Alternative transplantation methods
For eyebrow and beard transplantation, hair follicles are harvested from a donor area and transplanted into the eyebrow or beard region to permanently enhance hair growth in those areas.
Beard hair transplantation
Beard transplantation is an aesthetic procedure that aims to improve beard growth in men by harvesting hair follicles from a donor area, usually the scalp, and transplanting them into the beard region. This procedure is often chosen by men who want a thicker or fuller beard or to even out bald patches in the beard area. The hair follicles are precisely implanted to achieve a natural look and the transplant is performed under local anesthesia. Although temporary discomfort such as swelling or redness may occur, the final result is often only visible after a few months, when the transplanted hair has fully grown.
Eyebrow transplantation
Eyebrow transplantation is a cosmetic procedure in which hair follicles are harvested from a donor area, often the scalp, and transplanted into the eyebrow region. This procedure is often used to fill in thinning or missing eyebrows and achieve a natural-looking eyebrow shape. The hair follicles are placed in small groups, similar to natural eyebrow hairs, to achieve an aesthetically pleasing result. The transplantation is usually performed under local anesthesia and can take several hours. Temporary swelling or redness may occur after the operation and the final result is often only visible after a few months when the transplanted hair has fully grown
