Answer: A short period of sun exposure is alright As long as you do not stay under the sun for 10-20 minutes a day, you would be fine. Longer periods may cause discoloration and we strongly recommend our patients to stay away from direct sunlight and sunbathing for a month.

Answer: Careful of Strong, Long Sun Exposure There is a degree of common sense here as you should never have too long in strong sunlight for your skin. General walking out into the sun is not going to be a problem. But avoid prolonged time in strong sunlight. Wear a hat or cover your scalp especially in the fist few weeks post hair transplant. But also in the coming months take care not to burn or impair your skin quality over the grafted area.
