It is best to avoid sun exposure on any surgical wound for at least six weeks. All stitches will be taken out by eight to ten days after the operation. You may go back to work between day eight and eleven. After three weeks, you may resume all sporting activities. Most visible signs of surgery should fade completely within two to three weeks.
Complications are rare.
Infection, bleeding, and damage to important structures such as nerves in the operating area may occur. The risk of complications can be reduced by closely following the surgeon's instructions both before and after surgery. All rights reserved.
