How to prevent the recovery of scar hyperplasia after cesarean section
Doctor's suggestion: Stretching elastic belt after delivery and wearing tights can effectively slow down scar hyperplasia. "What should I do?" After caesarean section, the scar on the stomach increased a little, and the new mother was inevitably a little disappointed and no longer perfect. So, they began to look everywhere for "scar removal" tips. But if you look at the stars on TV, such as Mommy Cecilia Cheung and Little S, they all have caesarean sections, and their bodies are still perfect. Why is this? It turned out that they not only paid attention to scientific nutrition during pregnancy, but also prepared for scar repair after cesarean section in advance. Natural delivery of scar constitution is the best choice. As the due date approached, Sharla Cheung, who had been expecting to see the baby in her belly, suddenly got scared. Finally, she couldn't resist the pressure and walked into the Affiliated Hospital of Zhengda I and went to the plastic surgery department. "I'm not afraid of having children, because only when it hurts can I realize the greatness of being a mother. I am worried that I can't give birth naturally, and I am also worried about the scars left on my stomach after caesarean section. " Sharla Cheung said, and rolled up his sleeves, and there was a pimple on his right arm, which was similar in color and size to red beans. "I have a scar constitution. Whenever the wound heals, the scar on the surface will increase continuously, which is not only unsightly, but also itchy. " "For people with scar constitution, the scar proliferates infinitely outward, highlighting the surface layer of the skin, and the affected area still feels red, painful and itchy." Liu Lin, chief physician of plastic surgery department of Zhengda First Affiliated Hospital, told her why some women have only one line left on their stomachs after cesarean section, while others are "earthworms". Scar constitution is one of the reasons. In addition, the choice of incision and the tension of wound are also related to the beauty and ugliness of scar. Therefore, for people with scar constitution, natural delivery is the best choice to avoid surgical scars. Intradermal suture reduces scar formation "I also want to give birth naturally, but there are problems such as abnormal fetal position. What should I do if I have to have a cesarean section?" Sharla Cheung asked. "Since the mode of production and skin constitution are difficult to change, we can only work hard on incision selection and wound tension." Liu Lin said that this is a good "scar prevention" means for all pregnant women. In addition, if the doctor is informed in advance of his wish to "reduce surgical scars", he can choose to use absorbable suture during the operation, so that it is not necessary to remove the suture after the wound heals, and the occurrence of scars can also be reduced. "Is there anything particular about postoperative care?" Liu Lin said that the abdominal belt should be used immediately after cesarean section; Wearing tights after stitches removal can prevent scar hyperplasia. This is because the abdominal belt and tights continue to pressurize the scar, causing local hypoxia of the scar, thus inhibiting its growth. However, the abdominal belt should not be too tight after cesarean section, and it can be slightly tight after 42 days. In addition, the new mother changed the dressing of the wound in time to avoid wound infection and promote safe wound healing; Avoid strenuous activities, do not overstretch or bend your body sideways, and take a lateral position and bend your body slightly at rest to reduce wound tension. "Don't remove the scar scab prematurely because it itches and hurts, which will delay the scar repair." Liu Lin said that the quality of postpartum care directly affects scar repair. The wound becomes an earthworm and can be surgically removed. "I am a scar constitution. Will the postoperative scar be obvious? " Sharla Cheung asked if there was a final solution. "Common methods include drug scar removal, steroid injection and surgical scar removal," liu ling said. Because of postpartum breastfeeding, using drugs to remove scars may affect the baby's health. Therefore, it is not recommended during lactation. After feeding, you can choose a scar-removing product with a drug name, which can soften and inhibit scar hyperplasia. In addition, steroid injection can reduce scars, but the injection dose should not be too large, otherwise it will have an impact on the whole system. Therefore, this kind of scar removal is only suitable for small scars such as "mung beans", and the scars left by cesarean section are not suitable for use. In contrast, surgical scar removal is a good choice. First remove the scar, then peel off the skin and subcutaneous tissue to reduce the wound tension, and then use the method of cosmetic suture to minimize and dilute the scar. "When removing scars, you can also tighten your loose stomach and make it flat." However, liu ling reminded that even the best technology can't be scarred, and it can only be diluted as much as possible.
