Care For Areola Scar After Breast Augmentation

After breast augmentation surgery, there are scars on the areolas. When treated properly, these scars will fade and be unnoticeable. When left unattended, however, the scars will become permanent.








Instructions








1. Apply scar treatment cream in the morning as you get ready. It should be rubbed onto the scar gently until it is fully absorbed into the skin. Only apply the cream after the wound has completely closed and scarred over.


2. Apply scar reduction silicone sheets to your bare breasts before getting dressed. The sheets are self-adhesive and cover the areola scars. They help reduce scars in two ways: First, the sheets press down on the scar, making it part of the skin so the scar goes down. Second, it acts as a shield against fabrics that may rub against the scar, making it reopen.


3. Remove the silicone sheets at the end of the day. For eight hours a day, the skin needs to be able to breathe.


4. Apply the scar treatment cream for a second time before going to bed.
