A thick, full beard is a key element of a masculine look and a major source of confidence. Beard loss or patchiness—often caused by genetics, medical conditions, injuries, or scars—can affect a man’s appearance and self-expression.
Beard Transplant offers the most effective solution. Just like a Hair Transplant, follicles are taken from another area of the body and implanted under local anesthesia. The procedure is painless, provides natural and aesthetic results, and is performed by experienced medical teams.
Thanks to advanced techniques and technology, Turkey is one of the leading destinations for successful Beard Transplant procedures.

Who Can Get A Beard Transplant?
When Should You Do Beard Transplant?
When Hair Is Not Growing In The Face Area: You can spot the lack of hair growth in the face, in one part or in the whole face. Male testosterone hormone, also known as DHY, is a factor that determines the growth of beards. These hormones which begin with puberty and grow until 20-21, help the hair grow and increase its density. Therefore, in case of lacking of these hormones, the beard may not grow. Trichorrhexis: Not only the beard, but also all the hair in the body can fall off by a skin disease. Tricorrhexis, which may cause voids in different areas of the beard in the size of the coin or in the entire beard. Stress, boredom, fear, anxiety, sadness and psychological problems lead to hair loss. When the doctor’s recommended drugs did not treat these problems, the most effective way is Beard Transplant. Scars Of Wounds And Burns: After several accidents, scars and burns may occur on the face and hair follicles may die in these areas and prevent the growth of the beard. You can get rid of these scars and get your beard again by doing Beard Transplant. Intensity Or Reshape The Beard: Some beards may be light or shapeless. In such cases, a Beard Transplant can be performed without losing the natural appearance in order to increase the density of the beard or change its shape.
Before Beard Transplant
The beard is examined by your doctor before the operation in Turkey to determine if you are suitable for Beard Transplant. It is recommended not to shave before the examination so that your doctor can see the normal growth of your beard. In addition, blood tests are performed to verify your health condition before the operation. There are some important things to consider before you do the operation: Aspirin, vitamins and blood transfusions should be avoided a week before the procedure. Alcohol and cigarettes should be avoided too a week before the operation. It is preferable to wear a wide shirt, which is easy to take off at the operation day. You should inform your doctor about all the medications you use before the procedure. Beard Transplant is a very sensitive procedure, because it is done in the face area. Therefore, following your doctor’s tips will pass the process easily.

During Beard Transplant Operation
In Beard Transplant procedure in Turkey, the necessary tests are performed and the donor area is determined. Which is usually the back side of the head or any other hairy area in the body. After collecting the follicle, there is no trace left in the body, but the intensity of the hair is reduced as much as it was taken from the hair. For the beard area, in cases where the beard did not grow for any reason, usually the number of grafts will be between 1000 and 3000 grafts to obtain healthy results.
This procedure is made by FUE technique, which is also used in Hair Transplant. FUE, an abbreviation for Follicular Unit Extraction, is the removal of hair follicles from the donor area one by one using a special technological tool and implanted in the beard area. This device has special round pins with diameter 0.7 and 0.8 mm. In the FUE technique, without any incision in the donor area, the follicles taken one by one are transferred to the beard area during the same day, taking into consideration the growth trend. The follicles that have been removed lose their function in the absence of oxygen, and when waiting for a long time cause they are considered alive. Therefore, the follicles should be implanted in the beard as soon as they are picked up.
Once a sufficient number of follicles have been collected, channels in the skin are opened from 0.6mm to 0.8 mm. Since there is no cut in the skin, there are no scars or wounds after the operation. Beard’s hair will grow unilaterally as it is implanted. Because the roots are mono-root, that’s why the picked follicles from the donor area must be separated during the operation.
Beard Transplant Techniques
In stem cell–supported beard restoration, regenerative cells taken from the patient’s own tissue are processed and injected into areas with weak or patchy beard growth. These cells activate dormant follicles, improve blood circulation, and strengthen the existing beard structure. Because the treatment works on a cellular and regenerative level, it increases density without surgery and enhances the healing of transplanted grafts in beard transplant procedures. Stem cell therapy is ideal for men who want a fuller, stronger, and more uniform beard appearance.
