At two weeks you can do anything you want, full exercise, run  a marathon or do a full workout at the gym

If you already drank beer and danced, it would be a moot point to ask when you can dance.

There are restrictions after FUE in the first 7-10 days, but nothing after that.

At 13 days you can pretty much dance all night and it shouldn't have any negative affect on your transplanted grafts. 10 days is usually the magic day where everything seems to settle and you can resume your regular activities.

2 weeks post FUE

2 weeks post FUE you really have no restrictions.  The only time to be concerned is if you still have crusting where the grafts where placed as crusting and sweat can lead to bacteria.  However, at 2 weeks, just about every patient is able to do full workouts, play sports, etc.  Hope you enjoyed your night out!
