Second Look Laparoscopy

I was wondering if anyone has had luck with the second look laparoscopy. At this point, going to Germany (or even Pennsylvania for that matter) will be cost prohibitive. I am hesitant to have "just another laparoscopy." I have heard that some doctors go back in after 7 days to cut whatever adhesions have formed. I don't know why this in itself wouldn't form new adhesions. Has anyone had luck with this procedure? I've already had 5 surgeries and I am reluctant to do it again without a new strategy that is being done successfully here in the United States. Since Intergel has been pulled off of the market and Spray Gel is at least 2 years away, I hope that there is another alternative.

Thanks.
