Why can't I bend my head after hair transplant? My surgeon told me it's better not to.

Asked By:asu1077 in Tempe, AZ

I have done FUE hair transplant, which it took 3 days (each day 6 hours average). On the day 1 & 3 of the operation, I was slowly bending my body & head down for a few second multiple times "for praying". Then, I have been told by surgeon is better to not bend over. After that, I was only bending my body while keeping my raised up for any activity. Now I'm worry about the reception area, and how much bending can effect the outcome of HT?
