After liposuction, it is important to avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for a certain period of time to allow your incisions and skin to heal properly. Your surgeon will provide specific guidelines, but generally, it is advisable to avoid sun exposure for at least six weeks and use sunscreen with a high SPF when you do expose your skin to the sun to protect the incision sites and minimize the risk of hyperpigmentation.
Can I engage in sun exposure or use tanning beds after liposuction? Are there any precautions or timeframes I should consider?
