Exercise after a hair transplant
Exercise after a hair transplant. Hair transplant surgery is an effective surgery, mainly used to treat male pattern baldness, thinning hair, and various other forms of hair loss. Studies have shown that approximately 70% of men will be bald by the age of 80. Therefore, this low-risk surgery is very popular.
Hair transplant surgery is simple and the recovery time is short. However, since it is a medical procedure, you must follow certain rules to exercise after a hair transplant.
If exercise is part of your daily life, how long will you have to wait after surgery to resume exercising?
SHOULD I EXERCISE AFTER A HAIR TRANSPLANT?
Although hair transplantation is very popular, it is still a medical procedure that takes time to heal. Sometimes exercise can be detrimental to the healing process. It is best to avoid any form of exercise immediately after hair transplantation to stay safe.
Vigorous exercise increases the possibility of injury or graft displacement. For the FUE method, a rest period of approximately 7-10 days is essential. Scars and sores usually take about a week to heal, while grafts take about two weeks to heal. For these two hair transplant methods, the first 5 days should be easy.
Before this, physical exercise after hair transplantation, such as lifting weights or strenuous exercise, can cause the graft to fall out. To prevent this from happening, it is best to avoid exercise altogether. If necessary, you can participate in light activities such as yoga.
