How many hair grafts are needed for a beard and mustache transplant?

Most beard and mustache transplants primarily use scalp hair for the procedure. If you have researched hair transplantation before, you may know that before using scalp hair for transplantation, the doctor must first assess each patient's type of hair loss and determine the appropriate number of grafts. The same applies to beard and mustache transplantation. The doctor will conduct an assessment before the procedure. On average, beard and mustache transplantation uses about 2,000 grafts.

Of course, hair transplantation uses more grafts than beard and mustache transplantation, but it also depends on the extent of each person's hair loss.

First, it is important to distinguish that the number of grafts required for a mustache transplant and a beard transplant is different. For the mustache, approximately 500 grafts are used. There are several types of beard transplants, such as:

- Cheek beard: approximately 750 grafts per side

- Goatee: approximately 600 grafts

A beard transplant generally requires more grafts than a mustache transplant. The number of grafts depends on the size of the area to be transplanted.

If you are interested in a mustache transplant, you can schedule a consultation with the doctor for an evaluation and a personalized treatment plan.
