Suggest Ointment To Reduce Itching And Redness After Face Lift

I had my face labored and the Dr gave me a cream to use once the scabs were gone. I can t find the tube she gave me and her office is closed. I think it was something like cordasporen ointment. Do you know what it is so I can get some at the store tonight. She said it would help the itching and help the redness go away faster. Ty

Hello,

You can take antihistamines like pheneramine for itching. You can also apply low potency steroid creams like betamethasone also. If symptoms persist better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your queries. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
