Can you recommend a good anti itch cream to use after lipo?

Question

Wondering about creams or lotions that I can get in Canada that's good for healing and itching skin from lipo . I'm wearing my garment and the itching is driving me crazy

Vincent N. Zubowicz, MD · Answer

Itching after liposuction probably cannot be aided by a cream. Benadryl cream might be tried but in oral dose would be better if histamine is a mediator. The best solution is to put cool compresses on the area that is itching.

Adam C. Augenstein, MD · Answer

Good options for itching are topical 1% hydrocortisone, oral dyphenydramine, or oral hydroxyzine. If you you are only itching where the garment is touching your skin, you may be having a reaction to that material. try wearing a layer, such as an old T-shirt, between your skin and the garment.
