Laparoscopic surgery does not require shaving. Routinely, the patient’s perineum is not shaved during abdominal surgery. If shaving, it is advisable to use hair removal cream because it will not damage the hair follicles and the skin and will not cause bacterial colonization at the skin after using hair removal cream. If you shave with a razor blade, there is a chance that the skin will be scratched and there will be a wound after scratching, which will cause bacteria to colonize the wound and cause infection in the surgical site incision during the procedure. However, if the patient has a lot of body hair or hair within the sterilized area of the surgery, it is necessary to shave the sterilized area of hair.
