A beard transplant is an aesthetic procedure in which hair follicles are extracted from a donor area, usually the back of the scalp, and implanted into the beard region. These follicles integrate naturally to create a full and even beard.
This procedure is ideal for men with a patchy beard, bare areas, or facial hair asymmetry. It is also suitable for those wishing to reshape or increase the density of their beard. A consultation will help assess your goals and define a tailored plan based on your facial structure.
This technique provides a permanent solution for thickening or rebuilding facial hair while respecting your natural features.
The procedure begins with a consultation to determine the desired shape and density of the beard. Under local anesthesia, follicles are extracted one by one from the donor site and carefully implanted into the beard area. The procedure lasts between four and six hours, depending on the size of the area treated.
Local anesthesia is used, making the procedure painless. After the surgery, mild discomfort or tightness may be felt but generally subsides quickly and is easily managed with prescribed medication.
You may experience redness, swelling or small scabs in the days following the procedure. These are temporary and usually resolve within one week. Your practitioner will advise you on how to support optimal healing.
Avoid touching or rubbing the treated area. Use gentle skincare products and avoid aggressive cosmetics. You should also avoid direct sun exposure and strenuous physical activity for at least two weeks.
Shaving is not recommended during the first two weeks to allow the grafts to settle. You may resume light shaving after about fifteen days, but always follow your practitioner’s recommendations.
Initial recovery takes around seven to ten days, during which redness and scabs disappear. Light activities can usually be resumed the next day, but intense physical effort should be avoided for two weeks.
Light activity such as walking can be resumed after 48 hours. Intense sports, especially those involving contact or sudden movements, should be avoided for two weeks to protect the treated area.
A light head covering may be worn, but it should not apply pressure to the treated area. Your practitioner will advise you on the most suitable type and timing for wearing it.
Direct sun exposure must be avoided during the initial weeks. Once healing is complete, apply a high-protection sunscreen to shield the area from UV damage.
Initial results appear after three months when new hair begins to grow. Final results, with a full and natural-looking beard, are typically visible after twelve months.
