Beard Transplant Before and After*

The before and after images show the impressive results possible with a beard transplant. While this is a cosmetic surgery, results may vary by person.* However, after the transplant procedure is complete, each client achieves noticeable improvements to their appearance, such as thicker, fuller, more even facial hair.

45-year-old male wanted more definition added to his beard, particularly around the cheeks. We used 2,000 scalp follicles to improve the fullness and definition of the beard. We also created a better transition between the mustache and beard. We purposely created some imperfections in the beard line to make it appear natural. The patient prefers to keep his beard natural, but he can shave it for a perfect edge if so desired.

Beard Transplant Procedure Explanation

A beard transplant is a cosmetic surgery that takes hairs from one body area and transfers them onto the face. The results are permanent and look natural. People who commit to a beard transplant also decide to do so because they want fuller facial hair, but something is inhibiting their abilities to grow one.

Much like other hair transplant procedures, the beard transplant is a multiple-step process. During the first step, Dr. Cesar harvests hair from a donor area on the body. Typically, these areas are the back and sides of the scalp. The second step of the beard transplant involves Dr. Cesar implanting the donor hair onto the face.

What to Expect During Your Facial Hair Transplantation

Before the surgery starts, the client receives a local anesthetic. This application of anesthetic numbs the donor area(s) and the area(s) where the hair will be transplanted. Once you are appropriately anesthetized, Dr. Cesar begins the first part of the transplant. First, he harvests donor hair follicles. In some cases, he may need to shave the area to provide a clear view of the hair follicles for proper harvesting.

Once the donor hair is gathered correctly, Dr. Cesar begins the next part of the surgery: transplanting the beard hairs. He carefully prepares the grafts and positions each individual follicle, one by one, into your natural facial hair at a precise angle. Dr. Cesar’s exact skills provide a seamless blend of grafts with existing facial hair. The total time for the procedure is 4 to 6 hours, depending on the number of grafts. During your consultation with Dr. Cesar, he will explain the process and give you a detailed idea of what to expect on the day of your transplant.

Aftercare

After your successful facial hair transplantation, you may return home. However, you will also be required to return for follow-up visits. Generally, you should avoid washing your face for 3 days afterward to protect the grafts. You may resume normal face washing in 2 weeks and normal shaving in 3 weeks following the procedure. In addition, you may need to avoid certain medications and even sun exposure.

Dr. Cesar provides a detailed list of instructions for properly caring for the area after surgery and what to expect throughout your recovery.

Beard and Mustache Transplant Candidacy

Virtually anyone can have a beard or mustache transplant. The reason you may find yourself desiring a facial hair restoration is different for everyone. One of the most prominent candidates for a beard transplant is an adult struggling to grow a full beard. In addition, other candidates include anyone struggling with alopecia areata, alopecia barbae, any illness preventing you from growing hair, or burns and scars hindering your beard, mustache, goatee, or sideburn’s appearance.

If you have questions regarding facial hair transplantation candidacy, you can speak more in detail with the doctor during your consultation.

Beard Transplant Side Effects

Beard transplants are a safe, effective procedure when performed by a skilled, knowledgeable surgeon. However, like other procedures, it does have certain risks or side effects. The beard transplant does require a recovery period. During this time, you may experience temporary side effects that include:

  • Redness

  • Numbness

  • Swelling

  • Tightness

  • Scabbing

If you experience any of these side effects, they are minimal and resolve on their own. During your consultation with Dr. Cesar, you can speak more in-depth about a beard transplant’s risks and side effects.
