I haven't had a closed LIS but from what I've learned I'm thankful mine was open LIS. Why are you concerned about the "Open" procedure ? Has it been explained to you ?

If your surgeon knows what they are doing you should have a barely visible vertical incision 1-2 centimeters on the left or right side of your anus.
Upon inspection my wife wasn't even sure she could see it. When I tried to look it barely looked like a scratch. It should not require and stitches and will likely heal very quickly. My surgeon even explained which knife he would use and why. Ask many questions. I had virtually no pain from the LIS part of my procedure and I'm sure you will do just fine as well. Are you only having LIS done or anything else.
I had a polyp removed and a fissurectomy which left me uncomfortable for about 7 days and then from there I just kept getting better. I'm 6 weeks out now and feel like I'm about 95% At this point. I'm praying for a full recovery by 2 months. It's slow but steady at this pour and Im being careful with my diet but not super strict.
