Treatment Overview
The Beard Transplant with Custom Pattern & Style, also known as the Designer Beard Transplant, is an advanced aesthetic hair restoration procedure that focuses on artistic beard shaping and styling tailored to each individual’s facial structure and personal preference.
Using Korea’s world-renowned DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) or FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) techniques, surgeons design and implant hair follicles with precision to create a perfectly sculpted, balanced beard style — whether sharp, modern, or naturally rugged.
This procedure combines medical accuracy with aesthetic artistry, delivering a designer beard that complements jawline, cheek contours, and overall facial symmetry.
Purpose & Benefits
The purpose of this treatment is to give patients complete control over their beard pattern, density, and shape, ensuring a unique, personalized style that fits their identity and grooming preferences.
Key benefits include:
- Fully customized beard shape and density
- Symmetrical, well-defined jawline enhancement
- Natural-looking direction, texture, and flow
- Minimal scarring and fast recovery
- Permanent results that can be trimmed or styled freely
Ideal Candidates
This procedure is ideal for:
- Men seeking a specific beard design (goatee, full beard, anchor, or fade-blended style)
- Those wanting to enhance or reshape their existing facial hair pattern
- Individuals with uneven, thin, or patchy beard growth
- Patients who value aesthetic precision and facial design balance
- Anyone desiring a signature, stylish beard look tailored to their personality
Possible Risks & Complications
Designer Beard Transplant in Korea is extremely safe when performed by skilled surgeons. Temporary side effects may include:
- Mild redness or swelling around the treated area
- Slight tenderness for 1–2 days
- Minor scabbing, which heals naturally within a week
Korean clinics use PRP therapy, cooling systems, and laser-assisted recovery to ensure minimal downtime and flawless healing.
Techniques & Technology Used
Korean surgeons combine precision engineering and aesthetic design principles to create natural, stylish results.
Key technologies include:
- Choi Implanter Pens (DHI) for perfect control of graft angle, depth, and density
- Micromotor FUE Extraction Tools for clean donor harvesting with no visible scars
- 3D Facial Design Software for pre-procedure beard shape visualization
- PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Therapy for enhanced graft survival and faster healing
- Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) for regenerative scalp and facial recovery
These technologies ensure the final result matches both the style and personality of each patient.
Treatment Process in Korea
Step 1 – Consultation & Style Design:
A personalized consultation with a hair transplant specialist and aesthetic designer to select beard style, density, and pattern. A 3D simulation helps visualize the final look.
Step 2 – Donor Extraction:
Healthy follicles are gently extracted from the back of the scalp or under the chin using micro FUE techniques.
Step 3 – Implantation:
Using DHI implanter pens, grafts are placed at precise angles and depths to form the selected beard design — ensuring smooth density and natural direction.
Step 4 – PRP or Regenerative Therapy:
Growth factors are applied to strengthen new follicles and reduce post-procedure redness or swelling.
The procedure typically takes 4–6 hours, depending on the complexity and density of the design.
Recovery & After-Care
Recovery from a Designer Beard Transplant is fast, with minimal downtime. Most patients return to daily activities within 1–2 days.
After-care guidelines:
- Avoid washing or touching the area for 48 hours
- Use mild cleanser after 3 days as directed
- Avoid shaving or trimming for 2 weeks
- Keep the face clean and avoid direct sunlight or heat for 7 days
- Attend follow-up PRP or laser sessions for optimal growth
Redness fades within a few days, and transplanted hair begins to grow naturally soon after healing.
Results & Longevity
Initial results appear within 2–3 months, with full beard density visible after 9–12 months.
The new beard is permanent, allowing for trimming, shaping, and styling like natural hair.
Korean clinics achieve exceptional aesthetic results by aligning graft placement with jawline structure, cheek symmetry, and facial proportions.
