6 weeks post facelift. What to use on my scars to help them heal?

At six weeks postop facelift, your incision lines should be closed or epithelialized. Treatment with silicone gel helps keep wounds smooth or flat. Sun block is also important. Almost any over the counter silastic gel with sun block will work.

Dear lr468,
Thank you for your question. I recommend that you seek a repeat in-office evaluation by your surgeon who can perform an exam and then determine what treatment options may best help your wound healing. There are a variety of treatment options available ranging from medical treatments such as topical creams and silicone sheeting to procedures such as PRP injections and microdermabrasion that can improve the appearance of scars.
