The recovery time of the surgical incision has individual variability and is related to the location of the incision, the surgical approach, the presence of postoperative incision complications and the patient’s own healing ability. The healing ability of different parts of the tissue varies, so does the time to fully recover from the surgical incision. Generally, if the surgical incision surface is neat and well aligned and the patient’s skin regeneration ability is strong, the patient’s wound can be completely healed in 2-3 weeks, but pigmentation and scar growth may be left behind. Pigmentation and scarring can take a long time to fully recover and may even remain for life. In some patients with poorly aligned surgical incisions or tissue defects, the recovery time will be prolonged. In addition, the complete recovery time of the surgical incision is prolonged in older patients, diabetic patients and patients with postoperative complications such as infection. The healing of the incision after surgery is crucial to the patient’s recovery. Care should be taken to keep the incision dry and avoid infection, and some patients may be given preoperative prophylactic antibiotics.
