If your formerly healthy, full beard is starting to thin or become patchy, a hair transplant may help restore its appearance. Your beard can lose its volume due to age, genetics, an accident, or disease. At our clinic, we can analyze your facial hair loss and help you choose the best course of action for restoring your formerly full beard.
At our Clinic, Our Doctor utilizes the FUE technique to restore patients’ natural appearance, transplanting donor hairs to fill in blank or patchy spots in their beards.
The ARTAS® iXi robot uses the Follicular Unit Excision (FUE) technique to remove hair follicles from prime donor areas on the back of your head and implants them in the needed recipient areas on your face to create a fuller beard. The ARTAS® iXi
robot utilizes computer-guided AI to map out where the follicles will go for the most natural-looking results.
FUE hair transplants don’t require long incisions to be made and thus provide several notable benefits for beard transplant recipients:
It depends on the number of follicles that need to be harvested and transplanted, but typical beard transplant procedures take about five hours.
That depends on your particular situation and what our specialist determines is needed to fill in your beard, but the average number of harvested hair follicle grafts required for a beard transplant is between 1,600-2,000.
When you schedule a consultation with us, we will evaluate your suitability for a beard transplant. Some examples of qualified transplant patients include:
Hair follicles are taken from the back and sides of your head, where your hair is usually thickest. These areas maintain actively growing hair longer than any other region, which is the same area we harvest hair from for regular hair transplants.
Some hair loss from your beard is typical after the transplant, and this is part of the natural process while the skin heals. We advise you not to shave for 7-10 days after your transplant. Your beard will start growing within a few weeks. After six months, there will be a noticeable difference in growth and beard volume.
A hair follicle is a hair, its root, and the surrounding connective tissue. A follicular unit is a group of hair strands that come through the skin in the same place. A follicular unit may have a single hair or several hairs. A hair graft is a transplanted follicle.
In both of these surgical techniques, the end result is exactly the same – transplantation of individual hair follicles. The primary difference between these two hair restoration methods is the follicle harvesting technique. Follicular Unit Excision or Extraction (FUE) harvests each hair follicle individually, usually with the assistance of a mechanized or robotic tool. Follicular unit transplantation (FUT) involves removal of a thin strip of skin containing hair follicles from the back of the head and harvesting each follicle individually using microscopic excision.
