Hair transplant/wearing beanie/sweat a lot/gym/38 days post op.

Arihant JainApr 16, 2016
I am 38 days post op after my hair transplant. I am a regular and heavy gym goer. I haven't been going to gym since all this time and now I think it's ok for me to hit the gym again. My doctor asked me to resume my gym after 3 weeks but I avoided it for more than a month. Can I wear a beanie and workout? Can't say it's tight but it's not lose either. I sweat a lot. I hope it will not hamper the transplanted hair. Please help. Thank you so much in advance.

The size of your bald area determines the cost as most doctors charge per graft costs. See below for an example in the web reference below. This patient's hair transplant fee was $5000

You are 36 days post op you can wear anything type of head covering (hats, bandanna, beanies)  you would like and cause no harm to your transplanted hair. YOur exercise activites can resume to normal as well.

I wrote to you yesterday privately about this. If you used it after 5 days when the wounds were sealed, the peroxide should have no impact on the hairs in the graft.
