Bikini to cover lumpectomy scar (photo)

Hi
I had a lumpectomy last August and none of my bikini tops now cover my scar.

I'm willing to pay for a couple of decent bikinis - ideally bandeau with a wide portion of material that will cover the scar that don't make me look like an old granny.

Has anyone seen any lovely bikinis on their shopping trips?

How about Halkdiki? Or possibly Palm Valley.

Have a look at Boux Avenue. This is one of theirs that may be suitable.

Thank you, I'll do a bit of research

Can highly recommend the silicone patches you can buy for c section scars. You can start applying them years on and they are still effective apparently. I have been using one over my c section scar for a week, and both the new scar (5 weeks old) and the old scar (nearly 3 years old) seem to be fading nicely.
There's a few on Amazon that are reusable for a week at a time, so pretty good value.

Good luck with the bikini hunt - can't help there as I haven't worn a bikini in forever!
