Incision Care

• • Typically, there are no dressings and the incisions are closed with dissolvable sutures and skin glue.
  • If dressings are present, remove them when you get home. 
  • If Steri Strips are present, leave them on for 10-14 days.
  • You can shower the morning after surgery and it’s ok to get the incisions wet.
  • No baths or swimming for 14 days.
  • If you had gastric bypass, click below for special info pertaining to incisional pain after surgery!

If you have excessive drainage or redness, call the office and/or:

• email a pic of your incision to provider@curryweightloss.com
• text a pic of your incision to 513-572-1718
