Beard Transplants

Beard growth can impact your self-confidence, image and appearance which is why mustache, facial and beard transplants have become so popular. At MAXIM Hair Restoration, we specialize in techniques such as FUE and FUT to ensure that your beard looks full and natural.

Eyebrow Transplants

Are your eyebrows thinning out as you age? An eyebrow transplant can help you replace lost eyebrow hair to look younger.  Improve your confidence and achieve a natural look with a simple hair graft containing two to fifteen hair follicles. An eyebrow transplant is a relatively low-cost procedure that can make a big difference.

Success Rates

A facial hair transplant is a delicate procedure. It's not a process just any surgeon can perform. Fortunately, our experts have a success rate of 90% to 95% for both procedures. Be sure to ask your physician what to expect, and follow all their instructions for recovery.

Recovery Times

It takes roughly 7 to 14 days to recover from both a beard transplant procedure and an eyebrow transplant. Remember that it's normal for the transplanted hair to fall out in a few months. It then regrows and remains! We may also employ Collagen Induction Therapy or Fat Grafting to help you recover faster.

Surgical Transplant Methods

We can accomplish beard transplants and eyebrow transplants using FUT or FUE. These procedures require a deft hand and a great deal of skill over and beyond what it takes to perform a hair transplant procedure. Fortunately, our facial hair transplant doctors are some of the best in the business.

Non-Surgical Transplant Methods

Micropigmentation or microblading can help restore your eyebrows without surgery. Either can fill out your eyebrows with tiny tattoos that are indistinguishable from natural hair. While these methods aren't helpful for beard transplants, they are an option you can explore if you have thinning eyebrows.

Permanent & Natural Results

Experience the long-term results of our beard transplant procedures and say goodbye to worries about thinning or hair loss. Our surgical techniques are designed to provide lasting outcomes, giving you a lifetime of confidence and improved density. Embrace a future with a fuller beard that accentuates your jawline or a powerful mustache that exudes more masculinity. 

Proven Methods & Techniques

Our skilled hair transplant doctors and clinicians specialize in techniques such as FUT, FUE, Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), Autologous Conditioned Plasma (ACP), cellular micrografting and other procedures. They will customize your beard transplant based on your goals, needs, health conditions, scalp elasticity, hair density, and the quality and condition of your donor and recipient areas. We are committed to using cutting-edge hair transplant technologies and techniques to ensure that you receive the highest standard of care in the hair transplant industry. 

Expert Team of Doctors

MAXIM Hair Restoration has a team of hair transplant doctors and clinicians specializing in mustache, facial and beard transplant techniques.

Choose MAXIM Hair Restoration for your mustache and beard hair transplant. You will not regret it.

You can choose between conventional, multi-year financing or 0% interest, 12-month plans. We believe that financial constraints should not hinder your ability to  achieve your dream of more facial hair and a mustache or beard hair transplant. Contact us to discuss costs and create a program that suits your needs and budget. Our hair restoration consultant will go over financing options during your complimentary consultation.

frequently asked questions

The two techniques used for beard transplants are Follicular Unit Excision (FUE) and Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT). These specialized procedures involve extracting hair follicles from the donor area and carefully implanting them in the desired areas of the face. Through this process, facial hair density and fullness can be enhanced.

Understanding the recovery and timeline after a beard transplant is crucial. Fortunately, the recovery period is relatively short. Most patients can expect to return to work and resume their activities within one week. It's normal to experience swelling, redness, and discomfort during the days following your beard transplant; however, these symptoms should improve within one week. Our doctor/clinician and team will be in touch with you throughout your recovery period. 

Complete healing typically takes around 2 to 3 weeks. It is important to diligently follow your doctor or clinician’s pre and post-operative care instructions during this time for optimal results.

Patience is key when it comes to beard transplants. It's normal for the transplanted hair to fall out in the weeks following the process. There's no need to worry. This is a phase referred to as "shock loss."

Typically, you may begin noticing hair growth within 3 to 4 months and significant results after 6 to 9 months. However, the complete transformation usually occurs between 12 and 18 months after the surgery. 

If you're aiming for a more impressive beard, hang in there and give it some time. The wait will definitely be worth it! Moreover, if you are satisfied with the results and want more density, you can have an additional procedure done as long as you have adequate donor area. However, the cost of additional procedures is not included in the first procedure unless it is corrective in nature.

Proper maintenance and care of your transplanted beard are crucial. Here are some expert tips on transplant beard maintenance:

  • Invest in high-quality grooming products like non-synthetic beard oil, balm, or butter. These products will help keep your beard soft, healthy, and easy to manage.
  • Ensure hygiene by using a sulfate-free beard wash and regularly combing or brushing your beard. This helps prevent tangles and knots. 
  • Regularly trim your beard according to your desired shape and length. 
  • Use topical and oral products/supplements to preserve existing hair on the scalp and other parts of the body. 

Consider grooming and styling services at a barbershop. It's essential to avoid mistakes when caring for your beard, such as washing using harsh chemicals or neglecting proper maintenance.

You can enjoy the benefits of a beard transplant for a lifetime with care and consistency. You can always have an additional procedure for greater density, add a mustache, or get more.

There isn't an age that is necessarily considered the best. However, candidates need to have well-established and mature hair patterns. Typically, individuals in their mid-20s or older are recommended for this procedure. It is preferred that your hair loss is stable.

Fortunately, thanks to local anesthesia, most patients experience minimal pain or discomfort during the procedure. The face is more sensitive than the scalp and some other parts of the body. While some discomfort, swelling, or redness may occur during recovery, these symptoms generally fade within a few days.

MAXIM offers hair transplant techniques that provide outstanding results. Our team consists of experienced doctors and surgeons who specialize in this field. With our focus on hair transplant procedures, we have perfected the Beard Hair Transplant process with our professional clinical environment and dedicated technicians. We only perform one hair transplant procedure at a time and our doctors/clinicians are hands-on and fully involved unlike many other clinics. We can also perform MEGA sessions up to and exceeding 4,000 grafts which would give you greater density. Our doctors/clinicians also have the ability to extract donor area not just from the scalp but other parts of the body as well in case you have limited donor hair.

Although the price per graft is higher than hair transplants for the scalp, our beard transplant procedures are affordable with 0% financing options. Don't wait longer—schedule a complimentary consultation with our knowledgeable team today, and let us give you the facial hair you've always wanted.

Local anesthesia is used for this procedure. The best part is that it can be completed in one day. You can even enjoy your book, TV show, or nap while getting treated! Converse with our doctor/clinician and team during your procedure, and relax while we give you new, natural facial hair.

It is imperative to communicate your expectations with your MAXIM doctor/clinician from the onset. We want to ensure that we meet your facial hair and beard/mustache goals to the best of our abilities. As experts in the field, MAXIM doctors/clinicians can try to anticipate and identify any issues and provide suggestions for solutions, including procedures or treatments. Pre and post-operative care is as important as the procedure itself. You are entitled to as many follow-up visits as you’d like. 

Remember that it typically takes 12 to 18 months to see the outcome of a transplant. Patience is key as you allow your beard enough time to grow and progress effectively.

The vast majority of MAXIM Hair Restoration locations offer facial, mustache and beard hair transplants including New York City, New Jersey, Long Island, Albany (NY), Northern Virginia, Charlotte, Austin, Dallas, Ft. Worth, Houston, San Antonio (Texas), Boca Raton (Florida), Sarasota/Tampa, Puerto Rico, Phoenix (Arizona), Istanbul (Turkey), and Manila/Cebu (Philippines).
