I've read some negative reviews, advising against the use of hydrogen peroxide?
Answer: Aftercare protocols Thank you for your question.All clinics/surgeons have different aftercare protocols and each policy would work the best for them so I would go by the advice your consultant has given you.My patients are advised not to put anything on there incision sites until completely healed. Just wash with warm water.

Answer: Lower Facelift and Hydrogen Peroxide I recommend using hydrogen peroxide on the incisions on a facelift for the first 3 days to clean. After the first 3 days, I would recommend using saline to clean incisions. The technique used to close the incisions is much more important that the method to clean the incisions. A tension less closure and location of the incisions are the most important consideration in ensuring the incisions look beautiful after surgery.I hope this helps.

Answer: Hydrogen peroxide Hydrogen peroxide on the incisions is helpful to help keep a wound free of dried and crusted blood. There is a theoretical possibility that it can affect the healing of a wound, but as long as it is used in moderation, it should not affect the result of the healing. For use along an incision, there is no reason why peroxide cannot be used to help keep the wound clean and free of blood.

Answer: Use of Hydrogen Peroxide If a wound has dried blood, or is otherwise very crusty, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) can be useful for cleaning in limited amounts. However, in general H2O2 is a wound healing deterrent due to release of free radicals in the cleansing process. The best cleanser for most situations in saline, followed by an emollient such as aquaphor.
