Silicone strips
Mar 10, 2019
Always best to consult with your surgeon.  Looks like the skin is irritated and likely macerated which means kept too moist.  Sometimes patients can take a break and keep the strips on majority of the day and take breaks so the skin has time to breathe and dry.     But discuss first with your surgeon.
