Blister from tape 4 weeks post op. Should I keep it clean and dry or should I put Neosporin on it? (photos)

September 15, 2017
Asked By:Lovee09 in Illinois, IL

I took the rest of my tapes off today because they have been very irritating and itchy and when I woke up I had some drainage that I have not previously had. I now realized that it was a blister that formed under the steri strips. I am not sure if I should keep it clean and dry or if I should put neosporin on it? I am also wondering if it will heal the same color as my areola as it was before the blistering or darker or lighter?

Will the doctor do a nicotine test on the day of surgery for a breast lift and augmentation?
Gary L. Ross, MBChB, FRCS says:

It all depends on the preop tests that the surgeon and the provider perform. Nicotine tests are not routine. The big question would be why are you still smoking if you are having this procedure. If you are smoking you you should postpone of your own well being regardless of the nicotine test.

Richard Bloom, MBBS (Hons), FRACS says:

Hi there, This is one of the biggest controversies in breast surgery. I totally understand where you are coming from, and having a reduction then implants although counter intuitive,  is not as silly as it sounds.Having a breast reduction will not add volume to the upper pole of your breasts. S...
