Re: Holiday 8 weeks after op??
It depends on the post-op care your surgeon wants for you Rach.
If you're free to treat boobs as your own from six weeks you'll be fine. Although you will need to be careful with them keeping them covered with a factor 50 on scars (they can pigmentate in the sun) and all over your boobs. Freshly stretched skin is ultra sensitive and will burn very easily.
If you're told 12 weeks in the sports bra then unfortunately the bikini top jet won't offer the right support you need.
You can get around this though by buying pretty crop top style high impact sports bras and then buying bikini bottoms to match. Or a mish mash of colour is more trendy today isn't it.
Hopefully you'll have the former though. Just speak with your surgeon and some are quite flexible and will allow for you to wear your bikini. Xx

Hi I had the ok from my surgeon to go 5 weeks PO, but you would need permission to sunbathe by your surgeon, otherwise they could invalidate your aftercare . Cover your boobs though if you are allowed. The skin is very prone to burning. Xxx

6 months until you can sunbathe/use a sunbed and expose your boobs/chest area, so wouldn't be much of a sunbathing/bikini holiday and could possibly still be in a sports bra x
