    Default anyone had scars removed?

    I have a really gnarly surgical scar that runs from the bottom of my sternum to about an inch above my navel. I've used Mederma on it for almost a year, and it has faded and gotten less sensitive, but is still very angry-looking. The wound was closed with staples, and they left scars too, so the whole thing has a wierd zipper-like appearance. When I dance, I wear corsets or waist cinchers to cover it. That's worked well so far -- occasionally something will slip and a customer will see it, but nobody's acted too grossed out by it so far.

    I'd love to know if anyone has succesfully had a scar reduced or removed. Apparently there's a laser surgery that reduces the blood vessels present in the scar, "starving" it into becoming smaller. Anyone know anything about this? Other scar reduction tips? Thanks!!

    I would love to know too. I was told to use scar solutions. The only problem is my scar is by my lip and it doesn't stay. I use a very very pure vit E oil. My P.S. told me to stay away from maderma, that scar solutions works best.

    Have you thought about having the area re-cut and made smaller?

    It's purely cosmetic, but I have heard about some PS's doing scar reduction. They cut out the scar and make a smaller one in it's place.

    Here is some very vague info, lol. (I'm still looking...)

    These guys looks like they know what to do.

    I saw a girl with the same scar, and she was only wearing a thong. I only saw her on stage once, didn't see her again the entire night, or ever again at that club.

    Well, that seems to confirm my theory that gnarly long red surgical scars are not the best money-makers. For now, I'm happy wearing corsets and fitting them into my show, but I'd love to have more options.

    Thanks kitana for the awesome links. Seems like scars can be diminished but not disappeared. I wish they had some pictures of post-op results.

    Anyone else?

    No idea...the scar is raised right? Can't just cover it with makeup?

    Have you considered (this might be crazy) getting a tattoo over it? I've seen tons of earners with artwork on their stomachs. I mean, it's probably not your first choice, but might be better than the scar?

    No problem hun, the only reason I remembered that at all was because me and a few girls were talking about that very thing a week or so ago.

    One girl got her c-section scar reduced when she got her tummy tuck done, and the other is getting her scars from shoulder surgery reduced and made smaller.

    I wish I could be more help!

    i had a scar reduction done on my second BA, to clean up the mess a bit....personally, i dont see much of a difference.

    having big ol nasty scars dont seem to make a difference. it matter more to me then to the custy.

    cover with dermablend for redness.

    ive seena girl with the same scar, runs straight down her belly,kinda scary looking,cos it puckered up her tummy on both sides and runched it kinda. she just worked as if it didnt exist,and still made money

    i think the trick is to not let it bother you so much, yeah i know the hardest thing to do in this situation, but really, guys are too busy looking at other things imo.

    otherwise check out some of the lazer treatments they have out for scars.

    Tanning helps camouflage scars.I have a scar on my hip and the tanning helps that a lot.

    Well the c-section one isn't noticable at all hardly.

    The one on the shoulders, is still there but it's not at big or apparent as they were, so I would say success.
