Beard Transplantation

It is the process of transplanting the roots taken from the areas where the beard is denser and denser to the sparser areas of the beard. This procedure can be applied to the chin, lateral sides, sideburns, and mustache area.

There is no specific standard for the density or sparseness of the beard. Beard transplantation is a method used by men who are uncomfortable with the sparseness of their beard, depending on the person’s preference. In beard transplantation, strong hair follicles taken from the cheekbones or the nape of the head are placed in the area where the beard is sparse. Beard transplantation can also be performed for regional losses that occur due to various reasons such as burns, injuries, etc.

The redness that occurs in the areas where the needle was inserted during transplantation disappears in 2-3 weeks. You can return to daily life a few days after the beard transplantation procedure performed under local anesthesia. After the 2nd week, the transplanted beards begin to shed temporarily. Those who have had a beard transplant can shorten their beard with scissors after 15 days and shave after about a month. After 4-8 months, all the lost beard grows back. The increase in the roots of the beards transplanted for up to 2 years continues. It is important to follow the doctor’s recommendations to avoid any residue on the face after the operation and to avoid infection.
