Scar management is an important aspect of post-surgical care, and there are several strategies to minimize the appearance of scars. Your plastic surgeon will provide specific guidance tailored to your situation, which may include recommendations for silicone-based creams or sheets, gentle massage techniques, keeping the incision site protected from the sun, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Additionally, certain treatments such as laser therapy or corticosteroid injections may be considered if necessary. Following your surgeon’s instructions diligently and attending regular follow-up appointments will help ensure the best possible scar healing and minimize their appearance over time.
