That your port shows would bother me too. I am going to do the lapband thing i think, but healing, scarring and the port showing are significant concerns for me. :confused: Hey you are doing this in order to feel better about ourself and for your health,vitality. having pain and infection does not seem to contribute. good luck. take vit e and c and a they all help with healing. as long as the wound is not infected you can put vit e oil on it to encourage healing. i had a 3rd deg burn on my hand when i was a child and the scar really doesnt even show...
