Beard transplantation: beard transplantation is performed in areas where the beard does not grow, the beard area is burned or injured, or there is no beard.
First, the area where beard transplantation is to be done is determined. A drawing that will not disturb the aesthetics and naturalness of the face of the person is prepared. The number of follicles to be taken is determined and the transplantation is planned for areas that have been completely shed due to wound and burns. The follicles can be taken from the hairs on the cheekbones and from the nape region and be transplanted to the beard area.
The beard is not like the hair, its density can vary from person to person. If there is a regional beard loss, the density of the beard is adjusted according to the follicles surrounding the area. Between 1500-3000 follicles can be transplanted. Transplanting around 3000 follicles gives satisfactory results. No problem occurs on the following day of the operation, but, there might be redness on the area operated after a week. Since the follicles are taken with tools that have a tip of 0.6-0.7 mm, no marks are left. It does not matter because it is a featureless hair if taken from the body. If taken from the nape region, there may appear a dilution depending on the number of follicles removed. Operation is a process that requires attention and delicacy. The procedure will take about 4-5 hours, depending on the plastic surgeon and the team. Before the procedure, local anesthesia is applied and then the follicles are taken from the area. The operation is painless and comfortable for the patient. The beard area is washed after 48 hours. You can shave after 30 days.
The results are natural. The marks after the operations can be visible for 10 days. However, no one can tell you have had an operation once the marks are gone. However, once the transplantation is complete, you must follow the care principles. During the recovery period, you will definitely need to use the medications and cures recommended by your doctor. Fifteen days after the process, the beard sheds. The beard shed begins to grow back in the 2nd month and it takes a year for the beard to get to its final state.
