When receiving a moustache hair transplant at Clinic Effect, using the FUE technique, the number of grafts you will usually need is anywhere between 300 – 500, depending on your specific requirements.

The number of grafts on the upper area of your moustache will be higher than the bottom of your moustache, due to the layering of hair needed to naturally replicate a real looking piece of facial hair. Your surgeon will advise during a consultation your personalised amount for your needs.

The moustache transplant cost will differ depending on your specific needs, and whether or not you opt for a package including a full beard transplant. By booking a consultation here at Clinic Effect, we can accurately assess the moustache transplant cost for you so that you have a personalised cost. Regardless of how many grafts you may need, the moustache transplant cost will still be vastly lower than in other areas of the world.

Prices for all types of hair transplants, including a moustache FUE transplant or sideburn transplant, are approximately 50% lower in Turkey than in other countries such as the UK and USA.

Just like all our hair transplants offered at Clinic Effect, your moustache FUE transplant will not be painful at all. You may feel a tingling sensation while the moustache hair transplant is taking place, however, thanks to the application of local anaesthetic, you will find that the experience is entirely painless. During a consultation, if you are concerned with experiencing any pain or discomfort, we’ll be happy to discuss your requirements to make the transplant process as comfortable as possible.

Whilst no pain should be experienced, you may feel the procedure being performed and have to remain still throughout, however, we will accommodate you if regular breaks or any further pain relief is needed throughout.

You will usually stay in Istanbul for 2 days, although we do suggest staying for longer just so you can enjoy the beautiful sights and attractions of Turkey. This length of time for a moustache transplant is inclusive of your consultation and initial tests, the operation itself and a day to recover before you choose to fly home or extend your trip.

We always aim to perform surgery quickly for you, but this will vary depending on how many grafts are needed for your new moustache and whether you are combining treatment with other procedures, such as a beard or sideburn transplant.

Side effects of a moustache FUE transplant are minor, and complications are very rare, as long as you follow aftercare guidance and take the proper precautions. Redness and swelling are completely natural, and the healing process is approximately 5 days. We advise that you avoid food that is difficult to chew, to ensure you do not disrupt the operated upon area, and stick to liquid meals if possible, such as smoothies, soup, and juices.

This will give the hair grafts more stability and ensure your moustache hair transplant heals to its maximum capabilities.

You only have to see the results of patients who have undergone a moustache hair transplant to realise how good it looks. At Clinic Effect, using the FUE method ensures the most natural-looking results with no scarring and an exact match to your hair colour.

No one will be able to tell you have undergone a moustache hair transplant, in the same way we perform our renowned hair transplants and beard transplants.

During your consultation, if you want to achieve a full beard and moustache, we can advise how many grafts in total are required and if the results can be achieved. Many patients may have more than one type of surgery through us, whether you are wanting a Hollywood Smile alongside new sideburns, or to address male or female pattern baldness along with your thinning beard. We can tailor the procedures to your needs and provide a personalised quote of the total costs. You will need to consider having multiple procedures may extend the downtime and your stay in Turkey.
