Intro To Beard Transplant

If you feel unhappy about the low density and patchiness of your beard, you’re certainly not alone! According to recent studies, between 45-50% of men report that they are disappointed with the appearance of their beard. Yet, the solution remains very simple and easy to get. Let’s introduce you to beard transplants. A Beard transplant or implant is a surgical procedure to take hair from one part of your body and transplant it into the beard, jawline, sideburns, mustache, or goatee. This treatment can restore facial hair growth and bring natural, permanent results. Surgeons can choose one of two approaches to perform the transplantation: Follicular unit extraction (FUE) or follicular unit transplantation (FUT). Your surgeon will pick the approach that suits you best.

Recovery After Beard Transplant

You can start shaving or trimming your hair normally after 7-10 days.
Try to avoid direct sunlight, Intense activity, smoking, and swimming for a few days after the surgery.
Try to avoid rubbing and scratching the newly transplanted hair follicles.
Your newly transplanted hair follicles will start growing normally within 3-4 months.
