Beard Transplant

Beards have become a symbol of masculinity and style, and many men desire a fuller, more defined beard. For those struggling with patchy or thin facial hair, a beard transplant offers a promising solution. At Troy Hair Transplant Clinic in Turkey, we specialize in beard transplantation, providing natural and lasting results. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore everything you need to know about beard transplants, from the procedure itself to post-operative care and benefits.

What is a Beard Transplant?

A beard transplant is a surgical procedure that involves transferring hair follicles from one part of the body, typically the scalp, to the beard area. This procedure helps men achieve a fuller, more even beard by filling in patches and increasing density. The logic of the hair transplant and beard transplans is same.

How Does a Beard Transplant Work?

Transplantation of beard is a meticulous process that involves extracting hair follicles from a donor area and implanting them into the beard region to enhance density and coverage. At Troy Hair Transplant Clinic, we use the advanced Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technique to ensure natural-looking results and minimal scarring. Beard and hair transplants are actually the same procedures. The only difference between them is the recipient area.

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) Technique

At Troy Hair Transplant Clinic, we use the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technique for beard transplantation. This method is the same method we use for fue hair transplant as well and it involves:

Donor Area Selection: Hair follicles are typically harvested from the back of the scalp, where hair is more resistant to thinning.

Extraction: Individual hair follicles are extracted using a specialized micro-punch tool.

Preparation: The extracted follicles are carefully prepared and sorted for transplantation.

Transplantation: Tiny incisions are made in the beard area, and the follicles are meticulously implanted.
