At Lumia Clinic, we are well aware of the pressures facing men to look good all the time! With a healthy beard being considered as a sign of good health and looks, many men come to us looking for a beard transplant.
A beard transplant, or facial hair transplant, in essence transplants (or “transports”) healthy hair follicles by implanting them from the patient donor area (which is typically the back of the patient’s scalp) onto the areas of hair loss of the beard area. All of our beard transplants are carried out by certified hair transplant surgeons. Hair loss, or having sparse facial hair, is a common problem for adult men of all ages.
If you’re concerned about facial hair loss, here’s some helpful information to help you regain your confidence.
What is a Beard Transplant?
Put simply, a beard transplant is a facial hair restoration procedure that works by transplanting your own hair (from other areas of your body namely the back of your scalp), and implanting them into the affected area. A beard transplant is a clinically proven method to treat hair loss in your beard and moustache areas of your face.
How Does a Beard Transplant Work ?
After booking your free consultation with one of our hair transplant surgeons, you will both decide on the beard transplant procedure that is not only going to maximise your end results, but work around your busy schedule.
On the day of your beard transplant, the FUE procedure requires the need for local anaesthetic. This will ensure you won’t feel a thing and can fully relax during the procedure.
Following this, the new beard design will be performed and is then followed by hair extraction from your donor area. The donor area is the area at the back and sides of the head as these follicles are not affected by the hair loss hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and thus are the perfect ones to use. They will then be implanted into the affected area.
Fast forward a few months in order for your new beard hair to grow, you will notice that your new beard will have a natural appearance, looking much fuller than before. What is even more impressive is that your transplant will continually promote beard growth long into the future. It really is a long-term solution!
