At PRP-London Hair Transplant Clinics, we understand the pressure men face to always look their best. A healthy beard is often seen as a sign of good health and attractiveness, prompting many men to seek beard transplants.
A beard transplant, or facial hair transplant, involves transplanting healthy hair follicles from the patient's donor area (usually the back of the scalp) to the areas of hair loss in the beard. Our certified hair transplant surgeons perform all our procedures. Hair loss or sparse facial hair is a common issue among men of all ages.
If you're worried about facial hair loss, here's some information to help you regain your confidence.
What is a Beard Transplant?
A beard transplant is a facial hair restoration procedure that involves transplanting your own hair from other areas of your body, typically the back of your scalp, to the affected areas. This clinically proven method treats hair loss in the beard and moustache areas of your face.
How Does a Beard Transplant Work?
After scheduling your free consultation with one of our hair transplant surgeons, you'll discuss the beard transplant procedure that will maximize your results and fit into your busy schedule.
On the day of your procedure, local anaesthetic is used during the FUE process to ensure you feel no discomfort and can fully relax. First, the new beard design is created, followed by the extraction of hair from your donor area. The donor area is typically the back and sides of the head, where follicles are not affected by the hair loss hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT). These follicles are then implanted into the beard area.
Within a few months, your new beard hair will start to grow, giving you a fuller and more natural-looking beard. The transplant will also promote continuous beard growth, providing a long-term solution.
Results and Beard Transplant Aftercare
The results of FUE surgery are highly desirable. Compared to other treatments, no procedure or remedy matches its effectiveness. FUE ensures noticeable results almost immediately, and you'll be able to grow a fuller beard for years to come.
Typically, scarring from FUE surgery heals within 6-7 days. Unlike FUT surgery, FUE doesn't require stitches, so patients don’t experience scalp tightness or major pain post-surgery.
If you experience any issues after your surgery, our clinic offers industry-leading aftercare. Don't hesitate to contact us at:
