Tanning post op

Hi. Before I get any back lash from this question.. I know it's not good for you and I never tan more than 5 sessions or so to get a base tan which makes me feel a whole lot better about myself... . Any idea if you can tan 3 weeks post op? I will ask my surgeon when I see her next Monday but just curious if anyone has tanned.
