Beard Transplant

Beard Transplant

Transform Your Look with Beard Transplant

 

The ever-growing beard styles and trends have further reinforced many men’s natural desires to have thick, luscious facial hair. Unfortunately, not every man can make that happen on his own. While some men hit the genetic jackpot for body hair, others lean more towards a clean-shaven look without even having to shave. Lucky for those who want a beard but can’t seem to accomplish the feat on their own, beard transplants is a solution.

Usually, we extract hair from the back of the head, which looks and feels like facial hair. This hair is moved to the lower half of the face so that a beard or mustache can soon grow back. Thinking of getting a beard transplant but don’t know enough to decide? You’ve come to the right place. Whether you want a stubble beard or something long and flowing, get rid of a patchy beard with the decision to receive a beard transplant – we can help.

What is a Beard Transplant?

Healthy, thick hair that has flourished elsewhere on your head is extracted and transplanted to the beard area of the face, allowing it to naturally grow on the face and continue doing so like a normal facial hair follicle. The hair usually comes from the rear of the patient’s head for consistency’s sake.

Our Hair Transplant Doctor removes the hair follicles from the donor area, then implants them back into the skin of the beard area so they can create new growth. Our Hair Transplant Doctor must be careful to implant them at the natural angle of the hair, so it reflects the original hair growth pattern. Generally, only about 2,000- 3,000 grafts are necessary for a full beard. Sometimes to mimic the thickness and fullness of normal beards, our Hair Transplant Doctor will use two hair-grafts instead of individual ones.

Our
Technique

We at Evolved Hair Clinics in Perth and Brisbane practise DFI (Direct Follicle Insertion) Technique on our patients.
It is a care system, using FUE and specialized implanter pens, delivering natural results.

1

Extraction

Extraction

Direct Follicle Insertion is combining the extreme skill set of a Hair Transplant Doctor trained in Manual extraction, and biohacking/supercharging them with the latest in motorised technology. Simply put our Hair Transplant Doctor can extract grafts safer, faster and with the smallest of micro instruments, preserving the appearance of donor area.

2

Graft Preservation

Graft Preservation

Then we employ advanced graft tissue preservation techniques (medical terminology for graft survivability) through the use of chilled graft trays, ATP, Growth Factor Therapy and Hypothermasol. This creates an environment where the grafts feel like it's still in the body. Nothing is ever left to chance, as you only have 1 donor area.

3

Implantation

Implantation

Once we get the hairs you need, each graft is carefully placed into an ultra-fine implanter and we insert each graft at the correct angle, depth and direction, ensuring a natural placement.

Beard transplants aren’t very painful.

Beard Transplants requires a local anaesthetic and is virtually pain-free. A typical Beard Transplant would require extracting up to 2,000 grafts and might take up to 9 hours, while larger cases may require two days in surgery. All this while we ensure your time in the clinic is as comfortable as possible – you can watch any of our streaming services or enjoy some nice music.

Beard transplants aren’t limited to just the lower facial area.

You aren’t limited to the beard area with a beard transplant, in fact. You can have hair grafted onto eyebrows, sideburns or just about anywhere else where you’re experiencing hair loss.

Recovery time for a Beard Transplant.

Apart from redness or swelling a few days following the transplant (which will go away in a few days), there are virtually no side effects. A procedure usually takes about 5 – 9 hours and is an inpatient procedure that will send you home right after. After the transplant fully heals, it will grow and act just like a normal beard.

You’ll be able to grow your beard faster, style and trim it as normal! That’s the whole point.

What should you keep in mind before deciding on a beard restoration?

Of course, with every medical procedure, there are a few downsides.

  • Firstly, it’s not cheap. Beard transplants might put a strain on the wallet, which makes some men too intimidated to try it. Saving up is a good idea to make it more affordable and Evolved Clinics in Perth and Brisbane offers an interest-free payment plan to make it feasible for you.
  • Secondly, you’ll have to donate hair from other parts of your scalp or body. This usually comes from the back of the scalp since that hair is closest to the texture of facial hair.
  • Thirdly, a natural side effect of the procedure is initial hair shedding. Your originally transplanted hairs will fall out about 3-4 weeks after the procedure.

While the new implanted hairs may fall out, there’s no need to worry. In a short few weeks the transplanted hairs will begin to regrow, and will continue to grow for a lifetime. It’s just a part of the process to get a thick new beard.

Hair loss occurs when the cycle of hair growth is disrupted, resulting in the hair shedding faster than usual, re-growing poorly or not growing back at all. The most common cause of hair loss is hereditary male and female pattern baldness. However, the following conditions can cause hair loss, or alopecia, in men and women:
A hair transplant involves taking healthy hair follicles from a part of the scalp where hair is genetically programmed to keep growing for life and transplanting them to the areas affected by hair loss. These newly implanted hairs will last a lifetime.
The only part of the procedure during which you will feel any pain is the local anesthesia with numbing injections. These are similar to injections at the dentist. The injections take around 5 to 10 minutes to administer in the donor and recipient areas. We apply a vibrating massage device to the area being injected in order to “distract the nerves” and reduce the discomfort from the needle. The local anesthesia provides around 2 to 3 hours of numbing effect on the scalp. We will need to repeat the local anaesthesia but aim to do so while the skin is still numb so that the injections are not felt.

We provide state-of the-art Liposomal ATP aftercare sprays which optimise the healing and growth of your precious grafts",

"The day after the procedure our friendly staff will carry out a complimentary no contact hair wash. Patients are advised to wait at least three days after the procedure before undertaking a contact hair wash. By around day seven the patient’s head should be scab free.",

"But far beyond that, we see our patients as lifelong beneficiaries of our hair care service. You’ll be able to stay in contact with us for ongoing support and help on monitoring your hair growth progress, looking after your scalp, and preventing any potential problems.",

"DFI has the advantage of avoiding the linear scar left by FUT as individual follicular units are taken only leaving micro dots which are covered by hair. Because it leaves minimal scarring DFI is ideal for people who like to keep their hair short, such as a number 1 or number 2 haircut.

Our Hair Transplant Doctor completes 100% of the surgery.
Patients find the procedure comfortable and can watch a range of films and TV shows on our various streaming services. Some prefer to listen to music or have a snooze.

7 days after a DFI procedure most patients are free of scabs and display little or no signs that surgery has taken place (other than the new graft stubble).
The newly transplanted hairs will typically shed 2-4 weeks post-op and there will be a period of waiting for the new hairs to re-appear. In most cases, some of the transplanted hair will start to appear 2-3 months after a hair transplant.
Most patients see their near full results around 9 months to one year after a hair transplant. In some cases, patients can be a “slow/late grower”. These patients may have to wait 18 months to see full maturation of the transplanted hairs.

This does vary depending on your procedure but, in most cases, light exercise can be restarted 6 days after surgery and full exercise can be restarted at day 10 post op.
This does vary from patient to patient but most patients do not have redness in their scalp after day 10-14 post-op. Patients with fair skin types can retain skin redness for longer.
You will not be able to drive yourself home on the evening of the surgery. It is fine to drive home the following morning.
