WORTH IT$17,600
My scar is flat, thin and can be hidden under a string bikini bottom! What more could I ask for?

20 more days of Embrace tape and then I'll be out. Contemplating ordering another 60 day treatment, but they are soooooo expensive.

It's all about the milestones! I feel great, even with the swelling. The new confidence is amazing but still a foreign thing to me. Still using Embrace tape and I'm really loving how my scar is looking. I'll be 7 weeks in one day.

Embrace tape info

Couldn't find much info on this until recently (on this site as a matter of fact) so I wanted to share. Yes, it's normal for wrinkles to develop in the tape and on your skin, as well as air pockets with some condensation! Here is a quote from a realself PS.

After applying Embrace Active Scar Defense, it is normal to see rippling and condensation. Rippling or wrinkling of the active scar device is a sign that it is conforming to your skin. As long as the edges are fully adhered to your skin, it is still working and alleviating tension with your incision. Regarding condensation, this is also normal and most often occurs after showering or strenuous activity. The important thing to make sure of is that the edges are sealed. If not, and a water pocket has formed inside the dressing, it is time to remove Embrace.
