Whether you've lost sideburn hair due to genetics, scarring from facelifts, or burns, or you simply want fuller, more defined sideburns, this procedure provides a permanent, natural solution. Sideburn transplants are often combined with beard transplants for a comprehensive facial hair result.
The procedure
Sideburn transplants typically require 200–600 grafts per side, depending on the desired length and density. Follicles are extracted from the back of the scalp using FUE and implanted at angles matching natural sideburn growth patterns. The transition between scalp hair and sideburn hair is carefully designed for a seamless, natural appearance.
Ideal candidates
Sideburn transplants are popular among patients who lack sideburn growth naturally, those who've lost sideburn hair after facelift surgery, burn survivors, or anyone wanting thicker, fuller sideburns to complement their hairstyle and facial structure.

Is it safe? Does it hurt?
We know you have concerns. Here are honest answers.
Is it safe?
Yes. Hair transplant is one of the safest cosmetic procedures. Our partner clinics are accredited, use sterile single-use instruments, and every procedure is performed or supervised by a licensed surgeon. Turkiye's Ministry of Health strictly regulates medical tourism clinics.
Does it hurt?
The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia — you feel nothing during the operation. The numbing injections take 10-15 minutes and cause mild pinching. Needle-free anaesthesia is available for zero-pain numbing. Most patients rate post-operative discomfort as 2-3 out of 10.
What are the risks?
Serious complications are very rare. Normal side effects include temporary redness (2-4 weeks), mild swelling (3-5 days), and shock loss of transplanted hairs at weeks 2-4 (they regrow). Infection risk is minimal with proper antibiotics and aftercare protocols.
How long is recovery?
Most patients return to desk work in 5-7 days. Scabs fall off within 10-14 days. Light exercise from week 2, full exercise from week 3-4. New hair growth begins at month 3-4, with final results at 12-18 months.

WhatsApp Us NowFrequently asked questions
Can sideburns be combined with a beard transplant?
Yes, sideburn and beard transplants are frequently performed together in a single session. The combined approach creates a cohesive, natural result from sideburns through the jawline and chin.
How long until sideburns look natural?
Transplanted sideburn hairs shed at 2–3 weeks and begin regrowing at 3–4 months. By 8–12 months, the sideburns look fully natural and dense, blending seamlessly with your scalp hair.
How many grafts do I need?
Typical sideburn restoration requires 200–600 grafts per side, depending on desired length and density. If combining with a beard transplant, total grafts may reach 2,000–3,500.
