Back to surgery clinic today, this time thankfully there was not a 3 hour wait, we got in pretty much right on time. Dr. Wong is pleased with how Taylor's incision has healed and he has given us several sheets of DuoDERM dressing. We just cut it with rounded edges a little larger than the scar itself and stick it over like a bandaid, and change it every 5 to 7 days. There's something in it that will help the scar heal nicely, turn white, and prevent the line from thickening. He also gave us the name of a scar treatment gel in the US for us to order, called Dermatix, so we have ordered that too.
Dr. Wong is my kids surgeon for their belly button hernias... the assume Keziah's will heal it's self but Jared's will most likely need surgery before kindergarton. How was he with post-op? I know that he has been great at all our appointments so far....
