I have been wearing the Embrace Scar Therapy patch for a few days. I am 3 weeks post op TT. The nurse at my doctor's office applied it for me the first time and since the second or third day I have been seeing rippling and condensation around the edges of the patch and condensation underneath it. Is it still working if it looks like this? I have been scouring the internet for answers but I cannot find any.

Thank you for your inquiry! Scar creams can be used on scars to minimize appearance as well as silicone scar sheets like embrace. The dressings can be cut and placed over areola scars to help decrease appearance of the scars as they mature.
