No surgical tape needed for Breast Augmentation?

Hello,Glue used in place of steri strips is common and can produce excellent results. Follow your Plastic Surgeon's instructions for care.All the best

I would not be worried.  In fact deep sutures combined with superglue works very well after breast augmentation.  I avoid the use Steri-Strips because I believe fluid Beneath them and can macerate the incision.

There are various ways to cover the skin after breast augmentation (as well as other procedures).  The two most common are Steri Strips (tape) and skin glue.  Dermabond is probably the best known example of skin glue.  Both methods work well.  Some surgeons prefer one method and some prefer another.  I don't think one way is necessarily better than another.  In my practice, I usually use Steri Strips in conjunction with Mastisol, which helps the Steri Strips adhere to the skin.  However, I will use Dermabond in situations where a patient has a sensitivity to adhesive tape, and they are fairly common. The skin glue seals the incision and creates a waterproof barrier.  In theory, it should keep bacteria out of the incision as well.
