I'm about 2 months out and I've gone a few times. People will say what they want but bottom line is, I'm not trying to be pale in my wedding dress and I work 2 jobs, 7 days a week so getting to the beach is about hard.


I was at the beach in three weeks. But all my scars were covered. I would suggest keeping them covered for now.

I would suggest never as they are a major cause of skin cancer, which is why they are banned in Australia.


How long should I wait to get in the tanning bed after surgery?

Consider spray tanning vs. tanning bed

When I was in my 20's I went to a tanning salon, loved being tan and loved laying out in the sun. Now, in my 50's, still love being tan but care more about age spots, wrinkles and skin cancer. Since surgery I've been using Jergens self tanner. Love it, everyone at work says I'm glowing and it isnt aging my skin. Think about it, just saying.
