I'm 9 days post op, I've lost 24lbs (including my pre op 2 week diet) and feeling great. I'm a bit concerned about the glue on my incisions starting to peel off? Is it too soon? I've noticed after I shower a little bit comes off around the edges each time and I want to shower today but worried about all of the glue coming off... When did your glue start to flake off?

Usually lasts about a week....

I actually picked mine off after about a week. I could tell my incisions were closed, and the glue was super itchey so I scrubbed and peeled it off.

On my 1st week post op visit the nurse peel them off.

I'm 6 days out and still have little bits. Super itchy , but itchy is a sign of healing. Doc said LEAVE IT BE! And I have. I shower every day and it's almost gone. I've healed wonderfully so far:) good luck to u!!

Mine were stuck on good for about 10 days, which is also how long the dissolving stitches last. I think you're okay.

I think mine started coming off the second week too. I'm almost 3 weeks post op and all the glue is gone.

I'm 12 days post op and its gone.
