Hello, I am 3 weeks pre TT and have been exfoliating my stomach a few times a week, using bio oil twice a day and a homemade mask consisting of red Moroccan clay, black tea, coffee and witch hazel extract to help tighten the skin once a day. I planned on stopping all three when I am 2 weeks pre op. Is this safe or am I potentially making the skin worse and/or weaker? I have read tons of advice on how to treat the skin post but not pre. Thank you in advance for your opinion.

Signs of infection are usually redness, excessive warmth and possibly pus discharge in the affected area. Nausea is most likely caused by the medications you’re on. I suggest you ask your surgeon about this. An alternative pain medication may be prescribed.
