17 August 2020AFTERCARE INFORMATION – ellipse excision
4 September 2020For shave excisions we normally advise the following aftercare:
- If you have a dressing you will be told when it can be removed;
- Vaseline is normally then applied to keep the wound moist for 1 to 2 weeks until healed;
- The wound will be red for 2 to 3 weeks, which gradually settles over the next few months;
- Massaging with oils (bio-oil) or moisturising (dermatix) creams is advisable after 2 to 3 weeks to help reduce any scarring;
- If there is any increasing pain or redness, consult your doctor
