Dermabond incision-anyone else?

Hi,

I am 2-3 weeks post op withe dermabond incision. It is getting crusty and coming off a little. I had a little clear drainage too. Not much just a spot. Is this all normal? Anyone tell me their experience with this?

Yes, that's exactly what's supposed to happen.
The glue on one of my incisions fell off at about 7 days but the others behaved exactly as you described and my doc was very, very pleased about how I was healing at my 2 week check-up.

So a tiny bit of seeping is normal?

Yes, it is- that's the stuff scabs are made of- sort of the "glue" our bodies produce naturally to close wounds.

I am 8 days post op and that's sounds like mine.

To better understand the seepage, google "What Are Scabs Made of?"
There are several good explanations of the platelets and protiens involved.

Thanks!

The Dermabond scab in my belly button came off today. Looks great! Can't even tell I had surgery! Vitamin E oil at 14 days and out helps!!
