They work and stick!
These are great! They easily cover your nipple scars with extra room. After 2 weeks I was cleared to take my surgical tape off and my breasts were still really swollen and I couldn't wear a bra. I put these on and your nipples still stick out in clothes so I would use the surgical tape and tape my nipples down with the tape attached to the silicone sheeting. I felt comfortable and no one could tell I wasn't wearing a bra. I took them off one day and forgot to put them back on and my incisions starting itching really bad after an hour or so. I am not sure how others survive a breast lift without these!I would not recommend cutting these like I would the underneath Epi-Derm Anchor sheets. I have worn them everyday for a month and they still stick great. I went to my surgeons for a follow up and my Dr. and his PA were saying how great my scars looked and asked what I had been using. I am 6 weeks out from my lift and my scars have minimal redness and have healed so great I think in part to these silicone sheeting. I had read other reviews that they don't stick. Make sure not to work out in these. If you are going to sweat then you need to take them off and reapply after your shower. If your skin is clean and dry they should stick perfect. I didn't use there recommended cleaner. I just used a clean cloth with warm water and like I said they are still sticking after a month of wear everyday. Once these loose the stickiness I will be switching to Strataderm silicone scar therapy.

Works Great!
These worked super well. They start to slip if you wear in the shower but you can clean and reapply when you are done. I noticed a big difference in just a few days! I’ve been using silicone tape mostly for my other scars but this seems to work faster.

Worth the money.
I like that you’re able to wash them so they stay clean. If you’re gentle with them and follow instructions, they will last. My scars healed nicely and faster than the few scars I only used topical cream on. The unique round shape lays flat and keeps the scars from raising. I’ve used the strips, which I’m not saying won’t work, but these are way more convenient and worth the cost.

Well made, Good quality, center hole could be smaller
If you have had a lift with an areola incision, the areola dimensions may be smaller than before surgery. Or if you have small areolas to begin with, you will find this product to not cover your incision well. The center opening for the nipple is way too large for mine, and so it does not adequately provide the needed overlap for the inside of the scar, and far too much coverage for the outside of the scar. Only solution is to cut it up into 3-4 sections which doesn't provide quite the same traction. I'd prefer they make the center hole smaller and let people cut the diameter opening bigger as needed, as we do with ostomy products at the hospital. Thinking that for the next set, I will just get the anchor pieces which were enormous, and use the cut ends for the areola pieces. They wash very well. I use J&J baby soap in the shower and remove them using soapy water, clean them with that, then hang them to dry over a cleaned grab bar. I have not had any difficulty or pain removing them. Was not allowed to start until 30 days post-op and there had to be no scabbing. They are ready to go the next night. Surgeon wanted them on only 12 hours for the first 6 weeks. I have worn them like this for 4 weeks and they are still going strong. The adhesion on the donut piece is not as good for me only because they are too large overall, but they far outperform the brand I bought at the drugstore.

Excellent product
Excellent! Ive had to use these daily for over 3 months. They are easy to wash with cold water and soap and STILL have perfect adhesion. Other products were not worth the hassle and cost of disposables add up. These are worth every penny.

perfect post surgery healing for scar
I purchased much more expensive tapes for a anchor breast surgery- this was a better option. no skin irritation, easy on easy off, easy to reuse and clean. I got the entire line after buying these. excellent product and great results!

Made them worse
Nearly 2 years later finally able to write a review. These definitely made the scars worse. Made them uneven and raised. Would not recommend.
