Beard transplant is a surgical procedure where healthy hair follicles are taken from one part of the body (usually the scalp) and transplanted to the beard area. The purpose of the procedure is to create a fuller and more defined beard or fill in patchy areas. Beard transplant is typically done under local anesthesia and takes an average of a few hours to complete. The transplanted hairs will continue to grow and can be shaped and maintained just like naturally growing beard hairs.
The following steps are followed in beard transplant, which involves transplanting hairs follicles taken from certain parts of the body, usually the scalp, to the beard area:
Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is applied to the donor and recipient areas to minimize pain and discomfort.
Harvesting donor hair: A strip of skin containing hairs is removed from the scalp using a scalpel or a special punch tool. The strip is then divided into individual grafts.
Incision in the recipient area: Small incisions are made in the beard area where the hair follicles will be transplanted.
Transplantation of hair follicles: Hair follicles are carefully placed one by one into the incisions made in the beard area.
Closure of incisions: The incisions are closed with stitches or staples.
Post-operative care: To prevent infection, the transplant area should be kept clean and bacteria growth should be avoided. After the procedure, there may be pain, swelling, and redness, but it usually subsides within a few days. The results of beard transplant generally become visible a few months after the procedure.

Things to do before beard transplant:
You should have a detailed consultation with our hair transplant specialists to evaluate hair loss and determine if hair transplant is the right solution for you. It is very important to choose an experienced and well-equipped clinic and doctor for the success of the transplant. You should be aware of potential risks and complications associated with hair transplant, such as infection, scarring, and poor growth.
It is important to pay attention to the following after the beard transplant:
Post-care instructions: To ensure a quick recovery and avoid infection, it is important to follow the instructions provided by the doctor.
Pain management: Pain is normal after the procedure. It can be managed with pain medications.
Swelling and bruising: Swelling and bruising are common after the procedure and usually subside within a week or two.
Avoid direct sunlight: Direct sunlight can harm the newly transplanted hair follicles, so it is important to protect the area with a hat or scarf.
Avoid certain activities: Activities that put pressure on the transplanted area, such as heavy exercise, should be avoided for a few days.
Avoid certain products: Hair products such as hair dyes, styling gels, and sprays should be avoided for a few weeks.
It should be kept in mind that it may take a few months for the transplanted hair to grow out, and there is no need to rush to see the results of a beard transplant. It is important to pay attention to the pre and post-care instructions mentioned above.
The prices of beard transplants can vary depending on various factors such as the number of required grafts, the pricing policy of the clinic, and the experience of the surgeon. You can contact us for more detailed information about the beard transplant procedure and prices.
Beard transplant is a permanent operation, and although there may be some short-term shedding, permanent beards usually grow after an average of 6 months.
There is no danger or harm in beard transplant for individuals without any health problems that would prevent the operation, and who follow the instructions after the procedure.
Beard transplant is planned individually and performed in a single session.
