Question

Can one get a beard implant if they have KPRF or Rocesea? What are the cost for the beard implant and is it realistic looking?

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

Cost of surgery is dependant on the type of procedure and the number of grafts you receive.Having rosacea should not be an issue.

Matthew Richardson, MD · Answer

Inflammatory conditions in the skin should be under control prior to any hair transplant procedure, including a beard transplant. Mild rosacea should not be a limiting factor for a successful transplant.The costs are going to vary based on the number of grafts that need to be transplanted, and this is individualized for each patient. Be sure to see a hair transplant specialist, as a beard transplant is an advanced technique. The results can be excellent and look very natural when performed properly.All the best,

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

Skin diseases of the beard area can be a limiting factor for a beard transplant. Many young men want to accelerate their beard growth and ask about it. It takes age (genetic triggers which occur in family lines) so if you want to find out when your beard will grow out, you need to find out when your father or grandfather started to grow their beard. Hormones should have kicked in nicely by the time a man reaches 18 but he must wait out his genetics as hormone alone are not responsible for the onset of beard grown. The drug minoxidil may help.  Beard transplants can be done when the young man is a bit older (over 25) if the beard has not grown in yet
