Gastric sleeve surgery is a laparoscopic (closed) operation. 4 or 5 incisions are needed to perform this surgery. Whether or not the fifth incision will be opened is decided according to the size of the liver during the surgery. These incisions vary between 0.5 cm and 1.5 cm. Incision scars will heal gradually. Although aesthetic sutures are removed from the inside, 100% scar loss should not be expected, since the integrity of the skin will deteriorate.
