I recently had stitches removed from my face. I've heard mixed suggestions on aftercare. Two days after the stitches came out I began to wash and moisturize my face. Is this OK? My doctor told me to wait 2 weeks and then begin to use aloe on it, but I'm afraid that I should not have used lotion on it. What is the best care to minimize the scarring? Should I be using nothing between now and 2 weeks from now?
