    I’m 13 days PO and have just taken off my steri strips and had my first shower… I feel soooooo clean now haha, I wasn’t sure if I could shampoo my hair in the shower so kind of leaned over… can we use shower gels and shampoo as normal and also when can I start putting cream on my incisions? Any advice ladies? Il try attach a pic of them.xx

    Your incisions are amazing Helen! I can’t get over how neat they are! How the hell did they squeeze an implant in that tiny hole??
    Yeah my nurse said unperfumed shower gel (simple or sanex), short showers not too hot, waging your hair is fine. No creams etc on the incision and try not to touch it. Dab dry with a clean towel and then air dry for 5 mins before dressing xx
