My scar is pretty awful, I know. Thankfully, it will be rectified though during my reversal operation. It did take quite a while to heal as it was always leaking with infection. At one stage, I had a colostomy bag attached to the lower part of the wound, as this saved the nurses changing the dressings constantly. It is quite a deep scar too which makes it even more unsightly. I have what seems like a canyon running down the centre of my tummy! The scar really should have just been a nice little line, as you may see around my belly button. This part of the scar was left alone and has healed very nicely....as scars go!

Hi, Your scar isn't that unsightly. I just had a colostomy reversal done on December 15,2009. The scar is just so open and raw looking. It has to be more than a half inch wide and three quarters of an inch deep and its oozing some infection.
