I have read that there is open surgery and laser. Which is most common. I read people on her talking about bandages. Drains. How big is scar and where is it? Thanks

Mine was laparoscopic and I have 5 incisions. 3 very small maybe 1/2 an inch and 2 larger ones about an inch long and they were closed with dermabond so no bandages. I did not have a JP drain but I have read that some do, surgeons preference I suppose.

To add to the topic, what's a good scar reducer?
