Body Hair Transplant

Body Hair Transplant in Delhi

For patients with advanced baldness or depleted scalp donor areas, a Body Hair Transplant (BHT) opens new possibilities for achieving denser, natural-looking results.

At Regrow by DermaCircles, we specialize in beard-to-scalp hair transplants — the most reliable and effective form of BHT — offering hope to those with Norwood Grade 6 or 7 baldness, previous failed transplants, or donor exhaustion.

Our proprietary ‘Mesh’ technique ensures high graft survival, seamless blending, and minimal scarring — delivering natural density even in the most challenging cases.

What is a Body Hair Transplant?

A Body Hair Transplant is a surgical procedure performed when a patient’s scalp donor area is insufficient.

In such cases, hair follicles are harvested from other parts of the body such as the beard, chest, arms, legs, underarms, or pubic region and transplanted to the balding scalp areas.

Among these, beard hair is considered the best donor substitute after scalp hair due to its:

Thicker calibre and longer growth phase (anagen phase)
Resistance to balding hormones (DHT)
High graft yield with minimal scarring

At Regrow by DermaCircles, we primarily use beard hair for body hair transplants to ensure uniform texture, better survival rates, and naturally blended results.

Benefits of Body Hair Transplant

A Body Hair Transplant is a life-changing solution for patients who have limited scalp donors or failed previous transplants.

Restores full coverage for advanced baldness (Norwood Grade 6–7)
Ideal for repair cases with donor area depletion from earlier surgeries
Boosts confidence by providing a denser, more complete scalp appearance
Effective for scarring alopecia where scalp donors may not survive
Beard grafts blend naturally with scalp hair for uniform texture
Minimally invasive and safe, performed under local anaesthesia

While body hair differs slightly from scalp hair in texture and curl, when combined strategically, it achieves impressive, natural-looking density.

Procedure for Body Hair Transplant

The Body Hair Transplant procedure can be performed using either FUE or Direct Hair Transplant (DHT) technique.

Here’s how it’s done at Regrow by DermaCircles:

Step-by-Step Process

1. Consultation & Planning
A detailed assessment of the scalp, hair loss pattern, and donor areas is conducted to estimate the graft requirement.

2. Preparation & Anaesthesia
Donor and recipient areas are marked, and local anaesthesia is administered for a painless experience.

3. Slit Creation
Micro-slits are made in the recipient (balding) areas in the direction of natural hair growth for a uniform result.

4. Graft Extraction

Hair is extracted from body donor sites — typically beard or chest — using a sharp, serrated micro-punch to minimize scarring.
Beard hair is preferred for its texture, long anagen phase, and density.
For chest hair, shaving is advised 7 days before surgery to identify faster-growing follicles.

5. Implantation
Extracted grafts are carefully implanted in the recipient area to match the angle, curl, and density of natural scalp hair.

6. Blending
Beard grafts are mixed strategically with scalp grafts to achieve natural texture and density.

7. Post-Procedure Care
After implantation, patients receive detailed aftercare guidance and follow-up sessions to ensure maximum graft survival.

⏱ Duration: 8–10 hours (depending on the graft count and number of donor areas used)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What is the recovery time for Body Hair Transplant?

Both donor and recipient areas heal within 8–12 days. After a follow-up visit, patients are taught proper washing techniques.

After that, minimal precautions are required.

2. Is Body Hair Transplant permanent?

Yes. Transplanted body hair behaves like scalp hair and continues to grow naturally.

However, age-related hormonal changes (DHT effect) can gradually thin even transplanted hair.

Continued medical maintenance helps prolong longevity.

3. Are there any side effects of Body Hair Transplant?

When performed by skilled surgeons, side effects are rare.

Improper technique or poor hygiene can cause infection or minor scarring at the donor site.

At our clinic, all procedures are done under strict aseptic conditions to avoid complications.

4. Who is a good candidate for Body Hair Transplant?

Ideal candidates include those who:

Have poor or exhausted scalp donors
Wish for complete coverage in one sitting
Have failed previous transplants
Suffer from scarring alopecia
Experience retrograde thinning

5. Which body hair type is best for scalp transplantation?

Beard hair – Closest match to scalp hair; thick, durable, long growth cycle; yields 3,000–5,000 grafts.
Chest hair – Second-best option; shorter growth cycle and higher transection rate.
Underarm, leg, or pubic hair – Used only when beard/chest hair is unavailable due to their short anagen phase and different texture.
