Tape on breast lift incisions - how can I bring this up with my surgeon?

Asked By:Warmhearted430931 in Ft. Liberty, North Carolina

I’ve found a great doctor for my breast lift with implants. I love everything but she takes the tape off the incisions after one week. And I’ve seen on here and also studies that show ongoing taping for at least 6 weeks helps the incisions and can result in flatter scars. I’m not sure how to bring this up
