How many incisions did your surgeon make?

Hi,

I was wondering if there is anyone else out there that only has 2 incisions sites like myself? One in the belly button, one near my left rib cage that's VERY tiny. Did you have have any complcations or reactions to the glue in your belly button?

I've 5 or 6 that you can't see anymore (2 months out). The 'glue' just causes clotting... not a prob for me.
