People like to know more about beard transplantation, and naturally, they would look out for frequently asked questions that are appropriately answered.
Beard transplantation needs to be done professionally, and it is better to know about the procedure in advance for successful results.
Is It Safe to Transplant a Beard?
Beard transplant surgery, also referred to as facial hair transplant surgery, is indeed an advanced and also considered to be a very safe cosmetic surgery that has been suggested for men who prefer to improve upon the lack of density as well as the fullness of their beard. Seasoned plastic surgeons who are working with this procedure involve hair transplants from one’s scalp to the desired areas on the beard.
Can a person get a beard surgically implanted?
Yes. They can indeed be surgically implanted. Before the beard transplant, the doctor will no doubt evaluate one’s prevailing health condition and also study his health records. The person must be certified fit before taking up the surgery.
How long do beard implants last?
Judging by the views held by renowned cosmetic surgeons, the best results of the surgery can indeed be expected when it is conducted by a cosmetic surgeon who has rather good exposure to combining surgical skills with advanced technology. Since the hair made use of for the transplant process will be from one’s own body, the acceptability is very high, both by one’s own body and also that of loved ones. It does last for a lifetime.
What is the cost of a full beard transplant?
The cost of full beard transplantation depends upon the number of grafts to be done. The full beard transplant cost can be around Rs. 40 per graft + GST. Hence, the final figure can be known once the surgery is indeed completed. This cost is also indeed applicable for mustache hair transplant surgery.
Also, the package includes:
- Surgeon’s fee.
- Ward charges.
- Medicines that are administered during surgery.
- Consumable charges.
Exercise after Beard Transplant?
There are of course various conflicting answers online as to when a person can resume exercise (weightlifting in particular) after a beard transplant. How long to wait? Weightlifting increases blood pressure, and naturally, it is necessary to ensure that the person does not want to increase the blood pressure in one’s head but will also increase pressure to the head, causing harm to implants in the face perhaps. If it does happen so, what will happen?
When is it safe to return to exercise, especially weightlifting, after a beard transplant? Usually, most doctors recommend waiting at least 1 to 2 weeks before resuming intense exercise, and there is a good reason for this. After a transplant, the newly implanted hair follicles need time to settle in and also secure themselves in the scalp or facial skin. Weightlifting, or any form of exercise that raises one’s heart rate and blood pressure, can increase blood flow to one’s head, which might also disrupt the healing process.
If returning to weightlifting too soon, the increased blood pressure could theoretically thus lead to swelling or even cause a few grafts to dislodge, especially in the early days post-op. If a graft were to be dislodged, it could indeed result in poor growth or patchy areas where the hair does not shape properly.
In order to minimize any kind of risk to one’s transplant, it is suggested to wait the full two weeks as per the doctor’s suggestion and ease back into exercise gradually. It is always better to err with caution when it comes to something as delicate as the transplant. Give the body the required time it needs to heal to ensure the best results long-term.
Conclusion
Beard transplantation is thus a way out for better looks, but caution must be applied that it is done by a well-experienced professional.
