Hi
Dont worry about scars, mine or not even an inch long. I have 4 small cuts on my stomach and one tiny one in my belly button. My dr didnt even stich mine, he used surgical glue. There not bad at all.

I have 6 scars, all small and some not noticable at all. I used cocoa butter daily early on and they were nearly gone, but when I stopped they darkened. Check the pics on my profile and you can see mine scars at six months out. Its really not bad at all.

Cuts always darken on my body, so I already know how mine are going to look, but they are small. I barely see your marks. I guess it is better to have a few lil marks than 130 lbs of extra weight..

My scars look really awful. They are small, but are VERY noticeable. I have five.
