    I managed to keep mine very clean and dry because I didn’t want to do th two hour journey for the week po check. My bandage stayed on perfectly for two weeks. I think the longer you leave them untouched the better it is. I was very bruised and on my two week check w Mario and nurse they took off the bandages left on the strips and trimmed my stitches. Then they put on waterproof plasters on me so I cd shower and a week later I peeled them off as they were getting frayed and coming off. That was at three weeks. So I didn’t see the scars for three weeks. Good thing too because they really shocked me when I saw them So iwd strongly advise you leave dressings on for as long as possible for lots of reasons but keep them clean anddry. Always keep bra on even in bath to help keep stitches dry. Ultimately it’s for the best!!! Xxxxx
