Short, practical answers to the questions patients ask most, from Dr. Hossam Mohammed. Each one takes under a minute.

Skin care

Sunscreen every day: how to use SPF properly

Why daily broad-spectrum SPF 30+ is the simplest anti-ageing step, how much to apply, when to reapply, and why cloudy days and windows still count.

  • Broad-spectrum, SPF 30 or higher, every day
  • About two finger-lengths for face and neck
  • Apply 15 minutes before going out; reapply every 2 hours, and after swimming or sweating
  • UV reaches the skin on cloudy days and through windows

After surgery

Scar care after surgery: five steps for a flatter, softer scar

What to do in the first two weeks, when to start silicone, sun protection, massage, and how long scars take to mature.

  • First two weeks: keep the wound clean and dry, follow your surgeon’s dressing plan
  • Once closed and stitches are out: silicone gel or sheets daily for 2–3 months
  • Sun protection (SPF 30+ or cover) for at least a year
  • Gentle massage once healed; scars mature over 12–18 months
