Beard Hair Transplant in India
Beard is a sign of masculinity, implies maturity and exudes confidence in male. Scientifically speaking, beard hairs are maintained by male hormones, testosterone and di-hydrotestosterone. The beard hairs appear after puberty when the hormones become active. Each individual has his unique pattern of beard which is determined by his genetics. Some have thick and coarse beard hairs, while some have very fine brown hairs. Unfortunately, some individuals, despite reaching adulthood don’t seem to grow adequate hairs and in adequate density. Such individuals are good candidates for beard transplantation.
In this procedure, hairs are transplanted in the beard region after extracting hairs from some other part of the body most commonly from the scalp by FUE or the FUT method. It is also called facial hair restoration or beard reconstruction. Indications of Beard Transplant

More on Beard Transplant
The time after your beard transplant procedure is highly important. It is vital to understand the complications or limitations of the hair transplant. The surgeon & team will explain to you the complete schedule during the consultation & after the procedure. They may ask you to avoid:
- Few patients may feel numbness around mouth and difficulty in opening mouth due to the effect of anaesthesia. Hence, they are advised to take juices and fluids for 1 day. Then semi-solid foods on 2nd day.
- For the first 5 days, the areas transplanted must be kept moist. This helps to decrease the scab ofrmation and allows the hairs to set properly, helping assure the maintenance of proper angulation of hair growth.
- Antibiotics and analgesics (for the donor area) are given for seven days.
- Shaving is not permitted until the eighth day.
- Transplanted hairs start to regrow by the fourth month, and can be shaved or allowed to grow out.
- Most patients are satisfied with the initial density from one procedure but a secondary, touch-up procedure can be performed after 1 year to create further density.
- Bumpiness or irregularity of skin can happen in the trasnplanted area especially goatee and moustache area.
- Improper direction of grafts when not placed in ultra-acute angles. However, with proper technique and usage of smallest slits, these complications are almost nullified.
- Mild redness and slight swelling in the facial area for a few days after the procedure, is common and will reduce in 2-3 days.
