Red lines after strapping comes off!

Hey girls 🙂

I had my strapping off yesterday and I’m so so happy with the results but I’m worried about the red lines that are just above my incisions between them and my nipples. I don’t generally get stretch marks (thank god) and the tops of my boobs are really smooth and clear but I’m worried about these! I asked my nurse if they were and she said no, they’re just marks where the strapping was stuck and will disappear but I’m panicking now incase they don’t and they stay like it. They look horrible! Did anyone else have them? Or similar? Did they go away? I’m
hoping it’s just where it’s been on so tight it’s just marked!

I have attached pic 🙂

They don’t look like stretchmarks. It seems that’s where the skin was pinched with the strapping so it will heal and go away, don’t worry. Keep them clean and don’t put any products on in case they get septic…

@yana thank you!! Just being paranoid 🙂 it’s not broken skin at all it’s completely smooth, that’s why I was worrying. They look like scratches but there’s no uneven or broken skin there!

I had them all over my boobs when the strapping came off, it’s just where the tape has pinched the skin – they’ll go away in about a week don’t worry, they’re not stretch marks 🙂 xx

I had the same Hun and the nurse pointed them out and told me they would go…. That was a week ago and they have faded loads. Hope this helps xx

@tracyface @tanyacolk91 thank you so much girls! Massively put my mind at rest 🙂 hope yours are going amazing xx

I had this mainly under my armpits, it went after a few weeks, turned into quite dry skin patches for a while also x

@jonesyc oh really? I’ll keep an eye on them then and make sure they don’t! Thank you 🙂 x
