To prevent scar formation, proper wound care is essential. Avoid consuming spicy and irritating foods. Maintain good hygiene around the eyes to prevent bacterial infections, which may increase the likelihood of scarring. Under a doctor's guidance, topical anti-scar medications can also be applied for prevention. Commonly used medications include silicone gels and growth factor gels.
