Summary

This study tests a special silicone dressing (Neodyne embrace) to see if it can improve the appearance of abdominal scars after breast reconstruction surgery. Thirty women who had breast reconstruction using tissue from their belly will have half their scar treated with the dressing and the other half left untreated. After 6 months, doctors and patients will compare the scars to see if the dressing helps them heal better.
