How to treat breast lift scar with poor healing? (Photo)

Asked By:ktgoogle in Brisbane, CA

Is it ok to use a hydro colloid dressing like duoderm on my mastoplexy wound? I'm 3 weeks post op and have this area of slough. I went into the clinic and saw the RN. I have been advised to keep using the fixomull tape over my scars including this area that is not healing well and change weekly. I was wondering if duoderm would be better - to help remove the Slough and speed wound healing. I'm not due to see my Dr for another couple of weeks
