A beard transplant is a safe, permanent procedure that restores facial hair by transplanting your own healthy follicles—typically from the back of your scalp—into patchy or sparse beard areas. Popular among men who experience genetic hair loss, scarring, or patchy beards, this solution is increasingly in demand worldwide.

Thousands of international patients now travel to Turkey to achieve a fuller, well-defined beard at a fraction of the cost compared to the UK or US—without compromising on quality.

At Sanamentum, our focus is not just on medical excellence, but on providing a smooth and satisfying experience from consultation to recovery.

Beard Transplant Operation in Turkey

Beard transplant or beard growth treatment in Turkey is very advantageous, especially for foreign visitors. It is a known fact that beard transplant cost is very high in European countries, just like other medical operations. That is why every year thousands of foreign patients prefer Turkey for their medical operations.

Mens’ facial hair is the most apparent and the first noticed feature on the face, therefore people with no sideburn beard or with bald spot in beard under chin consider getting the treatment they need in Turkey. Turkey’s low living costs make it an attractive destination for foreign visitors. This way, they can both enjoy their time in İstanbul and have their high-quality operation with a low beard transplant price. Usually, beard and hair transplant patients stay around 3-4 days in Istanbul and they don’t have to stay at the hospital after surgery. The surgery itself takes somewhere between 5 and 8 hours, depending on the amount of hair follicles that are implanted.

Types of Beard Transplant Technique

Two primary techniques are used for facial hair restoration in Turkey: FUE and DHI. Both yield natural, permanent results when performed by experienced professionals.

FUE Method Explained

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is the most commonly used method in Turkey. It involves:

  • Harvesting individual hair grafts using a micro punch tool

  • Creating micro-incisions in the beard area

  • Carefully placing the follicles to match your natural beard design and angle

Benefits include:

  • No visible scarring

  • Natural-looking hairline and beard density

  • Minimal pain and downtime

FUE beard transplant Turkey is especially suitable for those with patchy beards or who need moderate to full facial coverage.

DHI Method (Choi Implanters)

DHI hair transplantation, unlike other traditional hair transplantation methods, is a method in which hair follicles are placed directly in the area to be transplanted by using special Choi Implanters. Healthy hair follicles are carefully removed with a micromotor device, which is a highly advanced technological tool. New hair follicles are placed in accordance with the direction of growth of facial hair, thus providing a much more natural appearance.

Thanks to the DHI method, which does not require difficult procedures such as opening channels in the bald area, the number of sessions required for successful results is reduced. Other reasons for the DHI technique to be preferred are its short duration of treatment and its opportunity to transplant many hairs in a single session. There are no scars or marks after the procedure and the healing time is significantly shortened. Since this reduces the risk of infection in the area, the DHI method is considered one of the most reliable hair and beard transplantation methods.

Who Should Do Beard Transplantation?

In practice, anyone over 20 years of age can undergo beard transplant. The most important point here is that the person considering the operation must not be diagnosed with systematic diseases and must have enough grafts for the permanent treatment of facial hair loss. In most cases, men with patches on their sideburn beard, or men with no goatee facial hair decide on getting a beard transplant, as mens sideburn and men’s goatee beard include the most visible parts of the face.

What to Expect Before, During, and After the Procedure

Here’s a step-by-step overview of the beard transplant journey:

  1. Consultation & Planning
    Your facial structure, skin condition, and desired beard shape are assessed to design a custom plan.

  2. Donor Area Preparation
    Hair follicles are extracted from the back of your head (donor zone) under local anesthesia.

  3. Transplantation
    Follicles are implanted into the beard area using either FUE or DHI.

  4. Immediate Post-Op
    Mild redness and tiny scabs are normal. You’ll receive detailed post-op care instructions.

The procedure typically takes 5–8 hours, and you can return home after 2–3 days.
