When will the skin glue come off?

Asked By:jmnnnn in Everett, WA

I had my BR on 8/24/15 so I'm approx 3 weeks post-op...my surgeon recommended me to tape the incisions to aid with healing and scarring. He also used skin glue to reinforce the stitches, when can I expect for the skin glue to come off..everything is so itchy and scabby. I just want to feel normal again! :)
