I know this is an old post. But I’m really curious what happens to the scar after the delivery. I had my surgery back in 1999, and have a long scar from 4 inches above my belly button to like 10 inches below it. Does the scar tissue go back to normal after getting stretched so extremely?

Hi Sz, both my pregnancies post Jpouch surgery did very little to the appearance of my scar. I too was worried about how much it stretched and if it would look different when everything went back to “normal” but honestly it looks pretty much the same. Obviously this may not be the case with everyone, but it is amazing how our skin (and scar tissue) can stretch!
