Can facial exercises cause any harm after FUE?

Question

Hi i had FUE HT 68 days ago and two days ago I did scalp exersices for 2 hours (raising my eyebrows and lowering them). I stopped doing them because I was not sure if it safe to do it at this stage. Did it cause any harm?

It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen.  There should be no reason why you can't do face exercises.

Performing facial exercises as you describe should not cause any harm to the transplanted follicles. Feel free to exercise away!

Raising eyebrows after an FUE will not cause any problem with the growth of the new grafts. This is a harmless exercise
