Resuming Weight Training After a Hair Transplant

When a person goes through a hair transplant surgery, there are a number of postoperative cautions that need to be taken. Along with rest and taking certain medications to counter the chances of an infection, some of the routine that the person maintains needs to be stopped as well for a few days. Weight training finds itself on the list of things to avoid immediately after a transplant procedure. It can be resumed later on but if started right after the surgery, it can cause damage to the work done. Following factors play an important role in determining when you should resume the weight training.

Depending on the nature of the procedure, the time needed to restart weight training will differ. In case of strip method which is highly invasive, more time is needed to restart weight training. On the other hand, if you go through a Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), you will need lesser time to recover and will be able to start weight training earlier.  [/su_box]

However, it is important that you start of slowly so that the recent injuries are not affected by it. Starting off with lighter weights initially is an ideal option.  [/su_box]
