Had scars revised?
I'm having the central scar on my chest and the scar of the right side of my breast moved a little so they sit more squarely. Surgery is Friday.
I'm also moving two weeks from today and need to pack.
If you have had scars revised, were you feeling up to snuff pretty quickly? I don't have to lug big boxes, but I do have to pack. And I will have to do a 5 hour drive home, alone, 48 hours after the revision.

I had a revision on my brachioplasty scar. Driving would have been no problem, lifting and reaching might have been a bit much for me. I would say as long as the revised areas are not in an area that would pull or get stressed with these activities, you're probably okay. The pain is nothing.
Just keep in mind that these revisions take a long time to heal - both from the actual healing and fading. It's been over a year since my arm revision and the fading is very, very slow.
