How many incisions?

I have 6 incisions- seems like a lot! I also had a hiatal hernia repair which may be why-

How many incisions did you all have?

Hi.

I don't know to much about the wounds, but in my case I have only four insicions, 2 of 5 mm and 2 of 10 mm. I am very thankful with my surgeon, he is very professional. And I don't have any complaint regarding the wounds, he did not put stitches in the skin, only in the fat tissue, and in the port area, he closed my skin with glue (Dermabond glue), is a special glue for skin. send you the best wishes.

Looking forward for lose more weight.

Hi CN,

I have 5 incisions - a longer one above my navel, one under my boobs and 3 on my waistline. My dressings are still on so I don't know what they closed them with.

I have four incisions, I was told I would have five so I was surprised when I woke up and there were only four!
