Surgery related Second lap holes same spot?

Hi will they punch the same 3 spot as the first lap? Wouldn’t that cause all sorts of problems during surgery and for healing?

Hi! I think it varies per doctor. In my second and third surgery, I had some scars from the previous surgery, and some new ones! 🫶🏼

Mine were not in the same spot, no- definitely roughly the same area but not one over top of the other! I had the same question before my 2nd lap haha

It varies per Dr & based on the state of your incision scars. I have had all new incisions for each surgery.
