Suggestion: generally, you can start using scar medicine two weeks after stitches are removed, and some people are afraid of using it too early to stimulate the wound.

Hello, according to your description, you have a skin injury on your face, which was debrided and sutured. Now it has healed and taken out stitches, but the wound is still red and swollen. In this case, it is best to wait until the redness and swelling are eliminated before using scar-removing products.

Guiding opinions:

Hello, it usually gets wet in 2 days after taking out stitches. If there is redness and swelling, active anti-infection treatment is needed. I suggest you go to the hospital for a follow-up visit to see if there is a wound infection. I hope my answer can help you.
