Glossary Beard Transplant

hair follicles are moved to the face to enhance beard

A beard transplant, also known as a facial hair transplant or beard restoration, is a cosmetic procedure where hair follicles are taken from one part of the body, typically the back of the scalp, and transplanted to the beard area to create a fuller, more defined beard. This procedure is often sought by individuals who have patchy or thin facial hair due to genetics, scarring, or other factors.
