How To Care for Dry Skin After Cosmetic

Surgery

TriDerma’s CEO and founder, Gloria Vanderlaan, began

the journey of establishing her own skincare company in

1992 after undergoing a Dermabrasion procedure. Faced

with an arduous healing process, she searched for a product

to help nourish and heal her skin, but failed to find a great

solution for healing after cosmetic surgery. Instead of

giving up or settling, Vanderlaan embarked on a mission to

create and develop products that would help repair her dry

skin and restore its vitality, without the use of cortisone,

parabens and other potentially damaging ingredients.

Proper post cosmetic surgery skin care is imperative, not

only because it aids in the healing process, but also because

of the long-term effects it can have on the skin. It has been

proven that using products that contain Aloe Vera, vitamin B and antioxidants aid in the skin’s

restorative process, lessen postoperative pain, minimize bruising and swelling, and counteract

tissue-damaging free radicals.

Two of the most common side effects of cosmetic surgery are bruising and skin irritation, such as

redness, itching, peeling and dryness. This is especially true for facial procedures, as the skin on

the face tends to be more sensitive than on other parts of the body. To help eliminate bruising and

irritation quickly, it is recommended to massage the skin with Aloe Vera-based products. Looking

for a product? Try our Post Procedure Total Recovery Complex™, a pain relief cream that helps to

soothe the skin and eliminate irritation.

Additionally, after cosmetic surgery, it is important to protect skin from the sun. Sun exposure has

been known to delay the healing process and can cause scarring and pain. While it’s recommended

to stay indoors after cosmetic surgery, sometimes it is just not possible. If you find yourself

needing to go outside, make sure to wear a hat and lather on sunscreen to minimize your exposure.

If you’re looking for long-lasting sun protection, try our Sunscreen Moisturizer SPF 25.

Staying hydrated is a key factor in recovery. Not only

should those who have undergone cosmetic surgery

drink water to assist in flushing out any toxins that can

accumulate during the surgical process, but also to aid

in the rejuvenation of the skin. For added hydration,

look for products that contain Aloe Vera and zinc, like

our Post Laser Aloe & Zinc Occlusive™.

The cosmetic surgery recovery and healing process can

be challenging, but with proper skin care it can be made

easier. By simply improving your skincare routine

during the weeks following cosmetic surgery, you can

have a significant impact on how long the recovery

process will take, aid in the avoidance of scars and

leave your skin rejuvenated. Products like our

Everyday Bruise Relief™ and Scar Block® are great

tools to assist in this process.
