1 week and 2 days after ba my ps said can take tape off today. Incisions look fine just wondering if there is something else I need to do? They are under breast fold. Antibiotic cream? Buy more scar tape? And can I wipe the sticky tape residue off with a warm wash cloth?

Answer: You Appear to Be Healing Beautifully; Continue to Follow Your Surgeon's Instructions This is a very understandable question. Thank you for putting it in front of the Real Self community. Every surgeon advises on his or her own post-op care instructions. Thus, the first line of action is to follow your surgeon's recommendation. Your relationship with your plastic surgeon doesn't end on day of surgery, as you know. The practice and the surgeon follow you through your post-op process. Following their recommendations is important!

Answer: Breast aug incision tape We like for tape to stay on for a couple weeks if possible. The paper tape helps the incision heal flat and nicely as it takes some of the tension off the incision. You can apply a scar gel like SkinMedica Scar Gel over the tape and the gel will sink in and allow for the properties to take effect. Once the tape is removed, we recommend using the SkinMedical Scare Gel twice a day for 6 months to allow for the best scarring possible.
