Dermabond peeling off

Rl25

I gave birth a week ago via C section and they used dermabond to seal the top of my scar, i noticed today the dermabond is already starting to peel off in certain places, and i was just wondering if it's normal? It isnt oozing or smelling, and it doesnt look like the incision is open at all.

It's normal and should start to fall off on its own.

is that the tape they put on or what??

It's a glue, they use it to seal your incison. So you have no stitches on.the outside supposed to make for a better scar. @naliibby2
