Guest guest Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Hey - it's not silly or anything - you have to think about all of the aspects of your surgery, including what you're going to look like after. Part of scarring also is a genetic and coloring thing. In my family, we all scar horribly - we form keloids which are really thick; still pinker than my other skin after 17 years, kind of scars. Oh well, like anything - you weigh your options. Eat well for 17 years now - and hopefully going strong for some more - or worry about wearing a bikini. (and I was only 20 at the time so I still wore bikinis then) It was a no-brainer. Now - I had my gall bladder out last year laproscopically and you can barely see those scars anymore - they were so small they only covered them with steri-strips. Thankfully they have all of those nice tankini styles. Whatever your scar looks like, it shouldn't really be visible to the masses all too much anyway. Maybe you'll be one of those lucky ones -where you can't see anything after a few months anyway. Good luck with your surgery - I'll take happy swallowing over a bikini any day!! - in Va.
