Scars Pre-LL
« on: April 19, 2020, 07:55:57 AM »
Hi,

I have a scar on my thigh. I am looking to do femurs... the scar has faded a bit but is still somewhat noticeable. Has anyone lengthened with scars, and if so will the scar become stretched with lengthening?

Scars stretch if the skin around them is pulled on, so it will probably be elongated in the direction of the lengthening.

Try scar revision surgery before LL.
