Hi there, glad to hear that you have decided to go for a transplant to dense up your beard. Your beard does look quite good, to begin with, just some minor patchy areas to touch up. With regards to your break up concern, with active infection on-going, it will not be good for the transplant procedure. The survival of transplant over those infected areas might be compromised and the infection might even get worse. However, you still have time to address this. Usually, some topical and oral antibiotic will do the job. For a start, it would be best that you could visit any certified doctor in your community to get a thorough consultation. Hope it helps, cheers.

Hi there, glad to hear that you have been proactively treating your thinning area with minoxidil and finasteride. With regards to your thinning concern, yes hair transplant would be one of the options to restore its density, but do give non-surgical hair restoration methods a chance in view of your young age. Less invasive procedures that you could explore include LLLT, Fotona scalp laser, microneedling and scalp mesotherapies For a start, it would be best that you could visit any certified doctor in your community to get a thorough consultation. Hope it helps, cheers.

Hi there, from the picture shared, your lips do look more voluptuous after 2 syringes of filler. The result looks great from the picture and moderation is always the key to beauty. However, if you are looking for more, options that you could explore include: fat transfer and implant, each have its pros and cons. It’s a bit difficult to give an exact opinion based on the close-up photo as face to face consultation is always the best. It would be best that you could visit any certified doctor in your community to get a thorough consultation. Hope it helps, cheers.
