For the past decade, great increases have been observed in the frequency of application of beard transplant operation. With the increasing frequency of the application, much more research and development on beard transplantation is made. With becoming the beard growth fashionable, the people who do not have intensive beards or and what is worse, who are beardless, experience locational beard loss due to some factors may experience psychological pressure. The elimination of the beard problems regardless of reasons is possible with beard transplantation applications. The beardless and beard sparsity may have different reasons such as age, hormonal reasons, locational burns, some drugs used and various diseases. In addition to this, the problem may also develop only due to genetic factors.
What is Beard Transplantation?
The beard transplantation is the process of applying hair transplantation to the face area. It is applied as transplanting of the grafts taken from the back of the hair or the appropriate donor area to the beardless parts on the face.
For Whom is the Beard Transplantation Suitable?
The beard transplantation is implemented to the people- Who have no beard on their face due to genetic or environmental factors,
- Who does not have a beard in a small area, in despite of there is a beard on the whole of their face,
- Who are not satisfied with its intensity in despite of the beard grows all over their face,
- Who would like to change the beard intensity in a part of their face?
The person to be transplanted should have reached the age of 20-22, completed the adolescence period and his hormones have fully settled. Under normal conditions, the beard transplantation is not recommended before the age of 20-22 since the beards will grow by themselves until this age range.
The area where the hair follicles will be taken and the area of transplantation of the patient who will have beard transplantation are analysed in detail. The amount of hair follicle to be transplanted are determined. Generally, even if the hair follicles, in other words the grafts are taken from the nape, if the intensity is few in this area, the hair follicles can be taken from other areas of the body. During the operation, first the donor area is anesthetized with local anaesthesia. The hair follicles in the donor are collected one by one by means of a special device. The device makes the hair follicle collection process with a high-resolution camera. Also, it is not made with surgical incision, it is worked with special needles. In other words, no surgical incision is made within the FUE technique.
The hair follicles collected in the chamber of the device are made suitable in a special device. When preparing the hair follicles collected, the channels are opened to the area of the patient to be transplanted. The channel opening device looks like a needle. It opens a channel according to the depth and angle where the follicle will be transplanted. The hair follicles are placed to the channels opened via special needles. According to the situation, it is possible to place hair follicles between 200 and 700. The average duration in the beard transplantation operations is three hours. For some patients, this period can be up to five hours.
Since there is no incision, it does not leave a trace anywhere on the body. Moreover, each hair follicle exhibits a natural appearance as it is placed in a specially opened channel. Another factor that is effective in providing the naturality is correct calculation of the angles.
Before Beard Transplantation
The procedure to be applied before beard transplantation is same as the hair transplantation processes. The patient is examined and the area where the application will be made, and the number of grafts required are determined.Healing Process After Beard Transplantation
The areas of the beard transplantation should not be washed for first 24-48 hours. The red formations such as acne can be seen in the application area for a while, just like in hair transplantation. This situation is normal. Since the face is an extremely sensitive area, the recommendations of the doctor should be strictly followed during the healing process.
Also, the activities that may cause sweating should be avoided for a certain period due to the risk of deformation of the hair follicles in the application area. Otherwise, there may be undesired situations such as holding on the hair follicles to their place and not growing healthy.
The scarf and turtleneck clothes should not be worn for a while and should not be contacted to the hair follicles. To experience a healthy and fast healing process, it is beneficial to apply a rich nutrition program consisting of A, E, C, D, B7 and B12 vitamins and protein group foods which are known to have tissue repair properties. After the operation, the person should not lay face down for a while and the application area should be contacted with the pillow at minimum level.
Even if there are shock falls at first after the operation, the beards grow back in a completely healthy way after a few months. Viewing of the result can last 8-12 months. Approximately 1 month after the beard transplantation, the beards can be shaved with scissor.
