Answer: Breast Augmentation Postoperative Care Every surgeon has their own madness about scars and tapes. I generally place special tape over the entire incision in the operating room. My patients are allowed to shower 48 hrs after the surgery and can get their tapes wet. I just ask them to dry them fully, even blow dry on cool air after wards. The tapes generally stay on around 14 days, at that point I remove them and ask the patient to wash the area over the next week or so. They may start scar treatment at about 4 weeks post op.

Answer: Incision Line Care after Breast Augmentation? You will find that different plastic surgeons may have different thoughts about incision line care. Even though each surgeon may have their preferences, this does not mean that there is a right or wrong way of doing things. I would suggest that you follow your own plastic surgeons recommendations but do not hesitate to communicate your questions/concerns/confusion with him. Best wishes.
