A beard transplant for Stevenage patients costs a fixed £2,899, all-inclusive whatever the number of grafts, carried out in one day under local anaesthetic by GMC-registered surgeons at CQC-registered clinics. It thickens patchy growth or builds a new beard line using your own permanent hair, with 5☆ independently verified reviews and a free video consultation as the first step.
A Beard Transplant for Stevenage Patients with My Hair UK
For Stevenage patients the process is built to be simple: a free consultation with the surgeon who would carry out your procedure, by video from home or in-person at the clinic, then a plan and fixed price agreed in writing, and the surgery itself completed in a single day under local anaesthetic. Nothing is committed until you have seen exactly what your beard needs and what it costs.
The procedure is FUE applied to the face: individual follicular units are moved from the permanent donor area at the back and sides of your scalp into the cheeks, jawline, moustache or chin. The transplanted hair behaves like beard hair from then on, and it lasts, because donor hair keeps its permanence wherever it is placed. Our beard restoration guide covers the surgery itself in more depth.
The typical case is not a full beard from nothing. It is patchy cheeks, thin sideburns, a moustache that does not join the chin, or gaps that make a beard look untidy at every length. Genetic patchiness does not fill in on its own, and our guide to fixing a patchy beard explains why the non-surgical options rarely close the gap.
Beard Transplant Cost in Stevenage
The price for Stevenage patients is £2,899, fixed before surgery and unchanged by the graft count. Per-graft pricing is the industry norm, and it is why quotes elsewhere often arrive as a range that only settles once you are committed. We think that is the wrong way round. The number of grafts you need is a clinical decision, so it should not be a billing lever, and with a fixed fee the surgeon plans your beard around the best result rather than a price band.
The £2,899 is all-inclusive: surgery, local anaesthetic, clinic fees, aftercare pack and follow-up reviews. How that compares across the UK market, and why the price does not scale with grafts, is covered on our beard transplant cost page.
How Much Does a Beard Transplant Cost in Stevenage?
Typical graft counts by area, with the fixed price alongside:
| Area | Typical Grafts | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Moustache | 400-500 | £2,899 |
| Sideburns | 200-300 each side | £2,899 |
| Goatee and chin | 600-700 | £2,899 |
| Cheeks | 300-600 each side | £2,899 |
| Full beard | 2,000-2,500 | £2,899 |
The Procedure, Start to Finish
On the day itself you are at the clinic for several hours, awake, under local anaesthetic. The surgeon first draws the design on your face and agrees every line with you: the cheek line, the jawline and neckline, how the moustache joins the chin, and how new growth blends into any beard you already have. Nothing is placed until you are happy with those lines.
Grafts are then extracted one follicular unit at a time from the back and sides of your scalp, where hair is a close match for beard hair and keeps its permanence. Each graft is placed flat to the skin in the direction beard hair grows, with single-hair grafts along the visible edges. It is one day of surgery, and you go home the same evening.
How Many Grafts Does a Beard Transplant Take?
Typical graft counts by area, matching both the published literature and what the surgeons see in practice:
| Area | Typical Grafts |
|---|---|
| Sideburns | 200-300 each side |
| Moustache | 400-500 |
| Goatee and chin | 600-700 |
| Cheeks | 300-600 each side |
| Full beard | 2,000-2,500 |
Beard Transplant Recovery Timeline
Recovery is quicker than most patients expect. For the first few days the treated area shows a small scab at each graft with some redness, and the scabs lift over the first two weeks. The patient photographs in this section show it honestly: fine dotted scabbing the day after surgery, then the same beard at two weeks with the scabs cleared and only slight redness remaining. Do not shave the transplanted area for the first two weeks; after that it can be trimmed, and normal shaving usually resumes from around a month once the grafts are secure.
Between roughly week two and week eight the transplanted hairs shed. This is normal and it is not the grafts failing: the follicles stay in place, new growth starts at around three months, and the beard reaches its final density between nine and twelve months. We keep in touch through the regrowth period with regular monthly check-ins, and you have free follow-up consultations with your surgeon at 6 and 12 months, by video or in-person.

Travelling From Stevenage
Stevenage to London Kings Cross is 23 minutes on Great Northern’s peak non-stop trains and around 40 minutes off peak, and Kings Cross is a five-minute walk from Euston’s Overground platforms, so the Harrow clinic is barely an hour from the first New Town. The Manchester clinic holds the same CQC registration for Stevenage patients, reached by crossing to Euston for Avanti.
