So, after my last post—I was determined to make an appointment with my doctor at Stanford Health in Palo Alto, CA. During my appointment, he consulted with another practitioner—and they both agreed that they can try to excise my scar and treat it with laser therapy post surgery. I was hesitant when he first mentioned this treatment modality, because I’ve done an excision procedure before and my scar came back bigger!
However, I do trust him and am willing to try again. Perhaps I wasn’t getting the best treatment before, but my new doctor has a plan. We are waiting for my insurance to approve the procedure and treatment, and I might be doing this at the end of the summer. Will keep everyone posted!
