During the initial stages of healing, it is generally recommended to avoid applying creams, lotions, or other topical products directly on your incision sites. Your surgeon will provide specific instructions on when it is safe to begin using these products, as using them too early may interfere with the healing process. It’s important to follow your surgeon’s guidance to ensure proper healing and minimize the risk of complications.
