FUE Beard Hair Transplant

WHAT IS BEARD TRANSPLANT?

Facial hair transplants such as beard transplants are one of the most-sought aesthetic treatments by men in recent years to create a more “masculine” look, but the demand for it can also be due to other reasons. Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) in beard implants is a hair transplantation procedure that involves harvesting healthy hair follicles from a donor area and transplanting them to the recipient area where the beard hair is thin or hairless. Like the FUE hair transplant procedure, harvesting, extractions and implanting of the grafted hair to face is applied to the procedure of beard hair transplant.

HOW DOES FUE BEARD HAIR TRANSPLANT WORK?

During the first visit, the hair transplant specialist will discuss two main things with you - First, the desired design of the recipient area and secondly, the number of grafts that can harvested from the donor area. While the procedure can be time-consuming, it is often completed in a single session. Your doctor will consult with you and discuss potential outcomes before proceeding with the process in a separate session.

To start the procedure, the doctor will outline the area where the beard implants will take place. Then he will shave the donor area on your head to make the area clear for him to operate from within. After that the hair strands are plucked out one by one and inserted into the cheeks, chin or neck to cover the hairless areas of the face or to fill up uneven beard hair growth.

4 perfectly coordinated steps are carried out by a specialised hair transplant team, they comprise of:

Hair follicle extraction from the donor area
Hair grafts preparation for transplantation
Punch holes made on beard area
Hair follicle transplantation to recipient area

WHAT PROBLEMS DOES THE FUE BEARD TRANSPLANT

While some men were born with no hair growth on this facial region or rather sparce hair growth, others faced the inability to grow facial hair which can be caused by different factors such as trauma, surgery, or other factors. FUE method as an effective facial hair grower helps solve the problems of:

Men with significantly less or no beard.
Individuals who want to increase the density of existing beard hairs.
Loss of beard hair due to injury or burns.
Chronic alopecia areata, which is not responding to any medical treatments.
Covering after- cleft lip repair, scarring or skin imperfections.

PRECAUTIONS OF DOING FUE BEARD TRANSPLANT

The success of an FUE beard transplant depends not only on the choice of a good hair transplant specialist and a reputable hair restoration clinic; it also depends on good beard treatment. In this sense, you need to know what care must be followed after the procedure, such as keeping the face and site on the scalp as clean as possible to avoid infection and other possible side effects.

Also, wait 48 hours before washing your beard. You can take a body shower but keep your hair and beard dry. From day 3 after the transplant, you can start washing your hair and beard. Washing the beard will not harm newly implanted follicles but be careful. If you scrub too much, you can dislodge a graft.

EXPECTED DOWNTIME FOR FUE BEARD TRANSPLANT

As the beard transplant is an outpatient procedure, you can go home the same day. The recovery period lasts about 1-2 week. Approximately two to three weeks after the beard transplant surgery, all of the donor’s hair will fall out. This is natural and temporary. The same sudden hair loss occurs with FUE hair transplant. About four months after the beard transplant, the transplanted follicles will begin to grow again. The growth will look natural and provide you with a thick, full and well-designed beard.

BEFORE & AFTER FUE BEARD TRANSPLANT

Who is a good candidate for FUE beard transplant?

Good candidates for FUE beard transplant include men who have patchy or thin beards and those who have scarring in the beard area. It is also important that the candidate has enough hair on the scalp to be used for the transplant.

Is the procedure painful?

The procedure is usually not painful as it is performed under local anesthesia. However, some patients may experience mild discomfort during the procedure due to the long hours of procedure.

What is the recovery period like?

The recovery period for FUE beard transplant is relatively quick. Most patients can resume their daily activities within a few days after the procedure. The transplanted hairs will fall out within the first few weeks, but new hair growth will start within a few months.

How long do the results of FUE beard transplant last?

The results of FUE beard transplant are usually permanent, as the transplanted hair follicles are resistant to balding.
