Hi, I had 1000 grafts transplanted in the hairline 5 days ago, is it possible to go outside if the temperature is below the zero? (minus 5 Celsius). I read somewhere that it's better to avoid too warm or too cold temperatures after a hair transplant. If it's true that it's better to avoid cold temperatures, for how long then? What if I wear a hat? Thanks.
