1 week post op check up?! Started by: daniellejade

i was told at my 7 day check I could shower but to try not to get the new steri strips wet. If I did to dry myself under my boobs where my scar is with my hair dryer on a cool setting. I also bought myself some steri strips so I could just replace them. I was told I could remove them completely after the following 4 days from my check up. i still dry my scars after my baths with the hair dryer as it doesnt rub on your scar. Just make sure they are completely dry hun. Enjoy your shower when you get it.xx

When you say tape do you mean the medical, spongy tape that wraps around your boobs to help them drop? Even though they look trapped and distorted!

I took it off late last night, i’m day 4 today (if you include the surgery date), if you don’t then i’m a bad girl! Lol. I had to take it off, it smelt weird and made me feel grubby. And made my boobs look funny which made me feel like I didn’t like them. You can take that off day 4 and you well be told what to do regarding your incision site at your post op xx
