Dry/Flaky Skin

i noticed I had a little dry skin from my nipple downwards so used small amounts of cocoa butter on them and then today when I had a shower my under side just started flaking like crazy. Only way to describe it is if you pummice your feet when they’re wet, the skin is coming off like that.

Has anyone else had this? What did you do about it?

hey hun, ye i had and still having flaking, i think its down to the solution that they put on you while in surgery it dries the skin out quite bad, i had lots of skin peeling around my incisions so that might explain it xxx

I’m 5 weeks post op when does it stop? Lol it’s like the more I try to remove it the more is coming off!

I’m the same, I’ve been putting cream on my boobs like 3 times a day and it still isn’t moisturising. It’s so itchy and flakey. Hopefully it’ll go away soon – I’m nearly 4 weeks po.. Xx

I’ve got this too – I’m not putting anything on it as when I did when I first noticed it made it worse. Now after not putting anything on ots so much better, still a little flaky but nothing compared to at first x

I think you’re right Kasey! I put cocoa butter on them last night maybe that’s what’s made it worse. X

Hi everyone..

My PS told me that I might get dry/flaky skin at some point, which I did, she said to completely leave it alone and it will go, just over 2 weeks and have had it for over a week and has now gone. Hope this helps..

Thanks Clare! I have now left it alone and I think it’s going now 🙂 x
