Regular Member Mac1 Posted May 16, 2012 Regular Member Posted May 16, 2012 Hey guys, I had my donor scar excised and revised by a reputable surgeon. He used staples to close the wound and will remove them on the 10th day. I asked him about working out post-op and he said he is not to strict on it as long as I wait about two weeks after surgery, and just to refrain from heavy lifting. I just wanted to get some thoughts from you guys if you have any recommendations or suggestions. I love working out and its very important to me.
Senior Member NEWHAIRPLEASE Posted May 16, 2012 Senior Member Posted May 16, 2012 If I had a revision, I would wait at least 2 months before doing anything just to be on the safe side.

Did it make scar less wide? I've got 1 that 5 to 8mm. Considering revision.
Senior Member HARIRI Posted August 1, 2013 Senior Member Posted August 1, 2013 Its very risky, thats why I cancelled it and stick to FUE into scar. You either get a slight improvenment but in the other hand it may stay unchanged or get WORSE! Fingers crossed.
