What does beard grafting consist of? 

After knowing how much a beard transplant costs in Spain, we can feel a certain curiosity about this service. Of course, we must know in good hands what the beard implant consists of, beyond the good results that this intervention provides.

Beard and mustache grafting with the FUE technique is defined as a outpatient, minimally invasive intervention that does not require general anesthesia. Only local anesthesia is applied, so that the patient at the end can return home normally. Of course, always taking into account the instructions provided by the medical team.

The surgical procedure consists of several phases, which cover a total of approximately 5 hours. 

Shaving the donor area

Once the design of the beard has been agreed with the medical team, the first thing that is carried out is the shaving of the donor area. In the beard implant, a small area of ​​the lower part of the neck is shaved from where the follicles to be implanted will be extracted.

Application of anesthesia

For the correct execution of the beard and mustache implant, local anesthesia is applied both in the extraction area and in the beard. This is usually the most uncomfortable part of the surgery and, therefore, in Hospital Capilar we have an exclusive pre-anesthesia service with which we managed to considerably reduce the pain of the anesthesia injection.

Follicular unit extraction

Once the entire area is anesthetized, the professionals proceed to extract the follicular units necessary to cover the area. This is done with a punch with micromotor with which they are extracted one by one.

Making the incisions

The surgeon in charge of the intervention makes the incisions in the beard, respecting the previously agreed design at all times. The follicular units from which the new hair will grow will be implanted in them.

Also another of the ways in which beard and mustache transplantation can be performed is with the technique DHI. In these cases, the incisions and the implant are given at the same time thanks to the use of what is known as an implanter.

Implantation of follicular units

The beard graft with the FUE technique ends with the implantation of the follicles. After this, start the beard graft postoperative where they will have to comply with all medical indications to avoid complications in the recovery process.
