Surgical Glue

When did yours come off? I am 10 days out and the glue is flaking off like crazy. I just want to peel it off. I actually did peel the two smallest ones and the incisions look fine.

I don't know if it is going to hold up until mid-August when I see my doc for post-op.

Hi! I am 6 days post op and my glue is peeling like crazy as well! I see my Dr. Tuesday and planned to address it then. I have been trying to resist the urge to peel away...but... :unsure: . I would think at 10 days out you should be good but I would definitely check with your Dr's office to be certain.

Good luck to you!

I think it was 2 weeks or less. It got a bit itchy then totally starting coming off.

My surgeon took mine off 9 day out

The dermabond that's on our incision sites are meant to come off naturally. Avoid the urge to peel it off, the longer it stays on the less risk for infection.
