How to make a beard transplant more natural in appearance? 5 months post op. (photos)

If you are considering surgery, it is best to have a consultation with a doctor in person.  Discuss your issues with your doctor.

Asian hair can be more difficult to make look "natural" due to the thickness of the hair shafts; Asian hair is in general very coarse even when it comes to single hair grafts so there is a chance for a more "pluggy" appearance at the edges  of a transplant. In your case, the edges or boarders that you have circles are a little harsh which makes it look more obvious. 5 months is early to determine if the results are satisfactory. Letting the hairs grow out rather than shaving closely may soften the appearance of the edges. Also SMP (Scalp Micropigmentation - a highly special tattoo process) may also help you achieve softer borders. I don't recommend laser at this point because it's not meant for spot treatment of hair.

You will need to have a close look at the artistic ability of the doctor you choose to have beard hair transplant. You would need a repair to make sure the design is something you are happy with and put you trust in someone to place recipient sites correctly to avoid a "transplanted" appearance.
