How Long After Surgery Can You Use Scar Cream?

Scars are a natural part of the post-surgery healing process, but their appearance can often be reduced with the right care. Typically, scar creams can be applied about three weeks after surgery, once the incision has fully healed, pending your surgeon’s approval. This article provides tips on starting scar treatment and suggests home remedies, such as massaging with Vitamin E, lemon juice, and lavender oil, to aid in scar fading. Using these natural ingredients alongside scar cream can promote hydration, reduce redness, and help make scars less visible, supporting the skin’s healing journey.
