What is the best cream for lumpectomy scars?
Hi Pearlsasinger,
I am five weeks post op lumpectomy and two lymph nodes removed, also getting ready for radiotherapy in a few weeks. My clinical radiologist has told me to start creaming my chest area ready for that and when I told her I had Baby Aveeno (don’t get Adult, baby is very mild) and also E45 cream she said they were both fine. I have been using the Baby Aveeno and my skin is lovely.
Please ensure your wounds are properly healed and if in any doubt, speak to your Breast Cancer Nurse.
I hope this helps you and my very best wishes for a speedy recovery.
Love and hugs.xxx
