    Sad C-section scar, what to do?...

    Hi there girls. I'm pretty new to camming, I cammed through the month of July but due to being put on some medications that made me sleepy, I couldn't cam anymore(I cam late at night after everybody's asleep). Now that the doctors have found just the right amount of meds for me, and my body's used to them, I can cam again!

    Thing is, I'm a 18 year old teenage mother of a 10 month old. My daughter was born via c-section, and the scar is still pretty noticeable. Noticeable enough that guys asked about it all the time while I was camming. I was asked many times if I had kids.
    Because I am, and look, young(er), my camming persona is the "sweet, barely legal girl" type. I feel like it clashes A LOT with the fact that I'm a mother and it makes me uncomfortable. I don't want to stop camming, I loved it the month I did it, and it's perfect for me because I have my own schedules, don't have to leave home, etc. But I don't know what to do with my scar. I've tried everything - from make up, to clothes that cover it, to telling guys it's because of some other health condition - but guys still ask.

    So, girls, I ask for your advice! What can I do? It's driving me crazy.

    I know one of the models on SM never shows her stomach for the same reason. She will wear bustiers or other sexy clothes that she can just pop her top or bottom out of and it seems to work for her. Another thing is while she is still sexy and confident she also kindly reminds people that it's her choice not to show her stomach for whatever reason and then leaves it at that (aka ignoring people who try to get her to focus on it by talking about it, asking more questions, etc). That may be an idea

    There's no magical solution. You can hide it, or you can own it.

    1) You can just tell guys that it's from a c-section. If they reply with "Do you have a kid?" they are clearly morons. Move on. If someone wants to talk about it in detail, they can do it in private. Most guys really don't care if you have a scar or not, it's just something to say, like "hru bb".
    2) Hide it.
    a) Go all the way and get a tattoo to cover it (would not advise, you are young and may have more kids), or
    b) Use clothes. Vest tops, boobtubes, underbust corsets. Don't take them off, just wear clothes that make your boobs easily accessible but can stay around your middle during shows. If guys during privates ask you to get totally naked you can then say that you have a scar and it makes you self conscious. Some will say to keep it on then, some will tell you you're beautiful and that they don't care, and the others who try to force you aren't worth bothering taking it off for, as they are probably a short private anyway.

    I have a really creepy looking flat tail bone. I mean REALLY creepy and very noticeable. It is so creepy that its creepiness has been pointed out to me many time by people in my daily life who have seen me naked. ("Jesus, what the fuck is wrong with your ass!?! It is fucking creeping me out!")

    I've been camming for two years and never once has anyone pointed it out or mentioned it to me.

    This is because I do my damnest to not show my butt as much as is humanly possible by a camgirl. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with how many body flaws you can hide with good camera angles and sneaky poses.

    Have you tried playing with your lighting? I have a lovely open heart surgery scar down my chest and a c section scar. I've only had 1 person ever comment on the scar on my chest and I show my boobs off all the time.

    Try using scar gel or scar sheets to help heal and minimize the scar.

    Or maybe use some concealer to cover it up.

    ^yup. dermablend covers tattoos, so itll cover scars. i use sally hansen self tanner cream, and makeup to cover 2 inch stretch marks on my left side. or use garter belts of half corsets like the other girls have mentioned. soo many options!

    I have stock in dermablend. I dont use it

    I have mad stretch marks that put my c section to shame. Last year I decided the OTC remedies where fucking up my flow , more time etc.

    Funny thing is. No one says a word, if they do its bc they have a fetish for it. I use to let it bother me. Over time you will worry less about the scar and more on money.that scar will not make or break you.

    First of all, please know that you're beautiful. I've dated women with kids before & known plenty of mothers who have insecurities about stretch marks and C-section scars. Their scars never bothered me, nor did I ever notice them much. Most men are the same way. The worthwhile people you meet will think you have a gorgeous body, or won't even notice your "flaws", any way. Some people will find you more beautiful for being a mother. I realize that the persona you're going for isn't supposed to be mature, though, so you don't want your C-section scar to be obvious.

    Personally, I've got plenty of stretch marks & scars myself. I'm fair skinned & if I scar it's very noticeable. My left knee has some serious scarring from getting stitches recently. As a fellow cam girl & woman, I know that it's hard to put your body on display all day long, especially when you worry about your perceived imperfections affecting your earnings.

    Since you're looking for a practical approach, and not a sermon, here are some ideas about what you can do to conceal/heal your scar.

