Scar Revision
Hi All,
Im glad to say that I have a new date for a scar revision. As most of you that have met me have seen my scar, its quit wide and VERY tender. I popped my internal stiches at about 2 weeks out, (my fault 100%), so thus made healing all nice and pretty impossibale. So with that said and done Im getting a new scar over my old scar in hopes and dreams of looking like our beautiful Rains scar. My new date is Dec 27th. Tri-care is 100% covering this revision Im so excited about this. My husband says to throw in new boobs while Im there.... I might just do that.

Yay for you Dawn!! I'm sure you're excited! I have a lump on the side of my right thigh from where I fell through a ceiling years ago. I have even tried lipo on it with no success... It is something I am very self-conscious about so I can only imagine how you must feel about the scar and how great you will feel afterwards!

When I had my tummy tuck, my surgeon threw in a scar revision b/c he didn't like my open RNY scar!! I'm glad I did it!! You'll be so happy!
