    Hello ladies!

    I’m recovering well now 19 days post op (how time flies!!) and can now do most things, yay! I’ve been checking my incisions a lot lately and I’ve noticed my left is really hard! Has anyone else had this? Is there a way I can take it away slightly? 🙂

    Thankyou ? x

    Hey hun,

    Look up scar massage. This is where you rub the incisions helping to break down the build up of scar tissue. You’ll notice them soften up within a few days if starting the massage. It encourages scarring to heal flat instead of raised/hard

    Hi Sarah, You’re still very early stages of recovery and so the scars will still be raised and hard as they are fresh. I would advise buying bio oil and start applying, it works absolute wonders. Like said above massaging helps heal them flat, so i applied bio oil to my scars and rubbed softly and slowly but surely not only have they strunk in size but have also started to flatten and look less obvious. Good luck x
