Hi...I'm having a beard transplant at the end of January and am looking at buccal fat removal later in the year. How long would I need to wait after the beard transplant before buccal fat removal to ensure transplanted hairs are not disrupted and effective buccal fat removal can be performed? Sorry if this is in the wrong section as I wasn't sure if beard transplant or buccal fat category was more appropriate. Thanks for answering.

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 and thank you for your question. Yes, absolutely you can ask your surgeon to make your transplant look more natural by making the implant more "irregular". Best wishes to you.
