It shouldn't.  They snip them in the middle with something like wire cutters, then remove them with tweezer-like things.  Occasionally skin sticks to them a little but they usually just come right out.

I had seven incisions and about 6 -7 staples per incision. I can honestly say only 3 hurt. :-)

Mine didn't hurt at all.  In fact it hurt more having them in then it did for them to take them out.  It doesn't hurt at all.
