Can a long stubble look natural after a beard transplant? (Photo)

Question

I have a mustache and hair under lip and chin (first picture). Can a long stubble like 1st picture look natural? Most patients have long beards (that usually look a bit thin) in their after pictures. About how many grafts would be needed?

Matt Tahsini, MD · Answer

Hello, and thank you for your question. Yes, stubble can look natural as long as the transplant is done correctly. Long beards that are thick and look natural require about 2500-3500 grafts. I hope this helps answer your questions. Best of luck to you.

Hello I'm Dr. Wipawan Vathananai, a co-worker of Dr. Kulakarn Amonpattana, from BHI Clinic, Bangkok, Thailand. 
Regarding your concern;1. I have a mustache and hair under lip and chin (first picture). Can a long stubble like 1st picture look natural?Answer - About the naturalness, I personally think it depends on each surgeon's techniques and experience in doing beard transplant. I believe the experts can make it look very natural even with stubble look.
2. Most patients have long beards (that usually look a bit thin) in their after pictures. About how many grafts would be needed?Answer - In order to do a very thick beard transplant, it requires large amount of grafts at least 2,500-3000 grafts approximately depending on the recipient area. The consultation should be made if the patient also wants hair transplant in the future since the donor reservoir at the occipital scalp is limited.
I hope this helps
