4 year update

here’s a few pics, sorry for the bad lighting and shadowing. I paid for a year of the ‘Brazilian’ laser hair removal so there is no hair near the scar (or anywhere else for that matter) and I love it :)

I’m need of input: Brazilian or no?

I’ll be 3 years on the 12th, but I’m posting a few pics today because I need some input on my hair / scar problem lol. I paid for a years worth of Brazilian laser hair removal and I’ve had 2 sessions so far. At first I asked her to leave a small patch of hair on the front and she said she would, but that if I decided I wanted the Brazilian she will do that at any time and we could take it all off. EVERYTHING else got lasered off. (If you want more details about how that felt or what the appointment was like just ask, I’ll answer any questions, I’m not shy lol) So today I went ahead and shaved everything off to see how it feels for the next couple weeks and I’m hoping to get some input from all you ladies on what I should do. It’s like a damn war zone down there. First off, I have a long crooked stretch mark that runs just to the side offcenter and it ruins any shape I try to make with the hair so I thought just a natural round-ish kinda shape would be ok, and I’ll try to just pretend like the scar doesn’t exist, but nothing seems to look normal And then there’s the little white scar spots where the drain tubes came out and where the stitches held them in place during recovery. It’s all just a huge mess and not pretty at all....
so RS friends, I apologize for asking, but please look at the photos and tell me what you would do if you were me.

Brazilian laser treatment question

What’s everyone’s opinion on a Brazilian wax? Or laser hair removal? I got my underarms lasered and I now don’t have to shave that area anymore :D and I have the opportunity to get the Brazilian laser treatment I’m that area and I’m not sure I want it all gone?! Lol, is that weird? Help me out ladies. Pro’s and cons if you’ve had a Brazilian treatment in that area. By the way, my main concern is the fact that my scar meets my pubic hair line now and I want that area cleaned up a bit. And of course I want the sides lasered so I don’t have to worry about that area during bikini months. Let me know what yalls opinions are. Go full on and take it all away? Or leave a little?

I scheduled a free consultation with Dr. Gill (and another Dr in the area) Dr. Gill made me feel very comfortable. He explained everything well and answered all my questions. I went with Dr. Gill because i love the upside down "U" (flap) technique he uses for the belly button. it has a very natural look compared to the "0" belly button scar others seem to do. He also lifts the pubic area so it isn't pudgy looking compared to your nice new flat tummy. His scars are very low and clean looking in the before & after photos I've seen. UPDATE: I'm 11 days post my tummy tuck and I am 100% happy with everything. My scars, my incision, my belly button... Dr. Gill makes me feel so at ease and comfortable. He is very comforting, kind and gentle, always informative before he does anything. I highly recommend Dr. Gill :)
