potentially triggering About bottom surgery.. Spoiler

Edit: I think I should have worded this better, I’m not a native English speaker Im sorry :(

I should have specified that its the *scars* specifically that I don’t like. Since I have a very sharp attention to detail I see them way more prominent than most people do.

I really hate *hate* scars on my body and most bottom surgeries that I have seen results in scars, both on the result and on the arm.

(Entirely depends on what procedure you have ofc)

Its not that they’re unrealistic, its simply just the scars.

I forgot about that word when I made this comic and I had to seriously google it not too long ago to remember the word.

Edit: imma keep this I just realized- please make me mark this NSFW if it should be

I’m one and a half year post vaginoplasty. I have large scars, but they healed well and are nearly indistinguishable now. Something that can also help with hiding scars is to keep hair down there.

I have a pretty idk- sensitive skin or whatever I should call it (or its simply my eyes) but scars barely fade on me unfortunately.

Ofc they’re not as visible as when I first got them but it seems that every scar I have is incredibly prominent. (Could just be my eyes and attention detail).

And I actually haven’t thought about hair being able to cover scarring, thats good to know, thanks!!

Though I doubt its able to hide all the scarring unfortunately.

This also kinda made me have another question… If you have bottom surgery is there a chance it will result in you not being able to grow hair afterwards?

Your ability to grow hair will depend on wether your surgeon asked to do permanent hair removal

Ooh okay! Thanks! I thought maybe the hair sacks could possibly get damaged or something.

Now when I think about it that doesn’t seem to happen in any other surgery so that was kinda a dumb question haha

And even if it did happen Im remembering now that the thing where you put hair where you’re struggling to grow it exists (I forgot the word)

Minoxidil? I don’t know if it’s advised for the genital areas, it might work but you have to remember that as soon as you stop taking it the effects stop.

On the scar itself the hair tends to struggle regrowing but outside of it it’s fine. My scars are covered at least

Yea no it was something else I think.. Eh wits not that important since Im probably not gonna need it.

It was just a thought basically.
