Asked By:Gorgeous70848 in Linden, Pennsylvania

I had a tummy tuck in Dec 2021. At 10.5 months post-op, I am 95% thrilled with the results. I have been treating my scar with silicone tape and I also massage the area often. My scar is mostly invisible, except for the area pictured. What can I do to improve the appearance of this section of my scar? I'm particularly concerned with the raised/red area. Thank you!
