hey guys, i know this may sound absurd, but...
i'm about two months post-op, and my scar is still really visible, but it's faded a lot already, and i'm afraid that it's going to fade away in the coming months/years. how can i prevent this from happening? i love my scar; it's my battle scar, and i want it to be prominent and there forever. i feel like after all i've been through, it's part of who i am and i want it to stay that way. to me, it beats a tattoo any day.
what can i do to stop the fading? or will it ever totally fade? will it always be red? will sunbathing give the scar permanence? maybe with some healthy amounts of sunlight, i can sear the scar into my back forever. :]
yes, i know this is totally backwards.
also, i will get to making a new thread for my recovery progress one of these days, for those of you all who have been wondering how i'm doing. just been dealing with a lot lately though.
thanks all.
