I'm on day 12 after having rhinoplasty. I have been cleaning my skin with gentle cleansing wipes for sensitive . Is this safe? Should I be using facial wash instead?

Answer: Post Rhinoplasty Cleansing Questions Dear Neyney12, I would speak with your surgeons office as to what their protocol is for cleansing the skin after splint removal. Personally, I have an aesthetician in the office who consults with any patients who have questions or concerns. Typically she will review the patient's current cleansing products and either advise them to keep using their current regimen or will suggest other products depending on the problem. It is a very personalized situation depending on each patients skin type and needs. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.
