Regular Member Portugal Posted March 25 Regular Member Share Posted March 25 I'm going to Florida for a 2 week vacation exactly 2 months post surgery. I would like to know to what extent I can expose my head to the sun during my trip? Is it ok to be out in the sun if I use a good quality factor 50 sun cream on my head at all times? I'm keen to hear from other people's experience with sun exposure after surgery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Berba11 Posted March 25 Valued Contributor Share Posted March 25 Wear a hat as much as possible and cream up whenever it's not. Your grafts will be fine, but your scalp is still healing and will be vulnerable to sun exposure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Walker Paper Posted March 25 Regular Member Share Posted March 25 Don't overdo it and don't get a sunburn and you will be fine... wear a hat during the hottest part of the day. I personally would not put a sunscreen cream on my head, the chemicals in it just may be too harsh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
