I'm planning a Hetters peel, but have some lingering concerns as I will be moving to Australia and living a very outdoors, sporty lifestyle. I understand I'll need to avoid the sun for several months after the procedure, and I always wear sunblock anyway, but will I always be sensitive to the sun? In the future, I want to be able to swim, cycle and run outdoors, and even early in the morning the UV is likely to be high there. Is the skin more fragile even after 9-12 months?
