Why Consider a Facial Hair Restoration?

Whether you prefer a full, bold beard or the effortless look of a three- or five-day stubble, a beard transplant can make all the difference. For many men, sparse growth or visible gaps in their beard can lead to frustration and a knock in confidence.

This lack of confidence often extends beyond appearance, affecting social interactions and causing some to shy away from social situations altogether. A beard transplant offers a transformative solution, filling in gaps to create thick, even, and natural-looking facial hair.

After the healing phase, you’ll enjoy a beard that matches your personal style and restores your self-assurance, allowing you to face the world with confidence.

What is a Beard Transplant?

A beard transplant is a specialised hair restoration procedure focused on enhancing beard growth rather than scalp hair. Ideal for filling in sparse or patchy areas, it’s designed to create a fuller, denser, and natural-looking beard.

Using the advanced sapphire technique, follicular units are carefully extracted from the donor area at the back of the head and transplanted into the patchy regions of the beard. Unlike temporary solutions, a beard transplant offers permanent results.

Once transplanted, the donor hairs integrate seamlessly with the recipient area, connecting with the supply cells to grow naturally over time. This ensures your beard looks and feels authentic, giving you the confidence to embrace your new look.

What Happens Before the Procedure?

Before your beard transplant in Turkey, you’ll undergo a thorough consultation and detailed examinations to ensure the best possible results. At Elithair, we leave nothing to chance, making sure every step is tailored to your individual needs.

Our exclusive Pre-Test System allows our specialists to determine the most effective technique for your minimally invasive procedure. We also assess your hair quality and identify the underlying causes of weak beard growth, providing a personalised solution designed to deliver the look you desire.

To make your experience as comfortable as possible, Elithair uses the innovative Sleep-Deep Method, ensuring a completely pain-free procedure. With us, you can rest easy knowing you’re in expert hands.

The Procedure in Detail

Your beard transplant in Turkey is meticulously designed for optimal results, with the process carried out in four perfectly coordinated steps:

1. Preparation with NEO FUE
2. Extraction with FUE method
3. Enrichment in nutrient solution
4. Transplantation with sapphire technique

Each step is performed by a team of specialists dedicated to delivering flawless, lasting results tailored to you.

1. Preparation

NEO FUE Preparation

At Elithair, your beard transplant journey begins with advanced preparation using the exclusive NEO FUE method, developed by Dr. Balwi. This innovative approach ensures your grafts are in optimal condition before the procedure.

You’ll receive revitalising serums ahead of your treatment, designed to nourish and strengthen your donor area. Using the included dermaroller, you’ll apply the serums to stimulate the scalp, enhancing the quality of your follicles and setting the stage for exceptional results.

2. Extraction

The extraction process is a crucial step in your beard transplant journey, carried out with precision to ensure the best results.

  1. Loosening the Grafts: The donor area, typically at the back of the head, is carefully prepared, and the follicular units (grafts) are gently loosened for extraction.
  2. Removing the Grafts: Using the advanced FUE technique, Elithair ensures each graft is individually removed with a hollow needle and micromotor.

This modern approach guarantees high-quality grafts, setting the foundation for natural, long-lasting beard growth.

3. Enrichment

Once the grafts are carefully extracted, they are placed in a specialised nutrient-rich solution designed to strengthen and revitalise each follicle. This step ensures the grafts remain in optimal condition, boosting their vitality and increasing the chances of successful, natural-looking growth.

4. Implantation

The final step of your beard transplant is the precise implantation of hair follicles using the advanced sapphire technique. This cutting-edge method ensures a high-density finish, with up to 120 grafts per cm², for a natural and full-looking beard tailored to your preferences.

Thanks to Elithair’s innovative Sleep-Deep method, the entire process is 100% painless, allowing you to relax while our specialists work to deliver exceptional results. Your journey to a thicker, more confident beard has never been more comfortable.

Follow-Up and Healing

The recovery phase after your beard transplant is vital for achieving the best results. During the first few weeks, prioritise rest and maintain a clean, hygienic environment to support healing. Following the care instructions provided by your clinic, including proper scalp care and a balanced diet, can further optimise your recovery. It’s also crucial to avoid direct sun exposure to protect the treated area.

With patience and care, you’ll begin to see your new beard take shape, with full growth typically achieved between 9 to 12 months post-procedure. Trust the process—it’s all worth it for a beard you can wear with pride.

Advantages and Risks of a Facial Hair Transplant

A beard transplant offers a transformative boost in aesthetics and self-confidence, with results that are both natural and permanent. Unlike temporary solutions, a beard transplant delivers lasting outcomes, tailored to your specific needs thanks to Elithair’s comprehensive Pre-Test System and personalised recommendations.

When it comes to hair surgery risks, complications are exceptionally rare, particularly when aftercare guidelines are followed. Improper post-operative care or excessive strain on the treated area can occasionally lead to inflammation or scarring, but these issues are entirely avoidable with the support and advice provided by your medical team.

One common side effect is the shedding effect, where implanted hairs may fall out around two weeks after the procedure. This is a normal part of the process and only affects the hair strands—not the roots. Healthy regrowth will follow, resulting in a thick, natural beard that’s here to stay.

With proper aftercare and expert guidance, your journey to a confident new look is smooth, safe, and rewarding.

Who is a Suitable Candidate?

A beard transplant is a viable solution for men of almost any age, but since beard growth continues until around 23, younger candidates may require additional assessments to evaluate growth patterns and potential delays.

Men with healthy donor areas and no underlying autoimmune conditions or contraindications are typically suitable for this minimally invasive procedure. At Elithair, we ensure that the treatment is tailored to suit all hair and skin types, providing a personalised approach for each patient.

However, a beard transplant may not be recommended for individuals with unexplained patchy facial hair, autoimmune diseases, or significant scarring in the beard area, as these factors can reduce the likelihood of successful graft growth. Additionally, those experiencing complete hair loss on the head and body may lack suitable donor areas for the procedure.

A thorough consultation and expert evaluation are key to determining your suitability and ensuring the best possible outcome for a fuller, more confident beard.
