Saw my doc today!

Did I mention that I love him? I'm having my scars lasered in some areas - it supposedly helps to resolve the redness. (I don't have any thickness or keloids - just redness.) Apparently it just speeds things up - does what time will eventually do anyway. And again, NO CHARGE from the doc. I'm also using the silicone tape. Now that my fat necrosis is gone, my stomach is finally the flat I expected (see pics above). I can't believe this is my body, even with a few extra pounds. God bless science!

I am so glad to see you got rid of the bump! I know having the bump cost you some patience! You look better than ever now! You commented on my review that you'd had some laser work done on the scars, and have some invisible areas and some red and splotchy areas. Do you have any before and after pics where you had the laser treatment?

I don't have before/after, but I will take some updated scar shots when I have a chance. It's hard to know if the laser helped or not.

New pics after revision to remove "lump" of fat necrosis! 4.5 MONTHS PO

Well, the annoying little bump is gone! I had to go back in the binder for a few weeks, so some of these pics show binder marks, and there are also weird shadows - couldn't get the best lighting. But as you can see, the half an avocado sized lump of fat necrosis scar tissue (inside my incision) that was ruining my result... IS GONE! (And I'm still a bit swollen on my right lower abdomen from the revision surgery.) I also lost a lump of fat (a bit of lip) under one boob that didn't exist under the other. All done under local (for free), chatting with my doc the whole time. I think I'll look even better if I could knock off another 5-10 lbs (say from my current 142-144 to 135), but honestly, I'm 58 now and not really sweating it for now. I think I look pretty dang good. One of my boobs is a teency bit bigger than the other, but I'm the only one who notices. PLEASE NOTE: In some photos (maybe all, can't remember) I'm wearing SCAR TAPE on the vertical incision. My horizontal incision is very long because I had a previous breast reduction years ago that already had a long scar, and he had to go a bit further to smooth things out. All my scars are flat and fading slowly but surely. I will try to get a better boob shot later today - this time I was focusing on my stomach. I LOVE my doctor!
