A facial hair transplant (or beard transplant) allows us to transfer hairs from the back of your head (where it usually grows thicker) to areas on your face where your facial hair growth is thin or missing. We can apply this procedure to the goatee and mustache area, beards, or even sideburns. We utilize automated follicular unit extraction, or automated FUE, as well as FUT hair transplant procedures. Both procedures produce individual follicular units for more precise results. The number of grafts involved and the procedure’s length will vary depending on the size of the facial area being covered and the patient’s desired results. Most beard hair transplants take anywhere from two to eight hours. Occasionally, a second procedure to transplant additional hairs may be necessary.
