Not sure if this is the right forum to post..

But I want to put up some new pics on my profile but my body has changed a bit due to scaring from my surgeries that I had.I am a bit nervous that it’s gonna put people off.

Has anyone else had to do this ?? Any help would be much appreciated

You are you - be proud! There's other Fabbers on here who have scars. I can think of one very popular guy with a large scar on his torso, but it doesn't seem to stop the ladies lusting after him

They will probably see the scar if you meet so no point hiding it. Wear it with pride--it's the only body you have x

Scars shouldn't put decent people off. If you look closely at the pic of us together 11th September, you'll see knee scars. Though they do get covered on nights out with stockings.

Mrs H had breast surgery in 2014 and all our photo's are from since then.

The sharp eyed ones will notice that she disguises it with a temporary tattoo.

We still have our old ones from prior to the surgery but felt that it would be unfair to show them.

Believe me, she has had much more fun since the surgery than ever before.

I get that. Confidence will be no competition for the scar. X

I've got quite a few scars and they sometimes are visible in my photos but I don't edit them out or anything. They're part of who I am and if anyone meets me in person, they'll see them.

I think you should just post your photos OP. I think people will be less bothered than you think

I agree with this, I've put one of mine up as my profile pic as a confidence boost for you...it's been fabbed 10 times, which is a lot for guys.

I would put them up. If anyone doesnt like it, they aint for you.

I have a fake left boob with no nipple. It has a large oval scar on it instead! I dont show my left boob in any pics. I have sent on a pic of my 2 boobs to people before in private just to show them as they were curious.

Show you scar with pride.

There are quite a few people on here with scars and assorted lumps and bumps.

I would never put me off, as another poster says-if it puts someone off they wouldn't be worth meeting anyway.

.... Most people are really not that bothered, go for it

Just post them lovely. They are part of who you are and your story. Anyone who has an issue with then isn't worth meeting up with anyway.

I know it’s easier said than done, but try and embrace them. Post the pics, only an arsehole would have a problem with it and hopefully the more you see people accept them, the more confident you’ll feel about it. That’s how it worked for me anyway - I have scars from an operation 6 months ago, they’re visible in some of my pics. I was very self-conscious about them for ages but seeing that no-one else is bothered about them made me feel so much better.

Honestly, if you hadn't pointed it out and I wasn't looking specifically for it, I wouldn't have noticed. That's not meant to be negative, it means it's really not as obvious as you think it is. Even if it was more obvious, it would only put tosspots off.

I'm sure it's very obvious to you because it's your body. But it's not to me. If I didn't know it was there I wouldn't have noticed it. Good for you x

Having same probs myself since some surgery in September which I needed but the result on other areas has left my body completely changed with large dents all over my legs and a saggy wrinkled middle with loose skin and empty to the touch

Haven’t played out since as lost all confidence tbh even with old play friends and whilst I wouldnt judge anyone else at all it’s just hard to accept and feel like I need to mention this in any messages which kinda kills the vibe

Working on it !

Fully agree.

Once you've been to Cap nothing like that matters.

OP, honestly it's still minimally obvious. I don't think it's going to put anyone off.

I have a huge c section scar. While I don't show it in pics not one guy commented on it ever on meeting or afterwards.
