Along with hair transplant procedures, beard and eyebrow transplant procedures have also become popular in recent years. Sometimes, due to various reasons, there may be baldness and regional shedding in the beard and eyebrows. In some cases, the number of hair roots may be genetically low. All these factors cause a serious deficiency in the person’s facial expression, and in such cases, it is possible to transplant both the beard and the beard area using appropriate methods. There are many important details to know about this process.
What is Beard and Eyebrow Transplant?
The lack of sufficient hair roots in the beard and eyebrow area on our face causes the need for transplant procedures. Beard and eyebrow transplant is the process of transferring hair roots taken from the scalp to the eyebrow and beard area. During the procedure, the transplant procedure is performed in a way that is appropriate for the person’s facial features. Candidates who are suitable for this procedure:
● Especially men prefer the transplant procedure for beards. It is suitable for candidates who have genetically sparse beards or who have scars on their beards for any reason.
● Women who have hair loss or dullness in their eyebrows often resort to eyebrow transplant.
● For both procedures, individuals must have a healthy donor area and must not have any illness that negatively affects the healing process.
Beard and Eyebrow Transplant Techniques
There are important techniques used in transplant procedures for beards and eyebrows. With the latest technological methods, beard and eyebrow transplant has become much easier. Moreover, the results obtained are extremely natural thanks to these methods. The methods commonly used for eyebrow and beard transplant are as follows:
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) Method
The FUE method is preferred not only in hair transplant but also in transplant procedures for beards and eyebrows. In this method, the hair follicles, usually located in the nape area, are taken one by one and transferred to the area to be transplanted. The most important advantage of the method is that it leaves minimal scars and provides a natural appearance.
DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) Method
The DHI method works on the principle of directly transplanting the hair follicles collected with the help of a special pen to the beard and eyebrow area. Since it provides a more controlled transplant opportunity, it is especially suitable for sensitive areas such as eyebrows.
Stem Cell Supported Techniques
In stem cell supported techniques, stem cell treatment is applied together with beard and eyebrow transplant to both increase the effect of the transplant process and accelerate tissue regeneration. In this method, stem cell injection is applied to the hair follicles taken for transplant, thus ensuring that the grafts are much stronger.
Manual Transplant Techniques
In the manual transplant technique, as the name suggests, hair follicles are manually transplanted into channels opened with the help of blades and needles. It can be preferred in areas such as eyebrows because it provides more control, but the process will take much longer.
Laser Supported Techniques
In the laser-supported eyebrow and beard procedure, the collected hair follicles are placed into channels opened with the help of laser. In this method, since there is minimal trauma in the transplanted area, rapid recovery is achieved.
The most suitable technique for beard and eyebrow transplant may vary depending on the individual’s needs and the donor area. Your specialist will be able to determine the most suitable technique for you after the necessary examination.
