tampa 55 Posted May 22, 2013 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sab964 10 Posted May 22, 2013 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jmiller2013 6 Posted May 22, 2013 Try propolis balm (bees wax) and/or Vitamin e. Rub the scars to break up the keloids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
