DeLarla 22 Posted May 2, 2005 The first thing you'll learn is that everybody is different. Some have no pain after surgery, others have a rough recovery. I was never in pain, I just had bloating and bad discomfort, but nothing painful. Most of us have 5 small incisions, and they put the ports in a lot of different places. You can use the "SEARCH" feature here using words like, "scar" or "incision" and find pictures of what the wounds look like. Some people heal and have practically invisible scars, others have more noticable ones. Do some searches & you'll find loads of information. Good luck.
