Collagen
Patients will receive 3 to 5 collagen infiltrations in the scar once per week. Patients with episiotomy will receive 3 collagen infiltrations while patients who underwent a cesarean section will receive 5 collagen infiltrations. The infiltration will be done by tunneling technique, that is, it will be applied along the scar, placing the needle almost tangential to the entire length of the area, then it will be injected and at the same time the needle will be removed. Infiltrations will be carried out intradermally, previously performing asepsis in the area to be infiltrated. 2 ml syringes will be used to infiltrate the episiotomy scars (we will use 1 vial of 2 ml ) and 5 ml for cesarean scars (2 vials of 2 ml ) and sterile needles of 30G, 13mm.
Rehabilitation sessions
Patients will receive the conventional treatment of 8 rehabilitation sessions with massage therapy techniques, muscle stretches and fascial work. The rehabilitation sessions will always be carried out by the same physiotherapist specialized in pelvic floor. There will be two sessions per week for four weeks. The sessions will last 45 minutes.
