Beard & Moustache Transplantation
Hair loss in the beard and mustache can be inherited or caused by burns or injuries. Beard and mustache transplantation operations can be performed to address this issue. With our many years of experience, we at Inter Clinic perform beard and mustache transplantation operations. The hair loss in beard and mustaches, which is common in men, can be treated with a minor operation.
How the beard transplantation is performed?
Beard transplantation, like hair transplantation, can be performed using the FUE method. Prior to the hair transplantation, the patient should be evaluated to see if they are suitable for the procedure. It is a method of transplanting hair follicles grafted from the person’s hairy skin, i.e. from the appropriate donor area to the problematic area. The chin area has around 650-750 follicles, the sideburns have 250-300, and cheeks have 350-700. The procedure takes between 2 to 6 hours, depending on the number of follicles to be transplanted, and the person returns home the same day. As local anesthesia is performed during the procedure, the person does not feel any discomfort.
What about after the transplantation?
The hairs start growing 2 to 3 days after the transplantation; redness may be seen around the hair follicles at this stage, but it is a natural process. The first wash is 48 hours after the transplant. First shedding occurs 2 to 3 weeks after the beard transplantation, but it is a natural process, and the transplanted follicles are going to grow back after 5 to 8 months.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can people with scars on their faces get hair transplants?
Beard transplantation can also be performed on men who have facial scars from burns, on acne scars, or surgical incision scars. Bread transplantation is a great way for these people to achieve great results.
How long after the transplantation can the beard be trimmed?
Although the best time is up to 1 month after transplantation, the beard can be trimmed very carefully 15 days after the procedure. It should be noted that this varies from person to person.
When can I see results?
Generally, a significant growth can be seen two months after the transplantation procedure. If you want to grow your beard longer, this process can take up to 4 to 6 months. A long-lasting beard is obtained after 10 months.
Are the results of beard transplantation permanent?
The result of beard transplantation is permanent. Because beards are true to their nature, new hairs will grow and continue to grow for many years.
Can other people detect the beard transplantation operation?
No, the process is carried out in accordance with a natural appearance principle and is undetectable from the outside.
Will there be any scarring after the beard transplant?
There will be no scarring thanks to the FUE technique performed during the beard transplantation. The most significant advantage of the FUE technique, which increases patient satisfaction, is that areas with scars can be transplanted, bleeding is kept to a minimum, and recovery time is short.
