Healing Process After Beard Transplant

The success of a beard transplant is directly related not only to the procedure itself but also to proper post-operative care and a patient recovery process. Knowing what to expect during this process reduces your anxiety and ensures the best results. As a health tourism agency, AVO Clinic is with you every step of the way. We not only connect you with Türkiye’s top specialists, but also ensure the most comfortable recovery with our post-operative follow-up and consulting services.

Beard Transplant Recovery Schedule: Weekly Expectations

While the healing process varies from person to person, it generally follows the following timeline.

First 24-72 Hours: Sensitive Period

It is normal to experience mild tenderness and redness in the transplanted area immediately following the procedure. It is very important to rest and protect the transplanted area from any contact during this period. Patients can usually return to their normal daily activities within a few days.

First Week: Scabbing and First Wash

In the first few weeks after the procedure, mild scabbing and redness may occur. This is a natural part of recovery. The clinic you receive services from through AVO Clinic will explain the specific washing procedure in detail. These scabs usually fall out on their own within 7-10 days with proper care.

2-4 Weeks: Shock Loss Process

The transplanted beards may fall out approximately 2-3 weeks after the procedure. While this phenomenon, called “shock loss,” can be concerning for patients, it is a completely normal process and indicates that the hair follicles are adapting to their new location. Your roots are safe.

3-6 Months: New Beard Growth

After shock loss, a period of patience begins. Your permanent beard will typically begin to grow gradually after 3-6 months. The hairs, which initially appear thin and weak, will strengthen and thicken over time.

12-18 Months: Final and Fuller Look

The full results of a beard transplant will be seen within 12-18 months. By the end of this period, your beard will have reached its final state, achieving a natural, fuller, and aesthetically pleasing appearance.
