In the days following your hair transplant procedure, it’s important to rest and avoid strenuous activities that could impact the healing of your scalp and newly transplanted hair follicles. However, this recovery period doesn’t mean you have to be bored or unproductive. Take advantage of this downtime to catch up on reading that book you’ve been meaning to dive into, or binge-watch a new TV series you haven’t had time for. Gentle activities like sketching, knitting, or solving puzzles can keep your mind engaged without physical exertion. You could also use this time to learn a new skill like meditation, which promotes relaxation and healing. Light stretching and short walks are okay after the first few days, but listen to your body and your doctor’s advice. Most of all, practice patience and self-care as your body recovers and your newly transplanted hair begins its growth journey.
