Jesusislove 26 Posted March 2, 2012 Hi, just wondering how long it took for your your incisions to heal? A couple of my incisions were a little larger than with the lap band, I am assuming because they had to take out the lapband and revise to the sleeve. I try not to look at them. Also, they glued them together and used small staples as well. I feel like I had a Tummy Tuck, because my tummy is firm, just looks a bit weird. My doc said the staples will come out at the first appointment. With the lapband I had dissolvable sutures. My doc said she removed some scars from the last surgery too, okay hook me up will you. I am grateful for that, but the mini staples look frankensteinish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

circa 333 Posted March 2, 2012 everyone heals at a different rate - I'm a month out and mine are just now healed. 2 of them were fully healed after 2 weeks, one was healed last week and the other two are just now healed. I had removable sututres. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
