    Default Question that has been making me go insane!

    just had a question that has been bothering me for the best part of a month now regarding this topic.
    I had an FUE of 4000 grafts done around 6 weeks ago, and at day 6 or 7, I exposed my head to some direct sunlight intermittently for around an hour or so,maybe more. afterwards I never had any pain, redness, bleeding or anything that suggested a sunburn. In fact, I remembered this a few days later.
    My head looks perfectly ok and everything too.
    My question is, is it possible that I have damaged the grafts in some way that might not be visible ?
    And is the reason people say stay away from the sun mainly related to getting a sunburn, which if avoided, means you have not in fact damaged the grafts?

    Yes.

    If you didn't get a sunburn and it was brief exposure like you say, it probably isn't something to worry about. By day 6 or 7 the grafts have either survived, or not. (I'm not saying it's impossible to damage grafts after a week, but it doesn't sound like that's what happened). Relax, hopefully you are fine.
