Safe healing time after implant for contact sports?

Support

Hi all!
I just got a xEM and xNT last December, going to implant them very soon. I would just like to know, how long are the healing times normally? The main issue is that I practice contact sport, Muay Thai to be precise.
It is unlikely that I will be hit on the implant spots (usual place, top of the hands between index and thumb), but it might happen, and I’m still bound to be hit on the forearms, or throw punches obviously.
So my question is, for how long should I refrain from such sport after the implant operation?

Thank you in advance!

It takes about 2 - 4 weeks to fully encapsulate the tags. During this time it will be important to try to avoid activities that could displace or move the implants under the skin.
