Be sure to let the surgeon know you get keloid scars. There are steps they can tape like extra taping to prevent them. Some doctors are not that familiar with keloids so I hope yours is. When I had my C-section I got a hypertrophic scar instead of keloid. It’s the lesser of two evils. Smaller, less painful and flattened on its own in a couple years. You may or may not get a keloid, but an ounce of prevention…😊
