BEARD TRANSPLANT
Are you unhappy with your beard growth? Is it patchy, inconsistent, or barely there? If you’re looking for a way to achieve a fuller beard, then why not consider a beard transplant with the experts at Este Medical Group.
How Does FUE Beard Transplant Work?
As the trend for facial hair continues, beard transplants are becoming more and more popular. Many men are unhappy with their beard growth and are now turning to modern methods in hair transplant technology to achieve a beard they can be proud of.
Whether you are looking to achieve a fuller beard, a designer stubble look, or have a goatee or moustache, our experts at Este Medical can talk you through the procedure at your no obligation consultation.
FUE stands for Follicular Unit Extraction. It is a minimally invasive treatment that involves our specialist hair surgeon using hair from a ‘stable zone’ which is most commonly at the back or side of the head, to correct hair density in the area you wish to improve – the beard, goatee, moustache, or sideburns for instance. The site of the hair that is used to correct the area of concern is called the donor site. If you are bald or balding and are concerned about hair being removed from your head, it is also possible to use chest hair as a donor site. Hair for beard transplants typically needs to be fine.
Am I Suitable For a Facial Hair Transplant?
To have a facial hair transplant you will need to have some hair on your body that can be extracted and relocated to the site you want to improve. So, even if you are bald or balding and don’t want to have your head hair removed, if you have hair elsewhere on your body it may be possible.
Beard transplants are usually done with hair from the back or side of the head, with beard hair under the chin, or with chest hair. If you are unsure about your suitability, book in for your no obligation consultation with one of our hair care specialists and we will be able to give you a definite answer.

FAQ's
Are There Any Risks With a Beard Transplant?
When you undergo your beard transplant you may notice a certain amount of redness in the area where your hair is implanted. This, however, should decrease and fade within the next few days. Certain hair transplants may need a little extra aftercare and attention and we will advise you about this when you come in for your consultation, and if it is applicable to your procedure. If you are concerned about any aspect of the beard transplant process, please just ask our experts – we want you to feel as comfortable and confident as possible during the procedure.
How Much Downtime Will There Be?
Beard transplants only use a local anaesthetic, so that means you can get straight back on with your day once the procedure is completed. However, your skin will need time to heal properly and this should take between five to seven days. After this, any reddening should lessen and fade, and if you experienced any swelling, this will have subsided.
What Results Can I Expect?
The results you experience will be permanent and noticeable immediately. Our surgeons are highly skilled in their work and they will ensure your beard transplant looks as natural as possible. Transplanted hair follicles will be placed at the right angle to match the rest of your beard, and to give the best results for density and fullness. For more information about expected results, please speak to our specialists during your consultation.
Will My Beard Transplant Be Permanent?
Yes, your beard transplant will be permanent and you will be able to see a difference as soon as the surgeon finishes implanting the hair follicles. However, your results will improve over time but generally by month seven you should see the full and best result. Your new implanted hair will start and continue to grow just as the hair in the rest of your beard does. Enjoy!
