dry skin post op?

Holy man I have noticed my skin is drying out like crazy, 3 weeks post op..
anyone else drying up ?

 I totally had dry skin post op.  Mostly my face and hands.  It lasted a couple of months if I recall correctly.  This too shall pass.  Gail

it is likely related to your lack of fluid intake. Remember, not only is it difficult to ge****er in, the water you'd normally get in through food is decreased. Drink up...

Yes!  Been there done that.
BioOil was my skin's best friend.  Soaked it up so fast.
Palmer's Cocoa Butter lotion or oil too.

If you're ever in a city that has Lush cosmetics, they have a Buffy bar that is awesome.
Being a Sudbury native myself, I know that there isn't a location close to you ;)

Yep, me too.  My scalp has completely dried out, which is a bit more challenging than dry skin elsewhere.  I'm 6 months out and it hasn't improved.  BTW, I get 2-3 litres of liquids daily and am still dry.  I consider it a bit of a pain but a small price to pay for the 75+ lbs I've lost so far!

Any solutions to the scalp issues?  I'm fighting that right now, in a huge way.

I am having the dry scalp issue too.. the change in weather is driving my head crazy!!! My hair is totally dried out too

Moroccan Oil for your hair, it will be your best friend. http://moroccanoil.com/
It is sold in salons, Trade Secrets, Sally Beauty Supply and Enviro trends.
There is one for lighter coloured hair, it's not quite as hydrating though.
A little goes a long way.

I'm not post. But will my skin dry enough to scrape off my age brown spots on my face? lol I have had them since my 20's. Not really too worried about them, I have used the expensive creams in the passed but it never lasts.
Just thought I would be funny. lol

mebbe, Brenda!! That would be awesome. Or if they'll become less prominent when you lose weight because they'll migrate to places people can't see...
