Facial hair is a defining masculine feature. Some men can naturally grow a full, luxurious beard, while others are genetically predisposed to a patchy, thin, or uneven beard. At Leong Hair Restoration, we believe that despite genetics, you deserve to have the facial hair you desire — which is why we’re proud to offer advanced facial hair restoration. This revolutionary procedure can create natural-looking, thick facial hair to achieve an undeniably masculine look.

What is facial hair restoration?

Facial hair restoration is a surgical technique where functional, growing hair follicles are taken from other areas of the body (such as the head or chest) and transplanted to the face. This technique allows our surgeons to enhance your facial hair so it appears full and natural, whether it’s a mustache, beard, eyebrows, or sideburns.

Facial hair restoration can help you:

  • Improve and volumize your existing beard
  • Fill in patchy areas
  • Shape your beard to suit your aesthetic
  • Create thicker sideburns
  • Enhance thinner eyebrows
  • Provide facial hair as part of an FTM transition

Am I a candidate?

The best candidates for facial hair restoration are those who:

  • Have a lack of facial hair, whether through genetics or injury
  • Want to create a fuller look for the brows, sideburns, or beard
  • Are in general good health
  • Do not smoke, or are willing to stop for a time before and after the procedure
  • Have reasonable expectations regarding the results of the procedure

Dr. Leong will meet you in a private consultation to perform a comprehensive medical review. This will ensure the treatment is safe for you and that it’s the best option to accomplish your goals.

What to expect with facial hair restoration

Facial hair restoration is performed with the follicular unit extraction (FUE) technique, which is minimally invasive and involves little recovery time. Many people return to work or other activities the following day.

Be aware that in the first phase, the transplanted hairs will shed, but full growth will return in several months, with the final results becoming apparent at about one year.

Within a few months, the newly-implanted follicles will produce natural hair which will blend perfectly with your existing facial hair. The best part is that the results last. In fact, your new facial hair should last a lifetime!

PRP for enhanced results

If you’re interested in enhancing the quality of your existing facial hair, PRP (platelet-rich plasma) hair restoration might be an ideal option. This treatment harnesses the healing power of your own plasma to stimulate cellular regeneration and trigger your existing hair follicles to produce healthier, thicker hair. PRP hair restoration is also ideal for those who undergo a transplant, as PRP can speed and enhance your results.
