I’ve been told that plastic surgeons say 6 months to a year for scar tissue to remodel and feel normal. In your case it’s been a little over a year. You could try massage to help break it up and PT can help with this. They have multi-modal approach to reduce scar tissue. I am just starting to work with PT and that is one of the things we will work on. I have lots of scar tissue from multiple abdominal surgeries. Just a few suggestions. Wishing you the best.
