A healthy diet supplemented with protein and multitivitamins.

C Instructions.: You will find that every plastic surgeon has a different “protocol” when it comes to incision line care. Many plastic surgeons will use surgical tape and/ or silicone gel-based products. Others may have different protocols. Best to follow your own plastic surgeon's regimen given that he/she is ultimately responsible for your care. Best wishes.
