Cosmetic Surgery and Sun Exposure in Denver
Exposing your surgical areas to the sun can cause damage. Following plastic surgery or cosmetic surgery, it is important not to expose your body to the sun after surgery. The surface area in which has been treated becomes much more susceptible to a sunburn then it normally is. We advise patients to stay out of the sun for at least 6 weeks following liposelection, breast augmentation, tummy tucks, and other various procedures. After this time frame, it is still important to cover any incision sites (scars) with sunscreen and preferably band aids and/or clothing, for at least a year. This helps prevent any hyper-pigmentation of the scar/s, helping it fade to white.

My girlfriend called me the other day asking whether our Plastic Surgery office offers Botox injections. A young looking 43, she feels she’s not a candidate for any facial Plastic Surgery procedure. But months of job seeking and interviewing after her husband and she reached the decision their household needed a second income, she has not been able to find steady employment. With years of experience on her resume as an account executive, she’s worried that she may be facing age discrimination in the hiring process. She wonders if the fine lines around her eyes and forehead may be more noticeable to the HR department than to herself. I told her about our special pricing on “Botox Fridays” and suggested she schedule an appointment. For a nominal amount of time and money, about a half-dozen small injections may help level the playing field for her.
