Sideburn Hair Transplant
Restore or define your sideburn framing
Sideburn hair transplantation is a specialised facial procedure that restores sideburns thinned or lost due to scarring, prior surgery (such as facelifts), burns or natural absence — using fine single-hair grafts placed at a very acute angle to mimic natural sideburn growth.
Because sideburns frame the face and transition between scalp and facial hair, their restoration demands meticulous attention to hairline design, growth direction and graft calibre to create a result that looks entirely natural.
Key Benefits
- Permanent sideburn restoration or augmentation
- Natural-looking hairline and growth direction
- Corrects asymmetry between the two sides
- Useful after facelift surgery that displaces or removes sideburns
Is This Treatment Right For You?
- Patients whose sideburns were removed or displaced during facelift surgery
- Those with scarring or burns affecting the sideburn area
- Men or women wanting to define or extend their sideburns
What to Expect

Recipient Site Creation
Tiny incisions are made at the correct angle and direction for natural-looking growth.

Grafts are placed individually to fill in the sideburn design.
Recovery & Aftercare
Mild redness and scabbing for 7–10 days; transplanted hair sheds and regrows within 3–4 months with final results at 9 months.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can sideburns be transplanted after a facelift?
