This is a repetitive question. But if one is to exercise post fue - say after 2 weeks - I know one has to use sun block since I will be in the sun but wearing a hat. But I was just curious if this is okay in the graft  area to put sunblock on.

And if a specific sun  block is best.

This subject is typically covered during a consultation.  You want to avoid sun for a period of about 3 months post op.  Reason being, if you burn each of the incisions, you can freckle permanently.  So, 7-10 post op, you can apply it - and wear a cap - which you should be doing anyway when in the sun.
