Beard Hair Transplant
Beard Hair Transplant
Facial hair transplant is a procedure which restores hair to areas where facial hair growth is thin or missing which can be done by both Choi or FUE depends on H2Clinica doctors’ recommendations and the patient case. While this procedure is most commonly performed on the goatee and mustache areas, it can also be performed on beards, sideburns and cheeks. Facial hair transplants can also be used to conceal acne scars and other types of scars.
Loss of facial hair may occur for many reasons. It can be the result of genetics, laser hair removal, electrolysis, surgery, burns or injury. Goals for this procedure can vary from a minor filling in or thin coverage of a limited area, to the full restoration of a thick, full goatee or beard. The procedure can be performed on areas where there is no hair or on areas where hair growth is thin and more fullness is desired.
The number of grafts required is unlimited and depending of each patient and most of all depends on the donor area from the back side. While not very common, some patients may require a second procedure to transplant additional grafts if they desire a very thick density.
Just as with a hair transplant to the head, the donor hairs for a facial hair transplant come from the back or sides of the scalp. Which site is used typically depends on which offers the closest match to the facial hair; sometimes it’s the back of the scalp while other times it’s the side of the scalp. Once transplanted, the hairs are permanent and typically grow just like facial hair with similar texture and other characteristics. Furthermore, the transplanted hair can be shaved just as you would other facial hair.
