Asked By:kittarwen in New Orleans, LA

I am 25 days post op lower facelift and necklift. I have been using Johnson's Baby Shampoo as my ps suggested, but the last two days it is driving me crazy! itching my scalp, hard to rinse out..ugh. Are there any other suggestions? My incisions are still healing, so I need to be careful and use something mild. Help. My head is driving me crazy...it didn't bother me at first, but now it is awful. Thank you!
