how long till i can go on the sunbeds

Im 1 week since my op, should i wait another 2 weeks to go on the sunbeds if i cover my whole bob area up?

I used sunbeds too I think if your whole boons were covered it would be a problem the last thing u want is to risk burning your boobs with the skin stretching it may dry it out a little x

I am so pale it’s awful!! Need some colour!! Xx

I know i cant stand it! Im going on holiday in January i need some colour beforehand! Xx

The nurse told me 6-8 weeks before sunbeds and then cover your scars with plasters after that x

I was back on them 5 days post op , Just had 6 mins every other day for 2 weeks then returned to my normal minutes , I covered my incisions till I was 6 weeks !
If you are a regular sunbed user pre op , then your boobs shouldn’t burn xx

I was told you can go to sun bed a day before the op but post op its a big no-no for 6 weeks. x

They say no as a precaution cus of scars darkening due to the uv tanning and boobs burning!!!
I was back on the beds within days of my 3 cesarean sections , like I said if your an experienced tanner it won’t do any harm at all , like I said just do less mins than normal to let your boobs adjust and keep the scars covered till week 6 , my scars haven’t been covered since week 6 and I will upload a pic in a while of them now at 15 weeks and they are barely visible !!! X
I rub vitamin e oil on my scar and whole boob every evening after my shower and they aren’t dry and I have no stretch marks ! Xx
