Beard Transplant: what is it?
It is a surgical procedure that involves transferring the hair from the sides or back of the scalp (donor site) to the face. This is the same principle as a classical hair transplant. There are two methods that are:
- FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction): this is the most used technique. It consists in removing follicle by follicle.
- FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation): it is performed through the removal of a strip of the skin from the back of the head. This technique requires a long time of healing with risk of failure of the intervention.
