Thanks 🙏 I really appreciate those pics. Amazing after taking that amount of grafts.

I've had over 2300 beard grafts taken from under my chin.

What was the survival rate? Did it make a decent aesthetic impact?

ive had two sessions on my beard taken.., can cannot see any scarring..

i have had one session on my chest and can see scarring there ie. the white dots.. i assume on the chest a bigger punch is used.

i haves still got one thorough good session left on my beard to take the lot.although i would like them to go slightly  higher onto bottom of chin and cheek bone just to make sure get a good amount of grafts,,,as my crown needs over 2k grafts really.

I would quite happily exhaust as much of my under chin area as possible. It’s all for the greater good 😌

yes i agree John im all for it i have always shaved it anyway. its pointless it being there.. and from a norwood 7 here i need to use it lol.

Hey blower, did the grafts mAke a big impact from the beard and chest, respectively 

[Blower]

from the beard yes..its a very good source i think for hairs.density etc.,like they say singles but mixed in works well.there is plenty can be taken from the beard its a big area so for high norwoods like me its perfect ..

most ive talked to surgeons not that keen on chest hair survival rate wise. though my chest hair is not dense either in numbers compared to other men with chest hair,so i have limited numbers chest hair

I also took chest hair out, trying to see if they and the beard come out and at what percentage. Like you my chest hair don't grow very long, but did you notice most of what the implanted grew?

[Blower]

to be fair mate im not quite sure lol... ive not over analyzed it..say what has been put on my crown from my last op last July..they have all taken and spouted i had no hair there at all,now have some,, ie mostly the crown work chest and beard

[lovinitl9]

That's great to hear that they grew, hopefully they made a difference to your crown

Lots of good information here, thank you.  What are the growth phases and survival rates of these body hair locations ?

Even if they survive, if they are 'resting' it may not make much of a difference.  And how does this compare to scalp hair ?

Ive had a mix of beard and chest hair, so it's difficult to say how well the beard hair has grown vs how well the chest hair has grown. My guess and my feeling is that the beard hair has had a better survival rate. The last session I had last month was all chest hair (actually abdomen hair), so I may be able to get a better idea of how well that hair grows in another 6 months or so, but even then it's all transplanted in between existing hair, so it may still be hard to really know. Overall there's definitely been improvement and several people have commented on my hair recently asking if my hair is growing back or what I've been doing to make my hair grow back in.

arghhh yes mate seems to be the case... i just need few more thousand or even one thousand to get better hairline.. but nowt left now lol. though its getting shaved anyways ie just a buzz cut like number 2 once all work is done...so not too fussed if donor area looks empty..
