Has Anyone Tried Vitamin K Cream to Speed Up Bruise Healing?

I’m a newbie so I may be wrong when I say that I haven’t read anywhere in this forum that Vitamin K cream is the bomb when it comes to making deep bruises disappear in a matter of days, not weeks! I had a SMAS as well as upper and lower eyelid surgery about a month ago. I was pretty banged up with bruises around my eyes, cheeks, chin and neck. Add swelling to the bruising and I looked like I’d been to war and lost it. Not a pretty picture to say the least. Anyways, 5 days after my surgery I went back to my surgeon’s office to get the stitches around my eyes removed. Before leaving, the nurse gave me a little jar with some cream in it and told me to put it on the bruises twice a day. She said it was a Vitamin K product and that it works wonders on bruises. I was skeptical at first because I bruise easily and black and blue marks seem to last a long time on me. A few days after applying this cream, the bruises began to disappear and the next week when I went back for a checkup, I only had a lingering bruise on the side of my neck and on the chin. So, if you’re considering having a facelift or had one done recently, make sure you ask your doctor about vitamin K cream or get it online yourself. (Vitamin-K or Derma-K Clarifying Cream). I’m definitely buying it to keep it on hand when needed in the future. Hope this info helps.
