Beard and mustache transplantation is a cosmetic procedure that aims to enhance the appearance of facial hair, typically the beard and mustache. This procedure involves removing hair follicles from a donor area, usually the scalp, and transplanting them to the desired area of the face. The hair follicles used in the transplantation process are taken from areas of the scalp that are resistant to hair loss, which means that they are less likely to fall out or become thin over time.
The beard and mustache transplantation in Turkey is performed under local anesthesia and can take several hours to complete. The surgeon will first create tiny incisions in the desired area and then carefully insert the hair follicles into these incisions. The transplanted hair follicles will then grow and develop just like the hair in the donor area.
Am I a Good Candidate ?
If you are experiencing patchiness or lack of fullness in your beard or mustache, you may be a good candidate for a beard and mustache transplant. Your surgeon at Soufia Clinic will assess your beard and mustache growth pattern and scalp health to determine if this procedure is the right option for you.

What to Expect
Beard and mustache transplantation can be performed using either FUE or FUT method. Your surgeon at Soufia Clinic will recommend the best method based on your individual needs and goals.
During the procedure, individual hair follicles are removed from a donor area, usually the scalp, using a specialized tool. These follicles are then transplanted to the desired area of the beard or mustache. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and can take several hours to complete.
Procedure steps:
The steps of a beard and mustache transplantation procedure typically involve the following:
- Consultation: A consultation with a hair transplant specialist to determine the feasibility of the procedure and to design a customized treatment plan.
- Anesthesia: The patient is given local anesthesia to numb the area where the hair will be transplanted.
- Harvesting: Hair follicles are harvested from a donor area, typically the back or sides of the scalp.
- Preparation: The harvested follicles are prepared for transplantation.
- Making recipient sites: Tiny incisions are made in the area where the beard or mustache will be transplanted to receive the hair follicles.
- Transplantation: The hair follicles are carefully placed into the recipient sites.
- Post-operative care: The patient will be given instructions for post-operative care, which may include the use of medications, avoiding sun exposure, and avoiding touching the transplanted area.
- Follow-up: The patient will have follow-up appointments to monitor the progress of the transplantation and to address any concerns.
Note: The exact steps may vary depending on the surgeon and the patient’s specific needs.
Recovery and Results: What to Expect After Transplantation?
After the procedure, it is normal to experience some swelling and redness. You will be given instructions for aftercare, including how to care for the transplanted area and when to return for follow-up appointments.
