CedarMan 4 Posted October 16, 2016 All surgeons typically do 5 incisions. Some will do 4 depending on the patient. Hope that helps you. Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trekker954 421 Posted October 16, 2016 I had 8, one was a mistake, out too far, barely noticeable but still my surgeon did say typically 6 or 7. Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rosey posey 176 Posted October 16, 2016 I'm looking forward to more healthy and less chubby times and (gasp) my date with surgery and Dr Miller in Columbus. Its a beautiful day today and I'm seeing good things ahead for this Posey . As I lose I'm gonna bloom out and my outside is gonna match my happy little heart. Wish me luck, okay?

cuteNATL 93 Posted October 16, 2016 I have 5...the biggest one is on my right side where he pulled my stomach out at.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
facebro29 272 Posted October 16, 2016 I have 5...the biggest one is on my right side where he pulled my stomach out at.... That's interesting. I thought the largest incision would be on the left side as that's where the stomach is located. I guess different surgeons have different techniques. Hope you are recovering well. All the best.

webdwarf40 33 Posted October 16, 2016 I have 5. Left, mid abdomen is the second largest. Umbilical is the largest. With the 3 they used for my gallbladder, I have a lopsided smiley face! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
