Can I Use Retin-a on Fresh Liposuction Scars?

Asked By:houston9882 in USA

I just had my stitches taken out for a liposuction procedure. I currently use retin-a .04% micro for acne scars on my face with good results. I've read on here that retin-a works on scars but didn't see anything about recent, day old scars. thanks
