Compared to the stretch marks....the surgical scars are an afterthought. I look like a bear used my belly as a scratching post.

This is me. I have 5, one of which is like a second navel. I don't really care though because of the scars from stretched skin are far more ugly in my opinion.

I'm only 6 days out so they're not scars yet, but I have 5 incisions. One is teeny tiny. Thee steristrip has already fallen off (it's on my bra line) and the scalp is just larger than a pen tip. The steristrip on the others are only about 1/4", so I expect those incisions are pretty small as well. My gallbladder scars are much larger. I'm 5 years out from that and you have to be inches from my belly to see them. I imagine the same will be true for these ones.

My doctor used glue. Worked perfectly.

I have 5 scars from my sleeve surgery. I'm one of those lucky people who form keloids on their scars, so mine will never go away. I've had three heart surgeries, two pacemaker implants, my gall bladder removed, my appendix removed, and a c section - so these are the least of my scars!
