How Long Will It Take To Heal The Wound Completely After Hysterectomy?

I had the robotic assisted hysterectomy July 8 th and I still have tape over my incision. I had my tubes and 1 ovarie removed.I was able to get one of the tape pieces off but when I did it looks like the stitches are still there. Is this possible? I am still really bruised up were the ovarie came out so, I am thinking i better not touch those pieces of tape.If I get the tape off will the heal faster?
