Your Journey
Consultation
When you come in for your consultation, we’ll take a look at your beard to assess the hair loss and decide if surgery is the right course of treatment for you. This will also allow us to give you a cost estimate for the beard transplant, depending on how many hair grafts we believe will be needed.
Procedure
Beard transplants are carried out under local anaesthetic, which means you will be awake during the procedure but will not be in any pain. It will either use FUE or FUT techniques, depending on what was decided during your consultation, and will take approximately 4-6 hours. It is typically a day case procedure, meaning that you will be allowed to go home the same day.
Aftercare
Patients will find that have scabbing for up to two weeks after the operation, while the wounds from the transplant heal. If possible, we recommend patients take a week off work for the operation. We offer all patients a step-by-step aftercare guide to ensure the success of their transplant.
As with any transplant, the transplanted hair will initially fall out while the roots of the new hair establish themselves. The new beard hair will grow back between six and nine months after the operation. As the transplanted hair comes from the scalp, it is a slightly different texture, but it looks the same when transplanted alongside beard hair. Once your beard has grown in, it can be trimmed and treated just like a normal beard.
Beard transplants are carried out the same way as standard hair transplants, except with fewer hair grafts. Typically, beard transplants need between 1,000 and 2,000 grafts. Donor hair is obtained from the back or sides of the scalp through the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) or Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) methods.
The grafts are then carefully implanted into the beard and/or sideburns. In total, the procedure takes approximately 4-6 hours and costs start from £5,000.
