Beard hair to scalp transplant specialist clinic Lahore Pakistan 

The use of beard in transplants is applicable when a patient has severe kind of alopecia. In such cases, there isn’t enough donor area available. The most common and safest donor area is considered the occipital region which is present at the back of head. But in severe alopecia, this region cannot provide enough grafts. For such cases, follicles should be collected from other areas of the body such as beard, chest, armpits etc. Among these, using beard hair as a source of follicles has been proven most beneficial.

PROCEDURE

• The patient is directed not to shave for at least 1-2 weeks so that he grows enough follicles to be taken out.

• The  area is treated with a local anaesthetic.

• Micro-grafts of the beard follicles are taken out and preserved. This is done with extreme precision to allow minimum scarring both in the donor and receiver area.

• In the same way, some of the grafts are also taken from the occipital region if they are available.

• These grafts are then implanted in the bald areas of scalp by making pores of various sizes. These pores are then widened to adjust the  follicles in them.

• After implantation, the area is disinfected and bandage is done.

• The patient is prescribed with antibiotics for some coming days.
