    So I know after op sunbeds are a no no for a while but what about before op? I’m sure I have read somewhere not to use them 2weeks prior? Has anyone any advice? I am not a big fan of the things and hardly use them just seen as the fake tan is off the cards for a while wanted to look human for my op and the days following. I am the palest person ever! Would i b ok to have a few sessions u think? my op is in two weeks arghhh Xx

    Sunbeds are a no no for 12 months after surgery as the pigmentation of the scar can seriously be messed with until the scar is properly settled , I seriously recommend you doin some Google home work on this as it is true and your surgeon should warn you of this pre-op as it can make your scar a funny colour to the rest of your skin for years into the future this applies for any scar tissue if you really do feel that you need the sun cover your scars up before tanning with tape and sun cream I no I wouldn’t like bright pink scars for years again as this happened on my c-section scar . Every body is different so ask your surgeon for his best advise on the subject
