evilpixie20 9 Posted October 29, 2019 I'll be 3 weeks post OP tomorrow and my incision glue is still on. I've tag it should only stay like a week. Should I do something to take it off at this point? It is starting to peel at the edges a little. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prestonandme 107 Posted October 30, 2019 I was told the same thing but mine stayed tight on until four weeks post-surgery, when it mostly flaked off and then the rest easily stripped off. 2 evilpixie20 and catchthewind reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bianca S. 195 Posted October 30, 2019 Let it peel on its own! You don’t want to pull out a stitch and get a hole (that’s what happened to me by tugging on the peels) it’ll make a bigger scar. 1 catchthewind reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nonnaof4 54 Posted November 4, 2019 I'm 3 weeks post op as well and I still have some glue on a couple incisions. Definitely just leave it alone and let it fall off. I had one rub on my underwear and come off too soon and wound up with a small infection in that one. The ones that have fallen off on there own are healing nicely and don't look like they will leave much of a scar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lynda486 784 Posted November 4, 2019 I am six weeks out and was told to trim off the glue as it starts to peel, but don't pull it off yourself. I just trimmed of the last of my glue yesterday. 1 catchthewind reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
