Is heat/sweat dangerous after transplantation?

[TFM]

Considering going to Turkey soon and it's pretty hot there during the summer months... Will probably start sweating like a pig heading back to the hotel after surgery....

If I ask a surgeon (that's mostly just after my money anyway!) they will probably say it's fine. What do you think? Is this a "risk" factor other than infection?

it's fine. Wear a hat.
As for the sun, you will have to become a hat prisoner for the next 4 months before you can go under the sun without any problems. If you have to go outside, make it breif, and appply sun screen.

Doctors recommend no direct sun light for prolonged times until there is no redness & pinkness left.


Sweating will have zero impact. However, during the first week when the recipient area is fresh and you're on antibiotics I avoid strenuous activity. Once that's over within 7-10 days, it's completely fine to resume activities such as the gym if you had FUE.

I usually work out 7 days after my procedure with no issues at all.
