Mustache Transplant Turkey

Mustache transplant Turkey is a procedure for individuals to have lush, prominent and facially compatible moustaches. Moustaches and beards are very important to the overall aesthetic of a man’s face. Lush moustaches can make the face look much more symmetrical, hiding  scars and aesthetic imperfections between the upper lip and the nose. At the same time, they can give the individual a more mature look without appearing older. However, due to genetic and developmental factors, it is not possible for everyone to have a lush moustache.

What is a Mustache Transplant?

Moustache transplant is a procedure used to create a full moustache look in individuals with sparse hair or no moustache in the area between the upper lip and nose. This is done using hair transplant methods such as FUE. During this procedure, the hair follicles taken from the donor area are transferred to the target area according to a specific moustache look plan. In this way, a full moustache look is achieved.

Why Is a Mustache Transplant Performed?

In some individuals, the moustache may be sparse due to genetic factors. Some individuals have no moustache at all or have openings in the moustache area due to scarring. Thanks to moustache transplants, it is possible to remove openings in the moustache area or to ensure that individuals with no moustache have attractive and full moustaches.

For Whom Is a Mustache Transplant Recommended?

Moustache transplants are recommended for individuals who do not have a moustache due to genetic reasons, whose moustache is sparse or who wish to increase the fullness of the moustache in a way that ensures symmetry in the facial area. People who have lost their moustache due to wounds, burns or surgery can also benefit from this procedure.

At What Age Does a Mustache Start to Grow?

Moustaches usually start to grow in early adolescence, increasing in visibility between the ages of 13 and 16, and are fully grown by the early 20s. However, in some individuals, due to hormonal and genetic factors, the moustache may grow late, be sparse or not grow at all.

What Can Be Done to Have Full and Bushy Moustaches?

Individuals who wish to have full and bushy moustaches can consider the following tips:

• A diet that is rich in protein, vitamins and minerals should be followed.
• Essential supplements such as biotin and zinc should be taken for moustache health (as advised by the doctor).
• Cosmetic products that are likely to weaken the hair follicles or damage the skin tissue in the moustache area should be avoided.
• Blood circulation in the moustache area should be increased by massaging.
• Smoking and alcohol consumption should be reduced and, if possible, completely quit.

Such recommendations can help the hair follicles that form the moustache to develop a healthier structure and the moustache to look healthier, even if it is sometimes difficult to notice. However, these recommendations do not have any effect on the formation of new hair follicles in the moustache area. It just slows down the hair loss in the related area, which can help the moustache look bushier.

Does Moustache Hair Fall Off?

The hairs that make up the moustache will also fall out in a certain amount during the course of the day. Hormonal factors, stress and nutritional problems can increase the severity of this hair loss.

How Many Grafts Are Used in a Mustache Transplant?

The number of grafts needed for a moustache transplant will depend on the thickness of the person’s moustache and the width of the area to be transplanted. Usually 350-500 grafts are sufficient to achieve a natural looking result.

Your doctor will give you detailed information about the duration of your moustache transplant after drawing up a special plan for you.

How Is a Mustache Transplant Performed?

Mustache transplants using the FUE method are painless and performed under local anaesthesia. During the procedure, the hair follicle is first extracted from the donor area. These hair follicles are then transferred into small channels that open into the moustache area. This effectively increases the hair density in the moustache area of the individual.

• Both the transplant area and the donor area should be protected from sunlight.
• For a certain period of time, the patient should sleep in supine position.
