Option 1: Cling Wrap

Step 1: Keep the cling wrap on for at least 2-4 hours.  Depending on the piece, I might recommend keeping it on overnight. If that’s the case, take it off first thing in the morning.

Step 2: When you remove it, do so in the shower or under running water in a sink.  

Step 3: Soap up the area with unscented, antibacterial pump soap.  Unscented because scented soaps could irritate the skin and cause unnecessary discomfort.  Pump soap because bar soap definitely has bacteria on it if it’s used - but even if it’s new, why roll the dice?  Also, would you use the same bar of soap I just used to wash my open wound? Nah.

Step 4: Rinse the area of all soap and pat dry with a clean paper towel or let it air dry.  Do your best to avoid direct contact with bath towels.  You can only do so much in that regard, but they could also have bacteria on them.  Do your best. 

Step 5: Apply a thin sheen of moisturizer.  I will supply you with Vitamin A/D ointment at the end of each session if you want it.  It is the most readily available across common stores and does a good job at healing and maintaining an appropriate amount of moisture for an extended period of time.  

• Repeat steps 3 thru 5 two times a day.  Once in the morning, then again before bed.
