I tanned about 6 weeks post op & had no trouble at all. I would ask you doctor. My doctor said to wait until my incisions had healed or completely scabbed over. Honestly scarring wasn't an issue for me because after 2 c-sections, gallbladder surgey, & now LapBand surgery, I have plenty of scars (hopefully a little plastic surgery is in my future)
Let your incisions heal then tan in moderation-
