How often/long to wear silicone scar sheeting?

sandiegoss
I've just had a breast revision with anchor lift and got silicone scar strips to help flatten and help the scarring on my incisions. The package says you can wear 6-24h per day. Is wearing it more better? Or should I let my skin have a break?
