    I feel your pain but I go on sunbeds and I know it’s going to be a while before I can do that. I think you should be fine with the fake tan as long as you don’t get it on your wounds. You might just have to have some white patches! x

    There’s a good reason why they don’t advise fake tanning after the op. Even when you shower, all dirty water runs down into the incisions. It can cause infections etc plus if you can’t shower properly yet, you may end up with patches.
    I feel your pain hun as I’m a sunbed lover, but I do understand I need to wait a bit longer for it. The good thing is that it’s winter and we can cover not tanned body xx

    My consultant told me it should be about a year before going for a sunbed Tor as it could cause the scars to go purple! Xx
