large post op scars

[lana777]

Hey girls,

i loved having the surgery and i love being post op, the only thing i have been dissapointed with is that the scars are so big where the surgery took place it kinda looks unnatural. The BF dosn't care at all but it bothers me i hate them if i could change a thing then thats what i would change about the surgery. Dr.Brassard left me with huge scars! but i am still happy with the result

Vitamin E oil.  Buy the gel caps.  Pierce the end with a needle and rub the oil on the scars.

Also use Scar Zone.  I have used it and it works just as well.

Thats good to know!!! depending on my situation I may need this.thanks!!

Some people, like me, develop more and harder scar tissue. How long time ago was your srs? My scars have had a long period of slow improvement and becoming softer.

I second the rec for vitamin E! Also the part about how some people scar more than others; I tend towards visible but not raised scars, which actually worked pretty well with Brassard's placement of incisions on me. (By now, which isn't yet the one-year mark, scars on the outer labia are fading to pinkish and mostly well hidden by hair. I only have one really obvious scar anymore, and it's a 1" scar high up on the mons where the drain was - so not a dead giveaway.) Hopefully with time and further healing, they'll fade for you too.

Yeah, I have the scars too...but hair covers them well enough so that you wouldn't even know. I was worried just after surgery that I would have huge nasty visible ones or bad scar tissue or granula. Fortunately, just the pair, covered by hair, hardly even know they're there... a reasonable trade for what was there before, neh?

I´ve been using this product. It´s so much easier to use than capsules and you get more for your money. Still five drops of this is the daily dose so it cant be weaker.

I too use vitamin E oil, almost every night and do not wear pants when applying. I also use retinol once a week.

don't use topical vitamin e.  repeated studies have shown that not only does it not help with scars, it can lead to adverse reactions.

I had some stitch lines come apart (especially at the bottom on the outside) and they basically look like big veins now. I'll give the Vit E a shot, though.

Wow I have these Brassard scars too! And I'm 1.5 yrs post op. They don't bother me that much though. I've told guys I had a cyst on my cervix remove and they don't ask any questions.

I've found this to be true as well. Avoid topical Vitamin E treatment as they can actually have an adverse effect as to scar healing.

Do you have keltoid scarring by any chance? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keloid

I am a Brassard alum and I have keltoid scarring. A year after surgery I had a follow up and he looked at them and offered to do a revision to attempt to minimize the scars more. I haven't had it done yet but I do know that now after 2 years my scarring I still slowly diminishing so you may still see changes up to a few years out 

[lana777]

Yes i wasnt to happy , but the old man dosnt mind so i just let it go. i will most likely have a revision done in the future .. but i agree ... was a trade off that im happy with lol

I was recommended by Chet to use Mederma skin care for my trachea scar and it works excellent. It's a gel that you apply to the scar over night and then rub off in the morning.
