How do I minimize the effects of staples creating a mutilation?

I just have a double transplant. The scar is drastically long. I would like to treat it to make well faster and better, any ideasHow do I minimize the effects of staples creating a mutilation?
Get the staples out as soon as possible...i.e. as soon as your doctor is liable to take them out.
Too untimely...and the would could open up...cause infection and leave a most unpleasant mutilation.
But wait too long...and the holes of the staples will confer on more prominent scars.
Push your doctor to remove them as impulsive as possible within the reach they are willing...as your doctor is more concerned roughly speaking the first problem and probably not worried as much about the second. Besides, doctors work inside a range that the medical books recommend...adjectives based on where on earth the staples (or sutures) were placed...resembling 4-6 days on the face versus 7-11 days on the scalp, etc.
-
Besides this, in attendance is some suggestion that Vitamin E helps next to wound healing and minimization of scarring. Not formally proven...but some antecdotal evidence would suggest that getting some Vitamin E gel cap...and cutting them begin and putting the Vitamin E gel onto the areas could help. But doctors might baulk at this, thinking you might be more prone to introduce germs...and cause an infection...
But its a thought...and I know masses who swear by it.

But getting the staples out as soon as possible is definitely a polite idea.
You can't do anything to treat the blemish until it is COMPLETELY healed. The deformity will shrink perceptibly over time but it is what it is.
