Roughly 2 months. My proximal fold is still raised. I’m alternating silicone scar tape, hydrocholloid, and band-aids with Vaseline. Breaks between to let the skin dry, the scar tape for my thumb itself, but the others for over my nail fold itself to keep it hydrated.i still catch myself picking occasionally but I haven’t touched the cuticles. No cutting. Regular gentle manicures at home with a weekly warm jojoba oil soak. Need to be better about lotion during the day.

Proud of myself 😊
