In her latest 'What I Eat In A Day' video on her channel, the 22-year-old bared the scar on camera.
Molly-Mae has documented her health journey on the platform since the problems first arose, detailing her painful recovery last month after the keyhole surgery.
As the influencer tried on new sportswear for her YouTube video, she revealed that "my stomach is still fully not back to normal from my endometriosis operation."

"They obviously went under my belly button as well and lower down," she revealed.
Endometriosis is a long-term condition that causes those who menstruate to have debilitatingly painful periods.
The NHS website categorises endometriosis as "a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the womb starts to grow in other places, such as the ovaries and fallopian tubes."
Receiving a straight diagnosis for the common problem can oftentimes be difficult, it's reported that as many as 1-in-10 women could suffer from the illness.
Molly-Mae, who has been adjusting to life after the devastating £800,000 burglary to her former Manchester home, is continuing to be vocal about her "tough recovery" following the medical procedure.
