Scabs and Dry skin pealing

[Guest]

I am now 8 days post op with Dr. Shapiro. About 30% of my scabs have come out. However, my skin in that area is really, really, dry, flaky, and peeling. Especially after showering once it dries. However, it does not itch. Is this normal???

 

Thanks for any help

I'm going to asume that, when you say pealing, you are saying flaking. Like dandruf. I had the same thing. I was told to use conditoner by the nurse. So I did and it helped emensily.<sp>

I to had the problem. I think it simply casued by the skin sheading in the area due to the trama. It was gone with in a few days...

Antoni,

I'm 16 days pot-op with Dr. Shapiro. I did not have flaking like you describe but I did feel "itchy". Keep using the spray that you were provided with. I also started using Neutrogena Shampoo and then used the spray after I wahed my hair. It will be considerably better in a few days. I still have a little "itchiness" but it gets better each day. Good Luck!

 

gone today...hair tomorrow...
