What is a Beard Transplant?

A beard transplant is a delicate process that should only be performed by a highly qualified and experienced hair transplant surgeon. It can be performed to restore or fill in a sparse beard, mustache, sideburns, or eyebrows. In any facial hair transplant procedure, performing natural-looking follicle grafts with minimal scarring is extremely important. Our surgeons perform most beard transplants using a technique called follicular unit transfer (FUT). Transplanted hairs come from your scalp, mainly the back of the head, which is where hair is the thickest and most similar to a beard. Using your hair from the back of your head helps the aesthetic surgeon use the best source for the transplant and avoids color, consistency, and texture issues. The procedure can be performed by one of our surgeons using local anesthetic and requires approximately two weeks of recovery before you can resume all normal activities. Results are permanent.

What are the benefits of Beard Transplant?

Beards convey a sense of masculinity and allow you to express your unique style, not to mention the freedom they offer from the daily chore of shaving. With a beard transplant Washington D.C. patients can expect results that look and feel incredibly natural, allowing them to cultivate the facial hair they desire using follicles borrowed from other parts of their body. The procedure is part of an exciting and rapidly advancing field in cosmetic surgery. In one minimally invasive procedure, you can achieve long-lasting results that let you confidently take control of your appearance.

Your Beard Transplant Procedure

Your surgeon will work with you to determine the best surgical method for your beard transplant procedure. In the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) approach, donor follicles are removed individually from the donor site, typically the back of the scalp. Conversely, in Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT), the donor follicles are removed all at once in a strip and then separated for the transplant. Once healthy follicles have been collected, your doctor makes small incisions in the beard area that determine your beard's direction and growth pattern. Once complete, we place the grafts, and your surgery is complete. Only local anesthesia is required.

Beard Transplant Results

You will observe that after your beard transplant, the transplanted hairs begin to shed 15 to 30 days post-surgery. This is a huge first step, as new beard follicles are about to begin their growth phase. Most of the hair follicles will have settled into place within about 90 days, and your beard will become more visible around the four-month mark. You will be able to enjoy your full results and grow a thick beard about nine months after your procedure.

Beard Transplant Recovery and Aftercare

We prioritize your well-being and offer comprehensive aftercare instructions. Even after you return home, we provide virtual post-procedure support to ensure a successful recovery. For the first few weeks after your beard transplant, you'll need to avoid certain activities such as swimming, bathing, and exercising. We'll provide a specially formulated pH-balanced shampoo to use for three weeks and instruct you on how to properly wash your beard and care for the treated area. As the follicles grow in, the results of your beard transplant will continue to improve. You can expect to see your final results within nine to fourteen months, which will be worth the wait!
