The last thing I want to do is mess anything up or harm my implants. I'm curious when can I start applying self tanner on my chest??? I'm exactly at 14 days since my surgery! (425l 475r silicone unders)
Answer: Tanning post op Keep the sun away from scars is your best bet. Scars behave differently in different people and can become too dark permanently (hyperpigmentation or dyschromia) if exposed to the sun. Better to spray tan if you want to hide it. Definitely use a strong SPF (>30) sunscreen on it even though it is hidden by your bathing suit as some sun goes through the fabric.#tanningpostop#scarmanagement

Answer: Tanner can permanently darken incisions Once the incision is completely healed a tanning lotion would be okay, although when the incisions are still fresh, pigment can collect and permanently darken them. You may want to wait about a year until the incisions are mature before you apply tanner. However, please ask your surgeon for their advice.

Answer: Breast Enhancement I would say three weeks to prevent unknown consequences that would happen with the lotion getting into a healing wound
