Cut down on the cleaning, you're doing it too often and it's drying your skin out.

You should clean it at least once a day, in the morning, and probably at night, too. If it's drying out a lot, use a tiny bit of dial antibacterial soap and lots of water, as this will dry out the skin a little less than salt water or bactin.

Well I had my belly done 13 weeks ago

& I had it done before but it wasn't right which was like a year and half ago,

So anyway they said keep it in 12 weeks because you have scar and its more sensitive,

I clean it everyday with salt water & the tea tree oil they said is should.

I've noticed lately that there's a lot of dry skin but my mom said its OK ?
Buttt... the skin that the bars going through looks smaller
So it looks like my bars huge, I had not changed the bar yet as I'm not sure..
Is it normal ? Because it looks like my skins shrunk lol.
& I'm worried because I don't want to have to take it out

Advicee.. pleeeeeeease
:)
