In some cases, body hair—such as from the chest—can be considered when scalp donor supply is limited. However, body hair often has different texture, curl, growth rate and colour, making it less predictable for creating a natural beard appearance.
At Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic, we prioritise scalp donor hair because it most closely resembles natural facial hair in growth pattern and consistency. Body-hair transplantation is only considered in special situations and requires careful evaluation to ensure a natural final result.
If you have limited donor hair, we will discuss alternative designs that still provide an aesthetic improvement without compromising natural appearance. In most cases, even patients with mild donor limitations can achieve excellent results with strategic graft placement.
