If I get Embrace after Tummy Tuck, can I use them all over from hip to hip or just for the middle section?

Embrace Active Scar Defense is a great scar solution because it addresses one of the main factors of scar formation - tension. It is most important to place the active scar device in the middle of your scar, where there is the most tension. However, it is beneficial to have Embrace placed on the entire scar so that the tension can be relieved along the entire incision. This can only help further diminish scar lines and promote healing. The number of strips needed depends on the length of your scar. It is important to address how to use Embrace with your board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck in your research!

We routinely recommend using Embrace all over the incision and so you might need 3 of the longest pieces to cover the entire incision. I continue to see really great results using this protocol! Best, Dr. Aldo
