How long after FUE until I can go SCUBA diving?

Kilam1964
Thank you all the doctors for excellent advice, tips and comments. I have a simple 'question': I have read that one must not scuba dive after an FUE, even 5 weeks post-procedure. Why is that and how long should I wait before jumping into the deep? I neglected to ask my surgeon and still waiting for an email reply...
