Jae Pak, MD · Answer

If you believe riding a bike and sweating under your helmet is the cause of hair loss, then logic dictates that hair transplant surgery will not help if you plan on continuing to ride a bike and sweat under your helmet.Before having a hair transplant surgery you should obtain a DIAGNOSIS of WHY you are losing hair.

Ryan Welter, MD · Answer

Because FUE grafts take "root" after just a short time after transplant, they are not likely to be harmed by exercise after a transplant, but you should allow 2 weeks before doing heavy exercise.It is actually possible that increased blood supply during aerobic exercise helps your grafts!Good Luck, Dr. Welter

Once you have healed fully, you can begin your normal routine.  I recommend to wait wearing a helmet until four weeks after transplant to make sure you have completely healed. Sweating should not effect it after four weeks either.,

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

After an FUE, you should wait at least 2 weeks before wearing a helmet providing that your doctor approved of it at that point in time, it does not rub on the recipient area and the recipient area has not scabs (crusts) on it.
