Hi, I SI in the past too so maybe I'm a bit prejudice. I wouldn't think much of the scars as I would think you been through a tough time and see how you recovered. I wouldn't worry about it. By the way, my T is always cold or says that so I rarely see her arms as they are usually covered. My T said she did her own therapy so she's knows what we go through. That would be the same for you. Good luck!
