How is Beard Transplant Performed?
The medical protocol is identical to hair transplantation. A certain amount of follicles are extracted from your donor area which is between your ears and are implanted in the pre-designed beard or mustache area. The FUE method is performed by extraction and implantation of follicles one by one. The hair in the back of the head is like a bar that delivers a natural success.
The incision part of the procedure is very important. Incisions are made at an angle and direction that mimics the original beard so that the patient can have a natural-looking beard.
Your actual condition depends on the number of grafts. If you have a patchy bar, which has to be denser, about 1000-1500 grafts can be sufficient, and you need around 4000-5000 grafts to supply a full beard.

How is the Process After a Beard Transplant?
It is almost the same as a hair transplant. A few key steps have to be taken. You should avoid facial movements for three days and try to eat watery or soft food to keep newly implanted grafts protected. Sleeping on your back is also important, so the grafts are not dislocated.
Another important thing is your special 10-day beard washing scheme, which our health team explains with all its details.
The implanted beard should not be cut off or trimmed during the healing process because damages may occur. This process normally takes 3-6 months, but do not hesitate to contact your doctor if you want to cut or shave your beard. You can easily achieve a successful result if you follow the important steps in aftercare.
