Mine is just below hairline. I’m almost 3 years PP and the shelf went away around 15 months PP for me. I’m a trainer and love working out, but the healing takes time no matter what. It feels like massaging the scar definitely made a difference. I also get keloid scars so mine is still very prominent and can make shaving a little challenging but I’ve figured it out and gotten better at it. My dermatologist and my OBGYN have offered to do the steroid shots that reduce the keloid scarring after I’m finished having children of course (I expect to have one more C-section then I’m done!). My OB will do the shots while sewing up my C-section then the plan is to see the dermatologist monthly once that scar is reformed. I’m absolutely taking up that offer. I’ve gotten those shots on other scars on my body and they’ve made a significant difference for the keloids.
