from scar revision. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Thank you for sharing your question. A scar revision will be required to correct the indentation. Hope this helps.

A scar revision should help improve the area that concerns you. It is best to wait until a few months after childbirth to address it so that your body has some time to recover from pregnancy.

Wait until after you deliver you baby to see if it is still there. Please avoid excessive weight gain during your pregnancy. Congratulations on your new baby!
