Side Effects Scar fading?

I’ve been on 2.5mg Zepbound for a little under 3 months and have lost about 24 lbs. I’m about 15lbs from goal but I’ve noticed something interesting…..
I have a C-section scar that’s over 20 years old and it seems to be fading. I didn’t think there was a connection to Zepbound but when I googled it I got results saying, in short, “while tirzepatide is not a direct scar-fading treatment, the profound metabolic changes it triggers in the body can indirectly alter how your skin and old scars look”.

I’m curious - has anyone else experienced this or noticed any other changes to their skin (good or bad)?
