hadouni 301 Posted January 18, 2012 One of my little sections of steri strips finally came off and there was no stitch! This is one of the camera incisions, not the larger ones. Am I held all together with glue? I haven't had any wound seepage or bleeding at all. I like my surgeon more and more every day! How many stitches did you have? Do you remember?

andersonlj 32 Posted January 18, 2012 I did not even have steristrips and all of my stiches were internal and dissolvable so I have no idea how many that I had. I did have a little area that was seperated but I did not have any problem and it has healed. You can always take a bandaid and put it across and pull it together before taping down the other side.

Cheles 75 Posted January 18, 2012 I had skin glue and LOVED it. I've been using Bio-Oil to reduce the scaring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted January 18, 2012 I didn't have any staples or stictes, I had glue and a liquid bandaid over it that came off around 6 weeks. I had not problems with healing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LVikingFan 14 Posted January 18, 2012 I was glued too. It must be very popular, my Grandson is having cleft lip surgery at the end of the month and they were told that his lip would be glued too. I am sure that there will be internal stitches, but it sure will help keep the scarring down. I only can even see the biggest incision that they actually removed my stomach through. All the others have faded away to nothing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
