To speed your recovery and aid the healing process;

• Apply prescribed treatments: Use any prescribed creams, gels, or dressings as directed by your doctor.
• Avoid irritation: Avoid tight clothing or activities that may rub or put pressure on the treated area.
• Monitor for changes: Watch for any signs of infection or changes in the scar, and follow up with your healthcare provider as needed.
