Beard Transplant

What is this technique?

A beard transplant uses FUE technique to harvest scalp grafts and implant them into patchy or bare areas of the beard, moustache, sideburns, or jaw line. The grafts are taken from the back of the scalp — where hair texture most closely resembles facial hair — and placed at precise angles to match natural beard growth direction. The procedure takes 3 to 6 hours under local anaesthetic. Results are permanent: transplanted follicles will grow for life and can be shaved, trimmed, and styled exactly like natural beard hair. Istanbul is one of the world's leading destinations for beard transplant surgery, with clinics performing high volumes and experienced teams specialising in facial hair restoration.

Who is it best for?

• Men with patchy or uneven beard growth due to genetics, hormonal factors, or scarring
• Patients with facial hair gaps from acne scars, burns, or previous surgical incisions
• Those seeking a fuller, more defined moustache, beard line, or sideburns
• Candidates combining a beard transplant with a scalp FUE session in the same Istanbul visit to save a second trip
