Approximately 7 years ago, we used to recommend only saline spray post-op. Then, we found that Graftcyte spray, more often than not, got rid of the redness sooner than saline. There's different factors that may explain why it took longer for you to rid the redness for your first procedure - maybe the incisions were a little bigger, you had a bigger session, or more up front where it's more visible. Either way the redness will subside fairly quickly.