Advantages of Beard Stemcell Technique:
Strengthens thin or patchy beard areas,
Boosts density without surgical intervention,
Faster healing when combined with beard transplant,
Natural and minimally invasive treatment,
No scars and no downtime.
In liposuction stem cell beard therapy, regenerative stem cells extracted from adipose tissue are processed and injected into the beard area. These high-quality cells enhance follicle regeneration, making beard hair thicker and healthier. When combined with beard transplantation, liposuction stem cells improve graft survival, reduce inflammation, and help achieve a more even and natural result.
Advantages of Liposuction Stemcell for Beard:
High regenerative capacity and strong follicle activation,
Supports graft survival after beard transplant,
Improves density and texture in patchy beard zones,
Faster recovery and reduced swelling,
Minimally invasive with no visible scarring.
In beard FUE transplantation, individual hair follicles are extracted from the donor area—typically the back of the head—and implanted into beard regions lacking density. Each graft is placed according to the natural growth direction of beard hair, ensuring seamless blending with existing facial hair. The FUE method creates no linear scar, and the micro-incisions heal quickly. This technique is ideal for filling patchy areas, shaping the beard line, or achieving a full beard look.
Advantages of Beard FUE Technique:
No linear scar and minimal downtime,
Natural blending with existing beard texture,
High-density results with precise placement,
Suitable for partial or full beard reconstruction,
Can correct scars or gaps in the beard.
In manual punch beard FUE, follicles are extracted manually using a hand-controlled punch. This technique allows the surgeon to feel each follicle’s angle and depth, reducing the risk of graft damage and ensuring high survival rates. Manual punch is especially effective for the delicate areas of the beard, where angles vary and precision is essential for natural results.
Advantages of Manual Punch Beard FUE:
Extremely precise extraction with low transection rates,
Natural angle and direction placement,
Ideal for detailed beard shaping,
Minimal trauma and quick healing,
Perfect for patients with sensitive donor areas.
In Sapphire FUE beard transplantation, ultra-sharp sapphire blades are used to open micro-channels for graft placement. Sapphire blades create smoother, narrower incisions, allowing higher density in beard lines and mustache areas. Since the trauma is minimized, healing is faster and swelling is significantly reduced. This method is ideal for men who want maximum density and natural shaping in beard transplantation.
Advantages of Sapphire Beard FUE Technique:
High-density results with sapphire micro-channels,
Reduced scabbing and swelling,
More natural direction and angle control,
Fast healing compared to standard FUE,
Perfect for redefining beard shape and fullness.
In DHI beard transplantation, follicles are extracted using micro punches and implanted directly into the beard area using Choi Implanter Pens. This technique allows simultaneous channel opening and graft placement in one step, ensuring perfect control of angle, depth, and direction—critical for achieving a natural beard look. DHI is ideal for detailed beard and mustache work, especially in areas requiring dense packing and precision.
Advantages of DHI Beard Technique:
Maximum precision with Choi Pens,
Perfect placement for natural beard angles,
Minimal bleeding and very fast recovery,
Ideal for detailed lines (mustache, goatee, jawline),
Higher graft survival due to reduced handling time.
After the Beard Transplant Operation
Proper post-operation care is essential for natural beard growth, strong graft survival, and a smooth healing process.
Follow these simple aftercare instructions to protect the transplanted area, avoid complications, and achieve the best results.
Your transplanted beard area is very sensitive during the first 10 days.
Avoid touching, rubbing, or applying pressure. Red dots and minor redness are normal and will gradually disappear after washing. Wear a loose mask or avoid anything that may contact the beard area.
For the first 2 nights, avoid placing the transplanted area directly on the pillow.
Sleep in a semi-upright position to reduce swelling and prevent damage to the grafts.
Your first wash will be performed by the doctor.
During the first two weeks, the transplanted hair may shed—this is completely normal. The roots stay intact, and the beard will regrow stronger.
With proper care, the final shape becomes visible after 6–9 months.
Use all prescribed medications, lotions, and care products exactly as instructed by your doctor.
Do not apply any non-recommended product to the area.
Do not use a shaving machine without the doctor’s approval.
During the first month, avoid shaving machines and use only scissors for gentle trimming.
