Beard transplant in Turkey

Beard transplant in Turkey is a safe, minimally invasive procedure that is chosen by men from many countries. The surgeons managed to achieve good results. Over 99% of patients are satisfied with the results of the operation.

A beard is not only an element of male style, but also a symbol of strength, confidence, and charisma. Many men dream of having a thick beard that will highlight their individuality and attractiveness.

Hair in the beard area does not always grow uniformly. The reasons for the appearance of bald spots on the face include genetic characteristics, hormonal disorders, or injuries. In these cases, plastic surgeons in Turkey will come to the rescue. They will restore or create the desired beard shape using hair transplants taken from donor areas.

Turkey is a leading country in the field of aesthetic medicine, where doctors were among the first in the world to perform hair transplants.

1. Plastic surgeons in Turkey are qualified specialists with extensive experience. They use advanced technologies and modern equipment for hair transplantation in all areas: on the head, in the eyebrows, mustache, sideburns, and beard. It is no coincidence that movie stars, sports stars, politicians, and members of the royal families of some Arab countries turn to them. Doctors in Turkey are pioneers in introducing advanced beard transplant techniques.
2. Leading Turkish plastic surgery centers have the prestigious international JCI accreditation, which guarantees compliance with high international standards.
3. Many hospitals in Turkey provide their patients with a lifetime guarantee after beard implants.
4. Affordable price. A similar beard transplant performed in Western European countries costs patients 2-3 times more than in Turkey. It is worth noting that surgeons in Turkey use the same methods for beard transplantation as their Western colleagues and demonstrate high results.
5. Moreover, Turkey is a beautiful tourist country, which is worth visiting to enjoy the warm climate, hospitality, and ancient culture. Many patients appreciated the possibility of simultaneously improving their appearance while relaxing in picturesque places in Turkey.

There are two main beard implants methods that leave no visible marks and are predominantly used in Turkey:

• seamless method – FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction);
• direct transplant method – DHI (Direct Hair Implantation).

What both methods have in common is that the doctor collects hairs from the back of the head or another part of the head into microscopic groups (grafts) and transplants them into the area of the hairline on the face. In this way, the doctor fills in uneven hair areas.

The doctor will decide which method is right for you after assessing the level of alopecia in the facial area. Beard transplantation in Turkey is performed under local anesthesia for 4-6 hours. According to patient reviews, they did not experience significant discomfort: they could read and watch TV.

The surgeon, using a special hand-held device, removes follicles from the donor area and forms grafts from them. These are small bundles that are stored for some time in a special solution until implantation. The doctor performs the implantation through tiny punctures, creating a natural beard. This is an ideal method if you need to transplant a large number of grafts. For example, if a man has virtually no hair in the beard area.

The classic FUE method in Istanbul clinics is most often performed using an improved method, Sapphire FUE. This is a jewelry procedure that is performed with an ultra-thin scalpel with a sapphire tip. Patients note that after this procedure there are no scars or infections, and the hair quickly takes root.

Surgeons at leading Turkish clinics often complement FUE beard transplant surgery with a course of PRP therapy and injections of platelet-rich plasma from the patient. Thus, the transplanted hair takes root faster, is thicker, and has a beautiful shine.

The peculiarity of this method is that the doctor implants follicles into the skin without an intermediate step using a special tool, the Choi Pen implanter. The doctor precisely controls the angle and depth of implantation of hair follicles without damaging the hair follicles. In addition, the Choi Pen device allows to administer an anesthetic during the hair implantation process, without additional injections.

Hair transplant in Turkey using the DHI method is faster than FUE and allows to achieve the most natural-looking beard. It is used for revision surgeries, as well as if it is necessary to change the shape of the beard or add density to it.

There are no serious contraindications for beard implants. Doctors in Turkey do not recommend surgery for patients who are allergic to anesthesia, have diabetes, or have blood clotting disorders. In case of inflammatory processes in the body, you will have to wait to make beard transplantation in Turkey until the condition normalizes.

Young people under 20 years old should not undergo this procedure: before this age, the beard area may change.

In Turkey, plastic surgeons prefer to collect follicles from the occipital or lateral areas of the head.

This is explained by the characteristics of the hair: in this area, the hair corresponds most closely to the facial area. Thanks to this, the hair does not fall out and looks natural. In rare cases, if the patient does not have enough donor material at the back of the head, the doctor can transplant hair from other parts of the body: chest, abdomen, or even legs.

It is important that the hair is similar in color, texture, and thickness to the beard and belongs to the patient himself. In this case, it is possible to guarantee the engraftment of the donor material and get a good result of a beard transplant in Turkey.

To plan the procedure perfectly, the doctor needs photographs of the face and donor areas of the head. They will be transmitted by coordinators of Experts Medical who collaborate directly with doctors. Thanks to this, during an online consultation, the doctor will offer the optimal plan for creating a natural hairline that will be in harmony with your face shape.

A plastic surgeon in Turkey will calculate the required number of follicles for a beard transplant and select the best method in your case for a permanent result. You will also find out the preliminary price of a beard transplant in Turkey and what tests it is advisable to take at home.

To ensure that the procedure goes without complications, doctors recommend stopping taking anticoagulants, smoking, and drinking alcohol 2-3 weeks in advance.

Immediately after the procedure, the doctor applies a special healing gel, which cannot be washed off for several days. It is also not recommended to expose your face to sunlight. After a week, the implanted area will return to its natural appearance, but you will notice some hair loss. This is a natural process and you should not be afraid of it.

Plastic surgeons in Turkey recommend postponing shaving after transplanting a mustache, sideburn, or beard. It is vital that the hair grows in and is not damaged by the razor, which can cause irritation, inflammation, or even infection. At first, you will have to trim your beard with a clipper with an attachment or carefully use scissors. When it will be possible to shave, the surgeon will decide after assessing the survival rate of the hair. Usually, you have to wait until the grafts fall off and your hair begins to grow. This may take from 2-3 weeks to 2 months. In the clinic, they will tell you in detail how to shave and what gel or foam to use so as not to damage the hair follicles.

The first visible results of beard implants in Turkey will be in 6-8 weeks. Gradually, your beard will become thicker and your face more masculine and sexy. You can admire a thick beard after 8-12 months. The exact period depends on the individual characteristics of the organism.

Plastic surgery centers in Turkey offer affordable prices for beard transplants, which are several times lower than in Europe. The average cost of a beard transplant in Turkey can range around $3,000. It depends on key factors:

1. The chosen method: in Turkish clinics, the price of a beard transplant using the DHI method is slightly higher than the FUE method.
2. Number of transplanted grafts.
3. Clinic level: the price of a beard transplant in leading plastic surgery centers in Turkey will be higher than in others.
4. Additional procedures for hair treatment: stem cell injections or PRP therapy.

Leading clinics often offer patients “All-inclusive” packages, which will allow for additional savings. They usually include all necessary medical and non-medical services. For example, in addition to the procedure itself and the cost of medications, the package may include hotel accommodation, transfer, translation services, care products, and post-operation support for a year.

Experts Medical receives the best package options through partnerships with clinics. Therefore, patients have a unique opportunity to undergo beard transplantation from leading experts in Turkey at attractive prices.
