Time Off Work After Surgery


Recommended Posts

I'm still trying to figure out how much time is right for those who work in an office/can't wear hats. But I can tell you that returning to work 4 days post-op was WAY too soon after my strip procedure. I kept a little diary of my experience at the time and wrote "next time take 14 days off." I don't know if that's enough, but 4 days definitely was not.

It really varies from person to person. I work from home full time. But, when I had my first hair transplant, I was still required to attend live meetings occasionally. The first meeting came up about 5 weeks post-op and the telltale pinkish hue was still in full effect. I ended up calling in sick that day.
