Recovery Tips After Sun Damage Restoration

Leo Niva

If you are a person who loved to get the golden glow of a tan when you were young or frequently got sunburned because you were too busy to put on sunscreen, then you might find, after several years, that your skin is not perfectly smooth anymore. The sun may have done damage to your skin that is not reversible by any topical means. You might decide that you need surgery to repair the damage. One of the most common types of sun damage restoration surgeries is a facial peel. Here are some steps for a quick recovery after such a procedure.

1. Change the Dressing As Instructed

The first step that you are going to need to follow is to change the dressing as you are instructed. Your doctor will likely send you home with a dressing set and extra materials, or give you a list of materials that you are going to need in order to make sure that your skin heals smoothly. You want to follow these instructions exactly because your doctor is going to know your skin and will be able to give you the best advice.

2. Use Moisturizer

Don't be afraid to use moisturizer around the areas where your dressing is located. Right after a facial peel, your skin might feel tight due to swelling or it might start to crust over. In order to make sure that you heal quickly, you are going to want to keep the rest of your skin around that area as supple as possible. Using moisturizer will allow the rest of your skin to accommodate the areas of the skin that are swelling without difficulty and will reduce the pain that you feel. Talk to your doctor for particular brands of moisturizer that you should use.

3. Eat Soft Foods for a Few Days

You are going to want to make sure that you eat soft foods for a day or two following your procedure in order to avoid putting undue stress on the skin. If you eat steak, you will end up chewing each piece for an extended period of time, possibly cracking the crusts that might have formed and delaying the healing process. If you eat soft foods like yogurt, you can avoid this cracking and ensure that your skin heals as quickly as possible.

For more information, talk to your doctor. He or she will be able to guide you through the recovery process. For more information about recovering from facial surgery, contact a clinic like Hecht Aesthetic Center.
