Robotic Laporoscopic surgery

Had anybody had robotic Laporoscopic ovarian cyst surgery? I'm having this done to remove an 8cm dermoid cyst.

It's similar to keyhole however it is performed by a robot while the surgeon sits at the console and manipulates the instruments. It is supposed to be less invasive.

Is robotic laporoscopy the same as "normal" laporoscopy and keyhole surgery? If so, I believe plenty have had it...
