I had my surgery laparoscopic. How long before they are completely healed?

I had a total of five sites the first 4 took less than a week to close the fifth one took about 3 weeks.

Mine healed really nice in like 2 weeks. I did not have sutures nor staples, I just had Steri Strips to keep them closed. My surgeon pulled them off 2 wks after surgery.

I had one stitch in the 4 small incisions and 2 the 2 larger ones. My stitches still haven't dissolved and I was just wondering.

Mine were healed in less than two weeks. No staples or stitches, just glue.. The incisions are nice and smooth no bumps. My primary was like he (my surgeon) is a pro. :)

Mine was done with the Da Vinci robot. Idk if that makes a difference on the healing process. But, I just washed with soap and Water everyday and they healed way faster than I expected. Lol

Mine were glued with steristrips. At two weeks when they started coming off, they were closed and all. I kept one on for 4 weeks though. Never any issues with them.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
