The growth of a man’s beard is directly proportional to the male hormone secreted in his body. Every individual has a unique pattern of beard growth which is mostly dependent on the genetics of a man. There are men with thick beard growth while some have fine brown hair that grows on their faces. Men with finer beards often have a want for a thicker beard which can now be achieved by getting a beard Transplantation. These are the best candidates for getting their beard transplanted. 

Beard transplants can be performed following two procedures. Both procedures have their own sets of benefits and are carried forward once a person gets a heads-up from a doctor. Fashion trends keep on changing in India and lately having a heavy beard is a newbie that every man wants to achieve. This makes Beard Transplant a trending cosmetic surgery in India.

1. What is a Beard Transplant? 

There are a lot of men out there who face hard times growing out of their beards. For some, it can be as easy as avoiding a razor while letting your beard grow naturally but for some, it can be a difficult task. Some men do not get a uniform beard on their face which ends up making them look patchy. Getting beard transplants is gaining popularity and can be looked at as the most common cosmetic procedure. The process of a beard transplant is easy to understand where the hair follicles of a person are harvested from a suitable donor area. The hair follicles are then placed carefully on the face of the person which then naturally starts growing thicker. ​

What is the Science behind beard Transplantation?

The concept of a Beard Transplant in Delhi requires hair to be taken from one part of the body (called as donor area) which is then transplanted to the jawline of a person. The process of placing the follicles depends on the growth of a person and where he wants his hair to be uniform. Once the follicles are placed on the face of a person, the hair is then allowed to grow naturally which takes its course of time. The hair follicles are placed in the slots created by a doctor on the face of a person which then allows hair follicles to grow back. 

2. Who needs a beard transplant and what’s the procedure like?

A good candidate for a beard transplant

You are a good candidate for beard transplant if:

1. You have thin and uneven patches of hair growing in the beard
2. You have scars on your face and a beard can act as a great addition to your face making the face look better while hiding the scars at the same time. 

Process of Beard Plantation:

Here are the steps taken by doctors to carry out the process of Hair Transplantation. 

1. Harvesting: Any process opted for Hair Plantation requires the doctor to take the follicles from the back of the head which is referred to as harvesting. Trimming gives doctors a clear view of the hair follicles of a person which makes the process of harvesting a much easier one. 

2. Implantation: The harvesting then requires these follicles to be implanted in the required area. The process is carried out by giving local anesthesia to the patient. The hair is then implanted into the face of a person which can be a time-consuming process. This process depicts how your beard is going to grow once a person has recovered. 

3. Process of Recovery: The recovery time of this process is not elongated at all and usually takes a day. A person may feel the development of tiny crusts around the hair follicle which usually flakes off within a day or two. It is very important to know that the transplanted hair follicles fall out from the face within 2 to 3 weeks after which the new hair starts growing out in the same place.

3. Benefits of a beard transplant? 

Here are some of the benefits of beard transplantation that one should consider before getting one done.

1. It is a safe surgical procedure and is known to show results 99% of the time. There is no ambiguity in getting beard transplantation done. 
2. It is a painless procedure: The process is almost painless and does not require a patient to think through based on how painful the process is going to be. 
3. The procedure gives permanent results and is not something a person has to get done annually. It is a one-time process as long as the person is happy with the density of his beard
4. The procedure is done using local anesthesia which does not make it a major surgical procedure. 
5. The hair transplanted does not look transplanted and gives a natural look to a person.
6. A person can grow his beard naturally and go with the natural process of shaving the beard and then allowing the beard to grow naturally. The grown beard ends up looking thicker and uniform in comparison to the patchy beard.
7. Beard Transplant enables a person to choose his beard style and is independent of the density of the beard as that is no more a clause. The process of implantation is carried out based on the style a person opts for. The doctor then carries out the implantation based on what a person likes which later determines the course of beard growth. 
8. The process of beard transplantation in Delhi does not take a lot of time to recover and is a straightforward process of gaining a beard.  
9. The process of a beard transplant does not leave any scarring behind and that is considered to be one of the biggest pros of the procedure altogether. 

4. How much time does a beard transplant take? Is it permanent? 

The full beard transplantation requires a timeline of 8 hours to complete.

After the Transplantation is completed, there are a few more weeks after which a patient can expect full beard growth on his face. 

The transplanted hair starts falling out after 15 to 30 days post-surgery. This is considered to be good news as new follicles are getting ready. The process takes an average of 90 days until you can see your beard growing in full growth. You can expect your beard to get full coverage six to ten months after the surgery. 

The process of Hair transplantation is permanent as long as a person is happy with the density of his beard. The result of the beard transplant depends on the number of grafts chosen by a person before the procedure. More grafts will result in a denser beard. The procedure can be termed as permanent. If a person wishes to increase the density of his beard post-procedure, he can go for another sitting of the procedure. A decent time frame should be allowed between the two procedures so that a person can view the results of the first procedure completely before deciding to go for a second one.  

5. How to find a qualified provider? 

Getting the procedure done requires a person to look for a service provider that proves the best quality while being 100% effective at the same time. It is important to ensure that you are working with the right doctor. Here are some things that a patient needs to ensure before getting a procedure done by a certain surgeon. 

1. Years of experience that the provider holds in the same procedure
2. Types of procedures that a surgeon has performed in years of experience 
3. Type of quality of work that the surgeon is doing
