Beard Transplantation
Beard Transplantation
The beard is the basic element of the masculine image. Sometimes due to genetics and sometimes due to some diseases, sparseness or regional baldness can be seen in the beard area. It is possible to eliminate these situations with beard transplantation.
How does Beard Transplant actually work?
Beard transplantation is performed under local anesthesia between 1-6 hours depending on the number of hair to be transplanted. During the procedure, hair follicles are taken from the neck with the help of a special motor. Then, these roots are carefully placed into the channels opened in the beard area. The first dressing and washing is done on the 3rd day. There are no stitches. There will be no scars left since micro tips are used in the area where the root is taken. The final result of beard transplantation is achieved at the end of 1 year.
