What is a Beard Transplant ?

A beard transplant is a procedure that involves transplanting (or “transporting”) hairs from a patient’s donor area (the back and sides of their head) to the recipient area, which in this case would be the beard or moustache or sideburns. In essence restoring facial hair. This is done via an FUE beard transplant.

Patients typically want a natural, fuller, and well-defined beard that complements their facial structure and adds more of a “manly” look. This result is achieved via correct angulation placement and direction of the transplanted grafts into the beard area. This increases density to the beard via blending into the existing beard hair.

A beard transplant is ideal for men who:

  • Struggle with patchy or uneven beard growth
  • Can’t grow a beard due to genetics or past skin trauma
  • Want a fuller, sharper jawline or moustache
  • Have facial scarring that prevents normal hair growth

The transplanted hair is permanent, and once healed, it can be shaved, trimmed, and styled just like a natural beard.

What Makes a Good Candidate for a Beard Transplant ?

As long as a patient has realistic expectations on what can be achieved based on the size of the surface area of the beard to be treated and the quality and quantity of their donor area, this is a great first step towards being a good candidate for a beard transplant in Liverpool. Other factors include:

  • Being in good general health – this ensures safety during the procedure as well as good healing and graft survival rates.
  • Having a patchy or uneven beard – this can be treated with a beard transplant.
  • Struggle to grow a beard due to genetics – an assessment is made on the areas to be treated
  • Have scars where hair doesn’t grow – an assessment is required as scars can pose a problem when it comes to having good blood flow to make sure the transplanted grafts survive
  • Having sufficient donor area – one of our surgeons will assess your donor area and discuss family hair loss history to make sure that a beard transplant is the correct decision.

The Beard Transplant Procedure Process

You can see the beard transplant process in the timelapse video. We operate on a doctor-led approach which means that our doctors perform the parts involving any piercing/cutting of the skin. Technicians assist the doctor with any other parts that don’t involve piercing/cutting of the skin. The day involves:

  1. Consultation & Design – The doctor will assess you on the day as well as design your beard. You will have a consent form to sign.
  2. Local Anaesthetic – The technicians will shave and prepare the donor area. The doctor will then inject local anaesthetic to numb the area.
  3. Extraction Phase – This is where the doctor extracts the donor area grafts to be used later on.
  4. Lunch Break – A 10-15 minute lunch break is given to the patient and team.
  5. Incision Phase – The doctor will inject local anaesthetic into the recipient area to numb it and then perform the incisions.
  6. Implantation Phase – The technicians will now implant the grafts into the recipient area.
  7. Aftercare and Discharge – The doctor will give aftercare instructions as well as the aftercare kit and discharge the patient.

Beard Transplant Cost in Liverpool

The cost of a beard transplant in Liverpool depends on a few factors namely:

  • the size of the surface area to be restored
  • the quality and availability of the donor area
  • medical history to assess future hair loss potential for donor area conservation
  • skin and hair type

The cost for a beard transplant is typically around the £5,500 – £6,000 mark as most beards involve a larger area of the cheeks as well as sideburns and moustache areas. If the area is smaller and/or patchy, then the price will be reflected accordingly.

We also have finance options available for patients to spread the cost our over a longer period of time to better manage the payments.

FAQs

The only parts that are uncomfortable are the administration of the local anaesthetic which last for less than 1 minute. After this, the rest of the procedure is pain free.

The results of a beard transplant should last a lifetime with proper care. This is because the hair is taken from the donor area and so will retain it’s characteristics that it had but just grow in a different area, the beard.

No you do not. We do the shaving for you. The donor area is always shaven to make extraction easier. The recipient area sometimes get shaven, other times not. This is decided on the day by the doctor.

Patient Testimonials

Aside from achieving fantastic results, we believe that keeping in touch with our patients before, during and after their hair transplantation procedure is paramount – it helps to keep our patients feeling calm and in control. We’re always on hand to provide guidance, support and aftercare advice. Time and again, our patients tell us that this is what sets us apart from other clinics.
