Beard and mustache transplant: FAQs
We at GAGA Clinic perform beard and moustache transplants using the latest techniques for the extraction of grafts, which deliver better results in terms of density and leave almost no scarring compared to the traditional methods used to perform hair transplants.
The following are some of the most frequently asked questions and answers about the beard and moustache transplant. In any case, if you have any other questions or inquiries, please feel free to contact us directly.
- How many grafts should be transplanted to achieve the shape of the beard that I want?
- In fact, there is no fixed number of grafts required, since the number varies depending on each case. If the area of the beard transplant is free of hair, it will be necessary to implant 4500-5000 grafts. If, however, one wishes to intensify the hair in the area, it will be necessary to implant 3000-3500 grafts; and if one wishes to fill the gaps in the beard, it will be necessary to implant 1000-2000 grafts.
- How long does the beard and moustache transplant take?
Due to the nature of the facial skin, which is more flexible than the scalp skin, the grafts are generally implanted slowly to allow for a maximum control and natural view of the follicles. Beard transplants take about 3-4 hours to complete, compared with 2-3 hours for scalp hair transplants; however, this depends on the size of the area that needs to be covered and the density of the beard.
- Will the hair growth of the beard be the same as in the scalp?
- If you are worried about whether the new hair transplanted in the beard will grow exactly like the hair of the scalp, that is different in nature, we can tell you that there is no need to worry. In the beard, transplanted hair will grow as any facial hair, and it will have the same characteristics as natural facial hair.
- Will the beard transplantation will be painful?
- Similar to any hair transplantation in the scalp, hair transplantation in the beard does not cause any pain. It takes approximately 3-5 minutes in the anterior area and 5-7 minutes in the posterior area during anesthesia; however, the pain is very similar to the needle prick and goes away soon after.
- How long the operation takes and how long should you stay in Istanbul?
Normally, you should stay in Istanbul for just two days. For example, if you arrive in Istanbul on Wednesday morning, you will be welcomed at the airport at landing time and transferred to the hotel. After that, you will be driven to the hospital for a blood test and first consultation. Then, you can make a tour around the city and have a good time in Istanbul.
You are advised to take a rest in the hotel after the operation on the second day. You will come the following day for a checkup and have the bandage removed. You can take your flight home on Friday afternoon!
- What are the steps and stages for a beard and moustache transplant?
- After the anesthesia takes effect, the medical team at GAGA Clinic Hair Transplant Center begins extracting the hair follicles from the donor area located behind or to the side of the head, and it also begins opening the channels in the receiving area as in a scalp hair transplant. An experienced team like GAGA Clinic medical staff has the knowledge and experience needed to choose hair that matches the facial hair closely at this step. Afterward, hair follicles are re-implanted in the receiving area, taking the hair growth angle into account so that the resulting hair looks natural.
- What are the expected results for beard and moustache transplant?
GAGA Clinic experts at GAGA Clinic in Turkey promise to give you realistic results, and they will be by your side until the very end of your life. Our team of professionals restores your natural appearance by following the natural direction of hair growth. It will be impossible to tell the difference between natural hair and transplanted hair.
- What are the side effects of the beard transplant?
- If the patient properly follows our doctors' instructions, he may not experience any side effects after the beard transplant. However, as the patient undergoes a surgical procedure, he can expect some redness and swelling in the facial area after the beard transplant (usually about 5 days). The patient can get over these symptoms with good care and patience. Two days after the operation, it is recommended to eat soft foods in the jaw area, such as juices, liquids, and soups, to give greater stability to the grafts in the transplanted area. As a normal part of the process, hair will fall out during the first week. The side effect is common as part of the hair cycle stage, and will soon return within 2-3 months. You will see noticeable results in your implanted area within 4-5 months; after 7-8 months, you will achieve the final results of your beard transplant.
- When can I shave my beard after the operation?
- During the first 10 days following the procedure, hair implants should not be shaved. In general, only scissors should be used to shave the beard hair after two weeks and until the fifth month after the operation; after this period has passed, you can use razor blades or other shavers.
- What is the price of a beard and moustache transplant?
- The cost of the package starts at 2000 USD for a beard transplant alone. In case you wish additional services such as accommodation and transportation, additional amount will be added to the total cost. If you are looking for a beard and moustache transplant in Turkey, GAGA Clinic has not only the best medical staff and techniques, but also the best prices and offers.
