That picture is 16 days post op from having 2000 grafts densely packed into my receding hairline. I work from home so I was in no rush to rub off the scabs and thought I'd simply leave them to fall off on their on accord as opposed to rubbing the recipient area to speed up the process. Is there anything wrong with having down that? Note that all the scabs in the picture are raised above my scalp having being lifted by the newly implanted hairs.

Thanks for the question. After 2 month your scalp is totally healed and yes you can play volleyball and also do other sport activities. I wish you all the best.
FUE scars are left in the donor where the hair is taken, not in the recipient area, where the hair is placed. The tools used to make the recipient sites are very tiny. There should be no evidence or scars where you get your new hair.
As long as you avoid excessive sunlight for the first few months, and excessive sweating for the first few days, the heat shouldn't pose an issue for your scalp to heal correctly.
