Beard Transplant procedure

Beard Transplant

Beard Hair Transplant is a safe medical procedure performed to grow a fuller moustache or beard. Beard and moustache hold a very significant factor in men’s style apart from the fact that some communities consider the presence of beard and moustache as menhood sign.

There are many reasons for lack of beard with men, most of them are genetic reasons, also the following may be responsible for beard baldness:

  • Laser Depilation,
  • Surgical Interventions,
  • Burns, Accidents,
  • Immune Disorders,
  • Low Levels Of Testosterone.

Beard Hair Transplant is very similar to the regular hair transplantion for baldness. By FUE or DHI method Beard and Moustache hair grafts are extracted from the “Donor Area”.  The procedure is carried out under local anthesia to create a completely natural, growing and permanent facial hair.

The new facial hairs will grow permanently for the rest life and can be shaved, trimmed and styled anyway that you like.


How it’s done ?

Here is an overview of the process steps:

Harvest

Whether FUE (DHI OR SAPPHIRE) is chosen, the first step for
the surgeon is to shave the area of the head to be harvested.

This will allow you to see the hair follicles more clearly.
Local anesthesia is applied before the harvest begins, so you will not feel the
harvest or implantation.

Transplant

Once the follicle has been removed from the head, the
surgeon will inject a local anesthetic into the area of the face where the
implant will be placed. A surgeon then grafts each hair follicle into the skin
of your face to shape a new beard as agreed by you and your doctor before
surgery.

Recovery

It takes 1 day to recover from beard implant surgery. Small
crusts may form around the newly transplanted hair follicles, but these should
fall off within a few days.

After about a week to 10 days, your beard shall return to
normal situation

But note: New beard hairs may fall out after a few weeks.
This is normal and the new hair should grow back into place.


Who are the good candidates for this procedure?

Hair follicles are harvested from the back of the head, so
it is important to have healthy hair follicles in this area.

This spot is usually one of the last areas to go bald. Even
if the hair on the top of your head starts to fall out, the back of your head
is probably growing healthy.

The transplant surgeon will examine your scalp to determine
if there are enough follicular units for transplantation. If it seems that you
don’t have enough hair follicles to harvest, your doctor may recommend another
treatment.