    Concealing:
    The ladies here have given solid advice about using clothing to conceal your "problem" areas. I love retro garter/suspender belts, & there are many clients who have a fetish for the pin up look. If vintage lingerie is not your style, there are plenty of attractive, more modern options available. Girdle-garter belts are helpful if you're feeling self-conscious about your mid section. They provide support and conceal most of your lower stomach. I own a few garter belts. My favorite garter/girdle belts are from "Kiss Me Deadly". The Van Doren style is very cute & versatile. I've had mine for years and they've held up to all sorts of abuse. As far as garter belts go, they are high quality and practical for daily wear. They make me feel very luxurious when I wear them, though. I recommend hand washing them to keep them looking new, but you can wash them in a machine in a pinch. They're well worth it.



    Baby dolls or corsets are also solid options. Kiss Me Deadly has a lot of awesome option in terms of corsets, too. So does What Katie Did, they also have a range of garter belts.

    The Lingerie Addict is a particularly helpful blog which has a lot of information if you're looking to expand your lingerie collection. I'm sure most cam models fall into that category. I found those two brands through them. Here's a link to their list of good places to shop online. I've never been disappointed with them:



    To conceal particular scars, I use make up like some of the other ladies. Using a moisturizing primer keeps the skin better hydrated, which I find helps the makeup look more natural. I use Beauty Balm, which is pretty popular recently. I like Maybelline brand a lot. It's basically a tinted moisturizer, but it's also used in place of primer/foundation. After that, I use stick concealer where needed & blend. A fluffy brush & translucent or flesh toned powder help set the makeup in place. Careful, though, makeup can rub off on clothing, especially if you're moving a lot. Keep it touched up and beware if you're wearing dark/bold colored clothing it might get on.

    Healing:
    As I said, I've got scars of my own, although not as extensive as some of you girls. I used Palmer's brand cocoa butter formula on my scars and it works wonders on them. After a few months of using it, you can hardly tell I've got a scar on my knee, and it was a nasty injury. Stitches are never fun... anyway, it helps immensely. I put it on every day before bed. Also, it smells a bit like chocolate which I appreciate. Palmer's skin therapy oil is also very effective. I use it to moisturize (it can cause blemishes in acne prone areas as it's oil"). Taking vitamins helps the healing process. Kiwis are choc-full of Vitamins C & E which help your skin heal.

    So... this post ended up being a whole lot longer than I originally thought. I hope I've helped you. Good luck!

    I have mastectomy scars on my reconstructed breasts. I use Bio Oil which really does help fade them but I know they will never fade completely.

    So, I own them. If I have the confidence to get naked and masturbate on cam I sure a hell can show my scars

    And Lillit...that kissmedeadly stuff is stunning. I'm meant to be ordering groceries this morning but stuff that, I'm ordering suspenders!

    Breast cancer? I kicked its butt...back on cam and loving it!

    try a red light blub, it will help conceal the scar
    or you could also adjust the color levels of your cam to have more red and a lil less blue.

    Hehe. I know, right? I got my KissMeDeadly garter belts from ebay because it was less expensive. Someday soon I'm going on a shopping spree there!

    I don't get all the way topless for almost the same reason. Although I didn't have a c section, I was left with some excess skin that hasn't snapped back 3 years later. So my stomach is a bit wrinkly. So I just wear tube tops, underbust corsets, spaghetti strap tanks. And once in a while someone will ask me to take it all the way off or ask why I don't take it off. Like someone said above, I just ignore them or say I don't do it. And usually they don't care. They're still seeing boobs and ass. You don't have to do anything you don't feel comfortable with.. ever. Even if it is just showing your stomach. You run that shit.. Not them

    Thank you to everybody who answered!!! You all gave me some fantastic ideas. I'll wear tube tops, tank tops etc. for the time being, I think it's probably the easiest and cheapest thing to do. I'll buy some girlish ones in bright colors. While I'd love to own my scar and be proud of it(I've got a beautiful baby daughter!) it doesn't go well with my persona. I look very young and the 'lolita' style is what I'm going for. Lolita and MILF don't go well together... UNLESS I can somehow make it work?

    I LOVED the girdles you suggested Lillit!! I'm totally in love with the pin-up look. Sadly I don't think I could make it work, at least not on cam. Buuut I'd love to buy that stuff for my personal use hehe

    I use a pink bulb at all times as part of my three point lighting set up. That, combined with cinema secrets cream base, hides my stretch marks and bad skin. If you want to cover it up, just try to match the skin tone. Don't worry about the skin texture. Lighting can hide most of that.

    You also had mentioned your baby is only 10 months old. Give it some more time! It may improve more over time. Maybe not drastically but it will get better.
