What is a one-sentence summary of the following article?
Gently washed the newly exposed skin with warm water and antibacterial soap. Pat dry with a clean, soft towel when done.  Gently lather the area with antibacterial soap and warm water for 30 to 40 seconds. Rinse the soap away, then clean the area again for another 30 to 40 seconds in the same manner. Patting the area dry, rather than scrubbing it, prevents the wound from reopening. The physician, nurse, or other healthcare professional in charge of your treatment may have specific instructions regarding the proper care of your wound once the Steri-Strips are off. It is recommended that you check with your healthcare provider for any necessary continuation of care.  If there are no special requirements, you should care for the wound simply by washing it gently and letting it dry completely before covering it with anything (bandages, clothing, etc.). Avoid exposing the wound to sunlight since excess sun can irritate the area and cause the scar to turn red. Depending on your circumstances and the speed at which your wound is healing, your physician or nurse may recommend that you apply more Steri-Strips or another type of bandage over the area for a few more days. Wounds that have been closed with strips and then left open can often become dry. Ask your doctor about a viable cream to apply to keep the area moist and reduce scarring. Creams with silica in them or Vitamin K have been shown to help reduce scarring.

Summary:
Wash the area with antibacterial soap. Talk to your doctor about proper wound care.
