Surgeon advises washing the buttocks seam after a visit to the hairdresser

Experts emphasize that this advice is not standard in medical guidelines. Nevertheless, it cannot hurt to pay extra attention to skin care after a hairdresser visit, according to the doctor.

The advice was published in an interview with AD.nl. Whether other surgeons agree with this recommendation is not clear.
