Are there supplements or enzymes that can help rhinoplasty recovery/swelling/scar tissue?

January 10, 2019

Some doctors state that formation of scar tissue can sometimes alter the final result of a rhino. In prevention of that happening, are the supplements or enzymes that can help? Such as Serrapeptase, natokinase, or other proteolyctic enzymes. Can these make a difference? And if so, until what point in the recovery are they effective? Thanks!
