Beard and Mustache Transplantation, Beard and Mustache Transplantation has become a popular trend in recent years. Although there are small differences, the process is almost similar to hair transplantation with DHI. People prefer beard and mustache transplantation for many aesthetic reasons.
The main reason for transplantation is the scarcity of beard and mustache hair. The problem can be solved by placing the hair follicles in certain areas. It is difficult to distinguish the transplanted area from other parts if your transplantation is done by an experienced specialist.
Some people experience scars from hair breakage or surgeries, while others do not like the shape of your beard or mustache. Beard and mustache transplantation is performed for all kinds of demands.
In addition, wounds and burns that may occur due to various reasons, hormonal disorders and metabolic diseases can cause hair loss in the face area. Before deciding on a beard transplant, you should investigate the reason for the loss of beard or mustache. We recommend that you wait until the age of 22 to have a hair transplant.
For beard and mustache transplantation, the back of the nape is usually the donor area. In some cases, doctors may choose to use body hair for donor grafts. They use the DHI method for graft collection and sowing. Generally, around 3000 hair follicles give satisfactory results for beard transplantation. For mustache cultivation, 400-800 roots are sufficient. A hygienic environment is very important for a successful transplant. Therefore, all materials must be sterile.
Beard Transplant
Beard loss is genetic for some people, but for others, various conditions can cause this loss. There are many factors that affect the density of the beard and hair quality. However, hormonal reasons come first. The lack of hormones that will develop and intensify the hair follicle is usually due to the genetic structure.
Beard transplantation with the FUE method is the process of collecting a sufficient amount of hair follicles from the donor area and placing the follicles in the canals in the target area in accordance with the natural angle. Although other facial areas can be donors, grafts from the nape area are generally a better option for a successful transplant.
In the absence of a beard, 1000 to 3000 root transplantation may be sufficient to achieve the desired appearance. However, doctors can plant more roots according to the patient’s request. Since you will be under local anesthesia, you will not feel pain. After the beard transplantation, there is no scar thanks to micro punches. In addition, as a result of placing the hair follicles deeper, there is a possibility of formation of acne-sized cysts in the area. These dermoid cysts are common complications and heal over time.
Before and After Beard Transplantation
The period before and after transplantation is very important as the operation process for successful results. There are some precautions before beard transplantation and some recommendations you should follow after surgery.
Before Beard Transplantation
Beard transplantation is slightly different from hair transplantation as the density of the beard may vary from person to person. If there is a loss, doctors should take into account the density of the beard and harmonize the new roots with the surrounding hair. You will be under anesthesia during the procedure. There are three anesthesia techniques before beard transplantation.
Types of Anesthesia

After Beard Transplantation

Depending on the number of roots, you may experience a rash that can last 4 to 6 hours due to the coagulation of the blood coming out of the small holes. These mild rashes, which cause better nutrition of hair follicles, usually disappear within a week.
Hair follicles experience shock loss approximately two weeks after beard transplantation. After this temporary hair loss, hair follicles grow completely within 4-8 months, depending on the genetic makeup of the person.
