New Trend: Facial Hair Transplants

Facial hair has made a comeback, both for men and women. More men are growing beards and other facial hair configurations as part of their personal style. Women also are enhancing their appearance with thicker, shapely eyebrows. With these styles requiring facial hair, a new trend is also becoming popular: facial hair transplants.

Full Beards and Mustaches

Not all men can naturally grow an even, full beard or mustache. Genetics, scarring and other factors can impede facial hair growth. An option for those with sparse or uneven facial hair is beard or mustache hair transplants. Using advanced FUE (follicle unit extraction), individual hair follicles can be harvested from the scalp and added to the facial region. This is an effective option for growing a full, thick beard or mustache that is non-invasive with no visible scars. Even areas where hair has never grown on the cheek or chin can flourish with new growth using advanced hair transplanting techniques.

Eyebrow Transplants

For decades, women were plucking, waxing, threading and even lasering away eyebrow hair. Now, thicker eyebrows are popular. To enhance thin eyebrows, hair can be transplanted to the brow from the scalp to create natural eyebrows. There are no incisions or stitches; the advanced FUE method removes and transplants hair follicles without surgery. Each follicle can be carefully placed to create the shape and thickness of eyebrow desired.

If you want to explore the options available for facial hair transplants, contact a facial plastic surgeon that offers FUE hair transplants. In as little as one day, you can receive the new hair follicles needed to grow fuller eyebrows or a fantastic new beard with your own natural hair.

3 Popular Plastic Surgeries for Men

Women are not the only ones who want to look their best. More and more men are choosing to seek the services of a plastic surgeon to look younger or change features for a more attractive appearance. While women are more likely to focus on their eyes or lips for cosmetic facial surgery, men have other features that they are more likely to change. Here are three popular plastic surgeries for men that want to look their best.

  1. Nose job. Rhinoplasty or the nose job has been the most popular facial plastic surgery for men for many years. Changing the shape or size of the nose can create more balance to the face, whether it is repairing an injury or changing a genetic issue.
  2. Chin enhancements. The chin and jaw is important to the masculinity of the male face. Chin implants, chin liposuction and neck lifts can all help create a chiseled, defined jaw and chin. Enhancing the chin can have a dramatic impact on the shape of the face.
  3. Hair transplants. Losing hair is a common issue amongst men and one issue that men are very self-conscious about. Hair transplants done by a plastic surgeon can replace lost hair for a more attractive and youthful appearance.

Men are also more likely to consider face lifts, cosmetic injections and other anti-aging procedures than ever before. The stigma that plastic surgery is mainly for women is now in the past, with many men enjoying the benefits of plastic surgery to look younger and more attractive. If you are interested in male plastic surgery, contact a plastic surgeon that specializes in these popular cosmetic enhancements for men.

Women, Do You Want to Lower Your Hairline?

One of the most common reasons that women seek hair transplant surgery is to change the position of their forehead hairline. Many women have a receding hairline that can make their forehead appear longer or larger than it was when they were younger. Hair transplant surgery can be used to add an inch or two to the front hairline, reducing the size of the forehead and creating a more youthful, fuller head of hair.

There are many reasons women may have a receding hairline. This is often much different than the receding hairline in men that can be caused by male pattern baldness. It can be caused by health conditions, medications or genetics, but it can also be due to the strain of certain hairstyles. Pulling the hair back into a barrette or ponytail can remove hair follicles from the front, as can weaves and other hair adornments.

Hair transplant surgery has advanced over the last decade, offering more discreet and reliable options for replacing hair. One system called NeoGraft uses individual donor hair follicles from another area to replace the lost hair at the hairline. This method does not require stitches, leaving no scars for a discreet procedure. There are no strips or stitches like in the old method of transplant, but intricate replacement of individual hairs to add up to two inches to the front of the hairline.

If you would like to lower your front hairline to a more youthful position, consult a plastic surgeon that offers “touch free” hair transplants like NeoGraft. You can have a fuller head of hair without stitches and a quicker recovery time with the new options available in hair transplants.
