Dermabond Wound Reopened

2017-06-24 02:44:33
I fell and cut my face on 6/17. That same day I went and got it glued shut with dermabond as well as steri stripped. On 6/23 I applied a bandaid to the wound and when I removed the badaid it pulled off the scab that was forming, the dermabond and steri strip. It has not fully healed. Do I go get it reglued or just wait for it to heal on its own?
