BEARD TRANSPLANT

In Athens
A beard transplant is a minimally invasive surgical method for enhancing density, definition, and evenness of the facial hair in those areas where it has thinned out completely. Clinique de Monsieur’s experienced doctors have knowledge regarding male facial structures, the direction of growth of hair, as well as the aesthetic balance when restoring a beard through beard restoration using clinical guidelines.

What is a Beard Transplant?

A beard transplant is a type of hair transplant which extracts the healthy hair follicles from the donor region (the back of your head) and then implants them into the bald spots of your beard.

Each follicle is implanted individually so as to create:

  • The direction of natural beard growth
  • Evenness of density of the beard
  • The defined edges of the beard
  • A symmetrical face

Because of the difference in angles of facial hair growth, as well as the varying densities (cheek, jawline, chin, mustache) of these areas, each follicle must be precisely placed to provide a natural look.

Who is eligible for Beard Restoration?

Men may be eligible for beard restoration if they experience bald patches, low density, complete baldness in certain areas, scarring that has resulted in hair loss, or asymmetrical beard growth. During the consultation, the physician performs a thorough medical evaluation to assess the availability and quality of donor hair, analyze the proportions and characteristics of the patient’s face, and estimate the achievable density after the procedure in order to recommend the most suitable and personalized treatment plan.

Recovery and Growth Timeline

Recovery usually uneventful. The first few days post-procedure you may notice:

  • Slight redness around the treated area
  • Small scabs that protect the newly implanted hairs

Temporary loss of the transplanted hairs may occur within the first few weeks of the procedure; this is a normal phase of the growth cycle of the new hairs.

Over time the new beard will begin to develop and grow for approximately 8-12 months until the transplanted hairs reach their maximum growth potential.

The transplanted hairs are permanent and will grow like your other hairs.

Male Features

A beard contributes greatly to defining masculinity in a man. Therefore, the design must take into account:

  • The shape of the jawline
  • The projection of the chin
  • The ratio of the facial features
  • Your desired style of beard

The goal is not just to add density to your beard but to also create definition that will enhance the masculine features of the patient’s face without looking unnatural or disproportionate.

Facial Hair Design

Hair does not grow equally on the face. The angle of growth and the direction of the facial hair differs across the cheek, jawline, chin, and mustache. Throughout the implantation process the physician will carefully control
  • The depth of the implantation
  • The direction of the implantation
  • The angle of the implantation/li>
This accuracy will ensure that the transplanted hairs will grow naturally and will integrate perfectly with the surrounding facial hair. Incorrectly placed hairs may produce unnatural designs or noticeable inconsistencies and therefore requires the skill of a trained physician.

Beard Transplant Procedure

The beard transplantation is conducted under local anesthesia in a controlled and sanitary environment.

The steps involved in the procedure include:

  • Cautious removal of the follicular units
  • The strategic placement of the follicular units according to the anatomy of the beard
  • The conservative planning of the density of the beard
  • The consideration of the symmetry of the face

Most patients are calm during the procedure, and the majority of patients report no discomfort during the process.
