I made it!!
I had a dent on the left side, right were the largest incision was. I worried about it at first as well. However, part of that is because of the amount of swelling in the area. For my surgeon at least, that left incision was where the actual work was done, the other incisions are for the camera, drain tubes, things that werent necessarily moved around a lot during the surgery. That left incision as my surgeon told me, is where the action is. LOL
After a couple of weeks, it was gone. Now 7 months out, the scar is considerably smaller and it's like a dimple. I don't really notice it.
Good luck to you!

Congratulations, glad it went well and you are up and moving already.
My surgery was 9 days ago, and I was up and walking pretty quick too. I just finished walking with my WII for 10 minutes non stop, which is huge for me. I haven't walked ten minutes at a time in almost ten years. LOL. Yipppeeeeeeeee
We will survive this, and be much better for it.
Keep us posted on how you are doing.
Prayers for a speedy recovery.
