Rhinoplasty tape quickly peeling off (Day 4 and it's almost off)

hugh44
It's day 4 after my rhinoplasty and my tape is hanging by a thread at this point. I have oily skin so it almost immediately started to peel. It really didn't seem like a concern to me, as I figured the tape was simply a measure to reduce swelling. But my rhinoplasty was to raise the tip, so I began to worry that maybe the tape was helping mold or hold the raised tip. Well the tape is all but supporting now and almost off, and since it's Saturday my surgeons office is closed. What should I do?
