Thank you for your question. Surgery tape can sometimes be uncomfortable, but not to the point that it is cutting off circulation. I would recommend that you visit your plastic surgeon for an in-person assessment. All the best,
Surgery tape should not feel so tight that it is cutting off circulation. It most likely has tension on it due to swelling, but whether or not it needs to be adjusted can only be determined by seeing you in person. I recommend seeing your surgeon to make sure everything is fine, and to have him/her adjust the dressing to make sure you're comfortable. When tape is too tight or being pulled, it can result in blisters. If that happens you just want to make sure you care for the open wounds from the blisters with dressing changes until they are healed.
