Senior Member sl Posted July 24, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted July 24, 2020 For us after FUE, then the patient is usually back in the gym at 14 days and they break back into it so probably less heavy or intense than the usual routine but they are in the swing of things soon after. Cardio not a problem at 14 days. Just be careful with weights not to bang your head on any iron and especially with things like laying down pull-overs etc where the weight is passing back and forth over the scalp... 1 I represent Dr. Bisanga.

Senior Member 1978matt Posted July 24, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted July 24, 2020 I did after 14 days but only went about 50% on 1 rep maxes. Go for reps instead of lifiting heavy for the first 2 weeks. 4,312 FUT grafts (7,676 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2013 1,145 FUE grafts (3,152 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2018 763 FUE grafts (2,094 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - January 2020 Proscar 1.25mg every 3rd day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Gabreille Nelson Mukhia Posted July 25, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted July 25, 2020 You can resume heavy weight lifting after the 7th day itself. We have many patients who are into body building and they have had resumed their weights after the headwash on the 8th day.

Senior Member Rolandas Posted July 25, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted July 25, 2020 I had instructions as follows: 14 days - light exercise 30 days - can resume any contact sport, swimming and heavy lifting I think majority of it is just a precaution, but I would advise not to rush. You just had a surgery, you paid a lot of money, you used your donor that is worth more than money can buy. I'm sure in a long run after 10 years it won't matter if you would go back to the gym 2 weeks earlier or later. 1 1st FUE - 28/01/2020 - 3659 grafts - Dr. Bruno Ferreira 2nd FUE - 03/06/2021 - 2881 grafts - Dr. Bruno Ferreira Follow me on YouTube I'm not a medical professional, thus any information given by me is my own observation and should not be treated as professional advice.
