ArochaHair Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 This patient came to see Dr. Arocha because he was concerned about the patchy growth in his beard. Using the ARTAS robot by Restoration Robotics, Dr. Arocha was able to extract 1658 grafts in one procedure. Dr. Arocha filled in the areas lacking facial hair with the goal of creating a more consistent field of growth. The result is shown at six months.

ArochaHair Posted March 19, 2016 Author Share Posted March 19, 2016 I think this is the first ARTAS beard job I've ever seen. How many grafts do beards like this need to get better density? This looks a hell of a lot better, for sure, so great job! "Better" is relative but to get a cosmetic improvement that would be worthwhile another few hundred to even a thousand could be done with effectiveness. Beards vary from person to person, not just in density but in overall surface area so the goal with patients like this is to simply get a cosmetic improvement, which Dr. Arocha has obviously achieved. Thank you for your comments. We're glad you like the result:) Online representative for Dr. Bernard Arocha Learn more about Hair Transplants in Texas!

Senior Member ArochaInfo Posted March 25, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted March 25, 2016 Hello friends, Here is a updated photo of the patient's donor area after 6 months.

Senior Member Matt27 Posted March 26, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted March 26, 2016 Being completely honest - I have a good beard and it doesn't look like I need to worry about hair transplants making nice beards commonplace. The result looks unnatural and I don't see a cosmetic improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please use this photo and pick out specifics that help you to form your opinion. Thank you. Online representative for Dr. Bernard Arocha Learn more about Hair Transplants in Texas!

Senior Member Matt27 Posted March 31, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted March 31, 2016 Biggest thing is you should have constructed a proper goatee before transplanting to the cheeks. The way it was designed looks like an exaggerated handlebar mustache. I guess David Beckham has a similar pattern with much of the goatee completely bare, but this result looks strange to look at.

ArochaHair Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 The way it was designed looks like an exaggerated handlebar mustache. I see the resemblance. What ever were we thinking? I do not know which photos you are looking at but on the case we presented above the goal was to connect the moustache to the beard, along either side of his mouth and then fill in the patches of no growth on the cheeks. The "goatee" was already established and also needed only to be connected to the beard on the cheeks. The patient is coming in soon to have round 2 with the ARTAS for increasing overall density.
