How Soon Should I Start Using Scar Treatment After Breast Augmentation?

Thank you for your question.Generally, you can start to apply the scar cream 3 weeks after your surgery. Check with your surgeon for his /her instructions regarding this. Best of luck and enjoy your results!

Thank you for your question. Breast incisions can be managed using a multimodal approach:
1) Scar massage - starting as soon as the surgical dressings come off and the incisions are sealed
2) Silicone sheets or scar gels for about six months to year as soon as the glue/tape is off
3) Embrace - a tension reducing dressing for the first 2 months
4) Fractionated lasers to help blend the scar into the background - done as a series, starting about 4 weeks after surgery and repeated every four weeks for six months.
5) Sunscreen to prevent the scars from darkening

Once the skin has epithelialized and the sutures removed, I would suggest using Plato's Scar Serum twice daily on your scars.Best,Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
