A moustache transplant is a specialized facial hair restoration procedure where hair follicles are extracted from the scalp and transplanted to the upper lip area. It is ideal for men who have thin, patchy, or absent moustache growth due to genetics, scarring, or hormonal factors. At HairSure Clinic, we have performed over 500 moustache transplants with exceptional aesthetic results.

The Moustache Transplant Procedure

Design Phase: The moustache shape is drawn on the upper lip based on your preferences and facial symmetry. We consider philtrum width, lip shape, and overall facial proportions.

Donor Extraction: 800-1000 single-hair grafts extracted from the scalp using 0.8mm punches. Single hairs selected for most natural moustache appearance.

Precise Implantation: Each graft implanted at shallow angle (5-10 degrees) mimicking natural moustache growth. Direction follows the characteristic outward sweep from center.

Procedure Stats: Grafts 800-1000. Duration 2-3 hours. Anesthesia local. Recovery 3-5 days. Visible results 3-4 months.
