Scar Management
Scar management in post-operative care involves techniques to minimize the appearance of scars after surgery. It includes keeping the wound clean and moist, using silicone sheets or gels, and avoiding sun exposure to protect healing skin. Gentle massage of the scar tissue helps improve flexibility and appearance. It's important to follow your surgeon's instructions regarding care and products. Early and consistent attention to scar management can lead to better healing and reduced visibility of scars over time. Always consult with your healthcare provider for tailored advice specific to your situation.
