What is Mustache Transplant?
Beard and moustache are important for the appearance of men, as they highlight the contour of the face and accentuate the masculine virility and also cover the unpleasing areas of the chin or cheeks. Facial hair may in some places be void or missing, because of scar, hereditary impairment or hormonal deficiency. FUE technique will be used to solve this problem, and you will have a great moustache.
How does Moustache Transplant work?
FUE technique has brought the solution for men who are having problems with their moustache. Moustache loss does not only cause appearance problems but also mental issues for men. The FUE technique will help to solve these problems by transferring follicles from a donor area and implant them in the moustache area. You will have a lifetime solution by this technique. The operation takes 3 to 4 hours depending on the number of grafts. It’s a microsurgery that demands more care due to the delicate area and the structure of the face, although it’s supposed to heal faster than other regions.
Moustache Transplant Operation
The grafts are collected using a micro motor in the non-scar FUE technique method. 300 to 600 grafts is the average number unless the individual has no moustache, then we would need about 600-800 to get the desired result.
These grafts must be placed with adequate frequency and right angles and with a degree of 35-40 on the side of the lips to ensure a natural appearance, unlike many rooted grafts.
Before the Moustache Operation
The procedure starts with the medical examination as for all transplant operations. There are two main aspects to consider, namely the need for the recipient zone and the number of grafts to be obtained.

- People with a beard that is inconsistent.
- People who want to change their beard’s shape.

Furthermore, people whose beard structure is poor may have Beard Transplant, not only those who do not have beard due to hereditary disease. Therefore, Beard Transplant can be done if the hair follicles are deficient.
Beard transplant can only be done after the doctor’s examination and approval in some diseases such as heart disease, blood pressure, diabetes, and hepatitis.
If hair doesn’t grow in the face: You can see the lack of hair growth in one part of the face or the whole face. A factor that determines beard growth is the male testosterone hormone, also known as DHY. Such hormones, which begin with puberty and develop until 20-21, make the hair grow and densify. The beard may not grow if these hormones are lacking.
Trichorrhexis: Not only the beard but all of the body’s hair can drop off due to a skin disease. Tricorrhexis can cause voids in small or the whole beard in various areas of the beard. Stress, frustration, fear, depression, disappointment, and psychological issues lead to loss of hair. When the doctor’s recommended drugs did not treat these problems, the most effective way is Beard Transplant
Scars Of Wounds And Burns: There may be injuries and burns on the face after several accidents, and hair follicles may die in these areas, preventing the beard’s growth. You can get rid of these scars by doing Beard Transplant and get your beard back.
Intensity Or Reshape The Beard: Many beards may be light or without form. In such situations, it is possible to perform a Beard Transplant without compromising the natural appearance to increase the beard’s size or change its shape.
Before the operation, your doctor will examine the beard to determine whether you are appropriate for the Beard Transplant. You should not shave your beard before the surgery so that your doctor can see the healthy growth of your beard. During operation, blood tests are also performed to ensure your health. Before you do the process, there are a few critical things to consider:
- A week before the treatment, aspirin, vitamins and blood transfusions should be avoided.
- Alcohol and cigarettes should be avoided a week before surgery.
- A small shirt should be worn, which you can easily take off on the day of service.
- Before the treatment, you must tell your doctor about all the medications you are using.
- Beard Transplantation is very sensitive as it is performed in the facial area. Therefore, it is very crucial to follow your doctor’s tips.
Process of Beard Transplant
Post-Surgery Instructions After Beard Transplant
Modern Beard Transplant technology enables quick and efficient results to be achieved. The patient does not have to stay in the hospital following the procedure. Because of blood clotting, patients will have red spots in the ducts, but this is temporary. Ten days are enough to close tubes and adjust follicles. We will wash your face on the third day of operation in the hospital. And, you will see the transplanted hair after washing. It is normal to see substantial beard loss on the second week of the operation. This is a totally natural process, and the beard is renovated and lasts for a long time after a short period of loss. The beard takes approximately 7-10 months to make its final form with proper care.
