Great skin 4 days out

​Hello Everyone,

I am only 4 days post op, but I can say that my skin looks amazing. Not just on my face, but on my body. The nurse even complimented me on my skin that made me smile even with all the pain. Prior to surgery I didn't have horrible skin, but it wasn't clear like it is now. I truely hope this stays! I'll give up some hair loss for clear skin! Has anyone else had something happen with their body that they were happy with after surgery (besides the weight loss)?

This is really refreshing to read! I have Pecos and even on the pill I have had issues keeping my skin clear. Something to look forward to!

I noticed how much clearer my skin was as soon as I looked in the mirror after my surgery!

Interesting. My skin actually freaked out after surgery. I was dry plus breakouts. I had to get a facial which helped.

My skin looked amazing for a few days after surgery! I just assumed that because I had been on a saline drip, I was just really well hydrated. 3 months post-op and it's awful now :(!

I have had a skin condition since I was two called keratosis pilaris and although it's not gone it has gotten substantially better since surgery. My thoughts on this are since surgery I dont eat simple carbs or wheat anymore so maybe some type of systemic sensitivity? Makes sense since it started around 2 years old. Also I dont really need foundation anymore.
