Beard Moustache and Goatee transplant
Introduction to Beard Transplantation
A strong, well-groomed beard is not just a trend; it's a statement of self-assuredness and character. For many, a full and luscious beard is a symbol of masculinity and confidence. However, not everyone is blessed with the ability to grow a thick beard. This is where beard transplantation at BHI Clinic comes into play.
People travel from overseas for beard transplants in Bangkok, Thailand because of the combination of affordability and high quality. Even when factoring in flights and accommodation, the procedure is often significantly cheaper than in many other countries.
What is a Beard Transplantation?
Beard transplantation is a cosmetic procedure that involves transplanting hair follicles from one part of the body, typically the back of the head, to the facial area. This procedure is ideal for men who genetically lack facial hair, individuals with scars, burns, or a history of laser hair removal, as well as female-to-male transgender patients
Understanding Procedure of the Beard Transplant
There are 2 main approaches to beard transplantation: Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE).
-
- FUT: This method involves removing a strip of skin from the back of the scalp, from which individual hair follicles are extracted and transplanted to the beard area.
- FUE: In this technique, individual hair follicles are directly extracted from the donor area and transplanted to the desired area on the face.The choice between FUE and FUT depends on factors such as donor hair density and patient preferences.
Here's a step-by-step breakdown of the process:
- Consultation:
- The first step involves a consultation with a hair restoration surgeon or specialist.
- The patient's facial hair growth, density preferences, and overall expectations are discussed.
- The surgeon evaluates the donor area (typically the back of the head) to determine its suitability and the number of grafts available.
- The desired beard style and density are discussed, and a plan is formulated.
- Selection of Technique:
- Based on the patient's needs and the surgeon's evaluation, a decision is made between the two primary techniques: Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE).
- Preparation:
- The patient may be advised to avoid certain medications, alcohol, and smoking for a specified period before the procedure.
- The donor area is trimmed or shaved to facilitate the extraction of hair follicles.
- Anesthesia:
- Local anesthesia is administered to numb both the donor and recipient areas, ensuring the patient is comfortable and pain-free throughout the procedure.
- Extraction of Hair Follicles:
- For FUT: A strip of skin containing hair follicles is removed from the donor area. The strip is then dissected under a microscope to obtain individual hair follicles.
- For FUE: Individual hair follicles are directly extracted from the donor area using a specialized tool.
- Preparation of Recipient Sites:
- Tiny incisions are made in the beard area where the hair follicles will be implanted.
- The incisions are made at specific angles and depths to ensure natural-looking results.
- Implantation:
- The extracted hair follicles are carefully implanted into the prepared incisions in the beard area.
- The surgeon ensures that the direction and angle of the implanted hairs match the natural growth pattern of the beard.
- Immediate Post-Procedure Care:
- The treated areas are cleaned, and, in some cases, a bandage may be applied.
- The patient is provided with post-operative care instructions.
Limitations of Beard Transplantation
While beard transplantation can provide transformative results, there are some limitations. Not everyone is a suitable candidate for the procedure. Ideal candidates include those with sufficient donor hair, realistic expectations, and good overall health. Additionally, since a substantial number of grafts from the donor area are often required, there could be a reduced hair reserve if the patient later requires scalp hair transplantation to address balding.
