There are a few things that you can do to minimize scaring from facial surgery. One is to make sure that you follow your doctor's instructions carefully for post-operative care. This includes keeping the surgical area clean and dry, and following any other instructions your doctor gives you.

Another thing you can do is to use skin care products that are designed to help reduce the appearance of scars. There are several different types of scar reduction products available, so be sure to ask your doctor or plastic surgeon which ones would be best for you. Finally, remember that it may take several months for the scars to fully heal and fade away. So be patient and keep up with your skin care routine.
