You may have heard of hair transplant. A beard transplant is a similar procedure widely used in cosmetic surgery, which can work miracles in thickening and density of facial hair. A beard transplant is a fairly simple procedure, with minimal operating time; to be more precise, depending on the number of grafts, the operation takes about 5 hours. The technique consists of removing tiny individual hair follicles from the back of the scalp, where the hair is very thick, and then transplanting them into bald areas of the face or areas with low hair density. The grafts are then removed from the back of the head, also known as the donor area, and transplanted into the recipient area. Once the operation is completed, hair regrowth is immediate. Patients will be able to shave only two weeks after the operation.
It is important to know that beard transplants are not so cheap, the cost depends on the need for grafts and the precise location of the implant. The cost of a beard transplant varies between approximately $6000 and $10,000 in the United States and the United Kingdom. However, beard transplantation in Turkey, compared to these markets, is much cheaper. You will finally have the beard you have always dreamed of! The results will certainly boost your morale and self-confidence!

In beard transplantation, the donor area is the name given to the area where the hair follicles to be transplanted are collected before being transplanted into the beard-free areas. The ideal donor area is the nape of the neck. In some cases, however, the number or quality of hair in the donor area may not be sufficient for transplantation. In these cases, other areas of the patient’s body are used as the donor area. Areas that can be used as a donor area include :
