Checked your profile - are you asking about a panniculectomy?

I had panni in November, was cut from hip to hip, they removed about 12# of excess flesh. Was home from work about 10 days, took my pain meds on schedule and wore my binder - pain was no worse than my WLS surgery. Had two drains and they were removed after the first week. No staples, and stiches were covered by tape and desolved in time. I now have a thin red scar line - no problems.
