What is Beard Transplant?
A beard transplant is a permanent cosmetic procedure designed to restore hair to areas of the face where facial hair is
thin, patchy, or completely absent. Utilizing the same advanced techniques as scalp hair restoration—such as FUE Hair
Transplant and DHI—surgeons extract healthy hair follicles from a donor area (usually the back of the scalp) and meticulously
implant them into the beard, mustache, or sideburn areas.
Whether you want to fill in a few small gaps, cover facial scars, or grow a complete, thick beard, this procedure provides
a lifelong solution with 100% natural results.
Benefits of DHI Hair Transplant

Most patients begin to see noticeable hair growth within several months after the procedure.
The Beard Transplant Procedure: Step-by-Step
We ensure a painless and seamless experience, precisely tailored to your facial structure.
Consultation & Design
Our medical specialists evaluate your facial symmetry, donor hair quality, and personal goals. Together, we draw a natural beard line that complements your face shape.
Extraction (Donor Area)
Using local anesthesia, individual hair follicles are extracted from the back of your head. The hair here genetically matches the texture of facial hair very closely.
Implantation (Recipient Area)
The surgeon implants the grafts into the designated facial areas at the exact angle and direction of natural beard growth. Depending on the density required, we may use the FUE method or the precise Choi Pen (DHI technique).
Recovery and Aftercare
The face is a sensitive area with high blood circulation, which means it heals remarkably fast.
How Many Grafts Do I Need?
The number of grafts depends entirely on your goals:
- Mustache only: 300 – 500 grafts
- Goatee / Sideburns: 600 – 1,000 grafts
- Patchy cheek correction: 1,000 – 1,500 grafts
- Full beard restoration: 2,000 – 3,000+ grafts
Is a Beard Transplant Painful?
A beard transplant is generally considered a minimally invasive and virtually painless procedure. It is performed under local anesthesia, meaning your face and the donor area will be completely numb during the surgery. You will remain awake and comfortable, often listening to music or resting.
After the anesthesia wears off, you may experience some mild discomfort, tenderness, or a feeling of tightness around the jawline and cheeks. However, this is perfectly normal and easily managed with standard over-the-counter painkillers prescribed by your surgeon. Any minor pain or swelling typically subsides within the first few days.
When Will You See Results?
Just like scalp hair transplants, beard transplant results require patience, as the hair follicles need time to settle and restart their growth cycle.
Here is the typical timeline for your new beard:
