Getting a beard transplant is an exciting step towards achieving the facial hair you’ve always wanted. But one common question that arises is: Can I still shave my beard after a beard transplant? At Rebornia Hair Clinic, we’re here to provide you with all the answers you need. Whether it’s about shaving, post-transplant care, or the recovery timeline, this guide has you covered.
Immediately after your beard transplant, the focus is on proper care to ensure the success of the procedure. Here are some tips to protect your newly transplanted facial hair grafts during the healing phase:
Avoid Touching the Area: Keep your hands away from the transplanted area to prevent infection or dislodging grafts.
Gentle Cleaning: Use a mild, non-abrasive cleanser as recommended by your surgeon to clean the area.
Avoid Direct Sunlight: Protect your face from excessive sun exposure as it can irritate the grafts.
Skip Intense Activities: Avoid strenuous activities that might cause sweating or bumping into the transplanted area.
Patience is key after a beard transplant. Here’s what you can expect:
First Week: Mild swelling and redness are normal. Small scabs may form around the grafts.
2-3 Weeks: Transplanted hairs may shed in a process called “shock loss.” Don’t worry; this is temporary.
3-6 Months: New hair growth begins, but results will still be developing.
9-12 Months: Enjoy the full results of your thicker, natural-looking beard.
At Rebornia Hair Clinic, we ensure every patient understands the recovery timeline to set realistic expectations.

Recovering from a beard transplant involves several stages. Here’s a breakdown:
Day 1-7: Protect the grafts; avoid shaving or applying pressure to the area.
Week 2-3: Some transplanted hairs may shed; this is normal and part of the healing process.
Month 1-3: Patience is required as the new hairs begin to grow back.
After 6 Months: Significant growth will be noticeable, with full results by 12 months.
Our team at Rebornia will guide you through each phase, ensuring you know exactly what to expect.
Experiencing mild swelling or discomfort? These tips can help:
Cold Compress: Apply a cold compress near the affected area (not directly on the grafts).
Elevate Your Head: Sleep with your head elevated to reduce swelling.
Avoid Hot Showers: Stick to lukewarm water to avoid irritating the skin.
Follow Your Surgeon’s Advice: Use prescribed medications or creams as directed.

The big question: When can you shave your beard after a transplant?
First 2 Weeks: Avoid shaving entirely to protect the grafts.
Week 3-4: You can carefully use a beard shaver on non-transplanted areas.
After 4 Weeks: Begin shaving the transplanted area with caution, preferably with an electric trimmer.
After 3 Months: Feel free to shave and style your new beard as you please.
Shaving too early can damage the grafts, so it’s important to follow the timeline provided by your surgeon.
