So, how long after my surgery should I wait before using lotion on my tummy? Obviously the incisions have to heal before anything can touch them, how long did that take for you guys?

I waited till my steri-strips fell off from surgery. Then I started using Mederma on my scars and lotion. Hope this helps!
