Thigh & Arm Lift on African Americans
I am not african american but I scar like I am! I tend to keloid with scaring and my plastic surgeon was concerned about that. So after my TT he had me cover the incision for an entire 6 months with paper tape....it did help alot! I would discuss this with your PS. I know arm lift scars are harder to cover up than TT ones...so good luck to you

never used cream. I had tape on it from my first post op appt..which was 5 days after my surgery. I had surg in Jan..and just only recently stopped using the tape. I did it for an entire 6 months like he said. I did not form any keloids this time and I had them with both my VSG scars and then my gallbladder scars (I had to have my GB out a few months post VSG). So I think it worked for me.
good luck to you
