Surgical tape burn. What can I do to speed up healing? (Photo)

leila45
I had a breast augmentation 5 weeks ago. Been using surgical tape to cover a small area underneath (spitting sutures) when I removed the tape it took skin with it! Blisters. Oozing but doesn’t hurt isn’t hot. I’m already on Cipro antibiotics as a prevention for another issue and I disinfect and put bacitracin 3x a day. It doesn’t seem to be getting better! Not painful just ugly. What can help speed up healing? I’m afraid it will get infected :(
