Using Acne Cream Which Contains Benzoyl Peroxide After Rhinoplasty

Question

Will using an acne cream containing benzoyl peroxide post rhino plasty operation affect my nose?

Michael A. Persky, MD · Answer

Hi,

	You should run your question by your rhinoplasty surgeon, but after about 10 days you should be able to use Benzoyl Peroxide on your nasal skin.  Good luck and be well.

Ask both your surgeon and your dermatologist  when you can use the acne cream with benzoil peroxide after the rhinoplasty. You can probably use the cream on your face immediately after surgery, but not on the nose for 2-3 weeks.
