    You should be alright with waterproof plasters. I just had a shallow bath and washed my hair over the bath for 7 days. Mine weren’t dissolvable. I had mine out on Tuesday xxxx

    I had Dr Singh mine are dissolvable he told me after my op because I asked about stitches 🙂 I guess every surgeon is different in which stitches they use. xxx

    I had mr traynor and they are dissolvable. I had 7 day check to remove the dressings and then had them trimmed at 14 days. After dressings came off I was allowed to shower but don’t actively wash them with soap or anything just let the water run over them.
