Can I use steristrip wound closure to help the wound close? I’m afraid it will heal as is and the scar will be that much wider... it keeps seperating. Is there anything I can do t this point to close it up and prevent it from healing that way.

Answer: Post-brachioplasty wound breakdown Unfortunately, Steri-Strips will likely not be of much help given the photos that you have sent. I would recommend close follow up with your board-certified plastic surgeon, as these wounds require good local won’t care to allow for eventual healing. Once the scars have completely healed, further improvement may be possible. Best wishes.
