Hello,
Be careful, do not get too close to the fire. İf you feel like the transplanted area is sweating,  cool down a bit and continue the activity after.

Best to avoid fire or heat after a hair transplant as the grafts are sensitive to heat and external stimulation

Hello, yes at this point in your recovery the grafts are secure and you can go near fire as long as you are careful.

At 13 days if all of the scabs and crusts are off, you are normal and the grafts are secure so you can do whatever you want
