I am 9days out of a full tummy tuck and just curious if I should just leave the surgical tape on and let it fall off on its own or peel it off after a certain amount of time? Nurse at the PS office said if it wasn't off after two weeks to peel it off. Not sure I feel comfortable doing that??? Others experiences and knowledge???? I have prosil to start when all is healed.

Answer: Tape on an incision stays on as long as your surgeon thinks it should.
