my incision was (about) 4" long
I had 20 staples...and healed very well...
the staples were removed at my 2-week check-up...

best of luck to you !!

Mine is about 5 inches long....I had no staples, I was super-glued back together!!!lol  The pain wasn't so bad, I am going to tell you, you will have it...I was back to work in two weeks, I have an office job that involves no physical lifting....just the phone to answer it!!!  Best of luck to you!!
