Senior Member wylie Posted September 25, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted September 25, 2013 Very interesting case! My case was the exact opposite, and my beard hair grows well on my scalp. I will be watching this thread for updates, thanks for sharing and grow well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member TakingThePlunge Posted September 26, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted September 26, 2013 Very cool! I wish I had so many grafts to devote to my beard, I've always wanted quality facial hair. Can't wait to see how this progresses. Please keep us updated.

Senior Member StaggerLee123 Posted September 28, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted September 28, 2013 The design looks great I think you will be happy with it. I don't think I've ever seen a complete beard transplant before... very cool. I wish I could trade you my beard for some of your head hair!! I shave every day and it is a hassle... Good luck.

Senior Member Spanker Posted September 28, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted September 28, 2013 Sweet. Never seen this before. Seems like it could be a positive surgery for transgender males who have no facial hair. Keep the updates coming. I would like to see how this turns out. Your profile says that you have crown thinning, but I can't tell from the photos. Is this accurate and what did the doctor say about you using grafts on your face vs saving then for your head?

Rey Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Hi Motor23, I just had a similar transplant 3 days ago. How is the beard and hair now? Could you please tell me what you experienced so far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tntx Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Hi Motor23 and Rey, I had a similar transplant too 2 months ago in Turkey. Would love to get in touch to share pictures and experiences! I'm from Holland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Mickey85 Posted March 23, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted March 23, 2014 Can't say I'm too enthusiastic about a surgeon using up 50% of an average person's donor on creating a beard... I wish you all the very best in your result though, I hope you don't lose any scalp hair.. The only 2 threads you will ever need: Revamped Advantages/Disadvantages of FUE. Myths dispelled.

I wish you all the very best in your result though, I hope you don't lose any scalp hair.. Agreed. I know beards are in and some people might benefit from filling in a few gaps here or there (e.g patients with scars) ..but to create a whole beard from scratch is just plain daft! 4,312 FUT grafts (7,676 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2013 1,145 FUE grafts (3,152 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2018 763 FUE grafts (2,094 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - January 2020 Proscar 1.25mg every 3rd day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garfield Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Hi Motor23, I was just wandering if you are still active in these forums ? Your experience is invaluable for people interested in full beard transplantation. I would like to learn more about your experiences with a full beard transplant and also any others here that have done the same procedure. Thanks, Garfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
