Did your surgeon glue your incision?

Hi everyone- I've learned that my surgeon uses "human glue" (for lack of a better term) to close the incision on his WLS patients. I've done the surgical stitches route, both the dissolving type (had a terrible, itchy rash) and the type that needed to be removed (OUCH!). So I'm happy about the possibility of not dealing with stitches. I'd like to ask if any of your surgeons used the glue, and how did it work? Did you like it? Did you develop a rash? What did you need to do to care for it? How badly did you scar from it? Did it smell funny? (When I get hormonal, stinky things really bug me, sometimes even bringing on a migraine.) I'm going to be having open RNY due to my high BMI. Any info appreciated. Thanks, Mea
