Facial Hair: Beard Transplants |

Dr. Jeffrey Epstein, Facial Plastic Surgeon with Baptist Health South Florida, says many guys would rather have a thick beard than a thick head of hair. He points out they do beard transplants in gender reassignment for women that are now men to provide them a masculine look.

He explains beard transplants are commonly used for fixing a patchy beard and for patients that had laser done thinking they did not want to shave and then they regret it. The process consists on taking scalp hair and using it for the beard.
