Sideburn:

Sideburns are the facial hair grown within a strip-like structure from the hairline down to the jawline. While covering the front side of the ears, there is often styling depending on personal preferences.

Sideburn Hair Transplant: 

Sideburn Hair Transplant focuses on the restoration of the hairline on the sideburn area of the face. Regardless of the underlying reason causing the hair fall.

Options Available:

How Does it Work?

The Sideburn Hair Transplant works by moving hair grafts and follicles from the donor area to the recipient region. The sideburn area is then marked, and incisions are made to implant these follicles according to the natural direction of the hair. After the healing process, follicles start receiving blood from the body. Eventually, the follicles start to flourish and settle down within the transplanted area. Later, the production and functioning of the collagen is stimulated.
