I just joined this site. As for your first question: how many incisions? I had the single incision procedure (though the incision extended just above and below the belly button so it is NOT hidden in the belly button). It took about 6 weeks for the incision to completely heal. The base of my belly button seemed to ooze for weeks but the surgeon was "happy" with the healing. I just packed my belly button with guaze to absorb the ooze and keep my clothing clean.

Now my scar is small and healed. I am glad I only have the one incision.

I have five (one in the navel). I'm thinking they'll be around for awhile but at least they don't hurt. I gave up on a career in stomach modeling years ago. :lol:
