Does anyone know how to get the glue/sticky stuff off your skin? I tried alcohol and tonight I tried Vaseline and nothing works. I am dying to get it off because it makes my incisions look way worse than they actually are. I am 2 1/2 weeks post op and the strips have been off for a week.

If and only if incisions are fully healed... finger nail polish remover will take off the glue.

I will try that. I am not even trying to remove it from the scar itself, just the surrounding area. Thanks for the tip!

I was able to.get mine off with rubbing alcohol and a cotton ball. I just had to rub really hard. Good luck.

I was afraid to rub it really hard cause I kept envisioning it opening back up, lol!

Mine just wore off after many days of showering and scrubbing with wash cloth. Let it heal, unless you strip often. lol

i had that same issue...eventually when using a soft cloth, it came off..

I will try all tips after my shower later. Trying to get as much cleaning done as possible today. It's just kind of funny because my incisions really don't look bad at all, surprisingly. It is the glue that makes it look nasty.

you can get adhesive remover from the pharmacy which is way safer to use and less of an irritant to the area.

Thank you. I didn't even know there was such a thing.

You can find it in the aisle where they sell alcohol. If you cant find it then ask the pharmacist they will direct you. It might be about 4 bucks a box but it stays good for a long time before it expires.

I know! It SO makes things look worse than they are!
