WORTH IT$900
I had a tummy tuck, soley for extra skin being removed. no stretch marks had abs. Once I got my surgery I was horrified how the scar was much higher then talked about( there wasn't enough skin) I knew I'd have a scar, but at week 4, it turned into a hemotrophic scar. I was completely mortified, repulsed and remorseful at what I had done over such a small imperfection. It had turned into uglier than ever now. I saw embrace online and it seemed to be the only hope. I purchased it, knowing it was my last hope. I had a consult for laser and it seemed like a lot of treatments/money for no promises. I went with Embrace. The 1st 4 weeks I was amazed at how flattened my scar had become..I could not believe my eyes. I used them exactly as directed, only I need 2 strips to cover my long scar, which is why I ordered 2 packs(for an 8 week supply) It was worth EVERY Penny!!!! I am so thankful to Embrace for giving me hope. I am at 11 weeks post surgery and am happy how much my scar has improved. After a year i am allowed to tan the area, so it will be even more healed and evened out. You went thru all of this , this extra step is so worth it, My scar looked WAY WORSE than any of my friend's tummy tuck scars..they were horrified, but now mine looks better than their's, at only 11 weeks. LOVE,LOVE, LOVE EMBRACE.
THANK YOU!!! These results are taken only 7 weeks apart.

I'm curious - in the first photo you have no C-section scar. In the second photo you have one. Also the distance between scar and belly button is shorter in photo one than in photo two. Almost as if photo had been stretched. Photo shopped?

The distance most certainly changed when she had the revision of her original scar...allowing for the skin to lay flat the second time around. Impressive improvement!
September 20, 2017
No, no..I will add another photo,if I figure out HOW. I WOULD NEVER LIE- the second pic is just a bit further away...and I was not able to stay upright in 1st pic, because my skin was so tight.

There is NO C-SECTION SCAR-This is my TUNMY TUCK SCAR, in BKTH photos. I had all 3. of my children vaginally.

I had bad skin irritation with it and didn’t do a lot for mine. Really disappointed with my results but glad it worked for you!
March 22, 2018
Im so sorry!

I'm glad your scar looks so nice now. I can't believe it went from a super raised scar to an almost non-existent scar. I am currently on my 3rd 10 day treatment and I love seeing all these fantastic reviews on Embrace. I can't wait for my scar to heal. It's still pretty red, so I'm hoping that the color will start to fade soon.
March 22, 2018
It will, my little bit of redness is FInally turning to a super thin white, hairline scar

I really never thought anyone would think I had scar revision work or " photoshopped" the pic. So I will take it as a wonderful compliment. Those that doubt my review/photo will be the ones missing out on amazing improvement. I simply wanted to share a product that I truly believe in and hope to help someone as devastated as I was over my bad scar. I'm still self conscious, but I am so very thankful how much it has improved.
Tip: I also took the time, altho somewhat painful, to massage my scar while it built up so much extra collagen.I think that helped circulate things.
Thank you Embrace!!!!?

You look fantastic! The difference between your after pic compared to your before pic is amazing! I’m also using Embrace and feel it has been very helpful with my scar healing. I hope you continue to heal well. :-)

ty so much! MUCH better!

I had a tummy tuck and used embrace as well. Embrace is amazing but it’s also genetics that take part, too. No reason to hate on a wonderful result and great genetics! The two together made out well for you.
