@hopeful33250 @danielad I don’t know how I would know if my skin has greater resiliency than typical but I do recover from surgery more quickly than typical. I also don’t seem to have as much pain as some people. I was a real redhead (now I’m a fake strawberry blonde) and I read somewhere that redheads tolerate pain better than most people!
@mari. That’s interesting that vitamin E was recommended for the scar. That’s the same thing I was told to do when I was nursing my children. I have done nothing for any of my surgical scars. I think the Vitamin E was to help heal the cracked skin.

@contentandwell - Hi JK, there appears to be a "common denominator" - - You recover more quickly than typical; your skin heals better than typical; your pain level is either lower, or better handled than typical ... and let's add in the "red" hair too.