Whether home is Broadwater, Great Ashby, Martins Wood or St Nicholas, in the town where Airbus built the Rosalind Franklin Mars rover, fresh from a show at the Gordon Craig Theatre on Lytton Way, the Roman barrows in Stevenage Museum on St George’s Way or a Boro home game at the Lamex Stadium, book a free consultation with our trichology team, in person or by video call, and receive a tailored beard plan for Stevenage patients with the fixed £2,899 price confirmed in writing.
From Stevenage to My Hair UK London (Harrow) Clinic
By Train
Great Northern runs from Stevenage to London Kings Cross several times an hour, 23 minutes non-stop at peak and around 40 minutes on the stopping trains, from the 1973 station built a mile south of the original to serve the new centre. Platform 5, the bay on the western edge with its own ticket gates, is the slow Hertford Loop train to Moorgate, not the Kings Cross one. From Kings Cross, walk five minutes along Euston Road to Euston, where the Overground’s Lioness line runs direct to Kenton in about 25 minutes; the Harrow clinic is a short walk from Kenton station, the last leg of the journey from Stevenage.
By Car
Driving from Stevenage takes around an hour. Junction 7 of the A1(M) at Broadhall Way is Stevenage South, Junction 8 at Corey’s Mill is Stevenage North; the A1(M) south to South Mimms, Junction 23 of the M25, then anti-clockwise, the junction numbers falling as you go west, to Junction 19 at Hunton Bridge for the A41 through Stanmore and the A409 down into Kenton Lane, the end of the drive from Stevenage.
From Stevenage to My Hair UK Manchester Clinic
By Train
For Manchester, take Great Northern to Kings Cross, walk the five minutes to Euston and join Avanti West Coast’s direct service to Manchester Piccadilly, around 3 hours 15 minutes in all. From Piccadilly it is a fifteen-minute walk through Piccadilly Gardens and along Market Street to the top of Deansgate, or a tram to Victoria, five minutes from the door, and that is the whole journey from Stevenage done.
By Car
By car from Stevenage allow around 3 hours 30 minutes, and there is no direct link from the A1(M) to the M1: locals go west on the A602 through Hitchin and the A505 to Luton for Junction 10, or south to Junction 6 at Welwyn and the A414 across to Junction 8 by Hemel Hempstead. Then the M1 north to Catthorpe, the M6 to Junction 19 for the A556 and the M56, the M60 to Junction 12 and the M602 into Salford, where Regent Road brings Stevenage drivers onto Deansgate.
Local GPs
Talk to your GP in Stevenage before elective surgery, since some conditions and medications affect graft survival; the surgeon will cover your history at consultation. Stevenage has only five GP organisations, so three NHS sites across two of them:
Bedwell Medical Centre (Bedwell Crescent, part of the Bedwell and Roebuck partnership)
Address: Sinfield Close, Bedwell Crescent, Stevenage SG1 1LQ
Roebuck Surgery (Broadwater, the partnership’s second site)
Address: 114 Broadwater Crescent, Stevenage SG2 8HW
Shephall Health Centre (Ridlins End)
Address: Ridlins End, off Shephall Way, Stevenage SG2 9QZ

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. How much is a beard transplant for someone in Stevenage?
£2,899, one fixed all-inclusive fee regardless of graft count. Whether your plan needs 600 grafts or 2,500, the price is the same, and it is confirmed before surgery so nothing changes on the day.
2. Is there a beard transplant clinic in Stevenage?
Surgery for Stevenage patients is carried out at CQC-registered clinics in central Manchester and Harrow, north-west London, rather than in Stevenage itself. Because the procedure is completed in a single day, most patients treat it as one travel day, and everything before and after surgery can be handled by video from home, with the free consultation also available in-person at the clinic if you prefer.
3. Where does the transplanted hair come from?
From the back and sides of your own scalp, extracted one follicular unit at a time. Hair from this area is a close match for beard hair in texture and growth.
4. How soon after a beard transplant can I shave normally?
Around a month. For the first two weeks the transplanted area is not shaved at all, from week two it can be trimmed, and once the grafts are secure at about the one-month mark normal shaving resumes.
5. How many grafts will my beard need?
It depends on the areas treated: sideburns typically take 200 to 300 each, a moustache 400 to 500, the goatee and chin 600 to 700, and cheeks 300 to 600 each side. Even full construction at 2,000 to 2,500 grafts fits in one day, and the price is the same fixed £2,899 regardless.
6. Will the price change once the surgeon sees my beard?
No. £2,899 is the price for every beard transplant, agreed in writing before surgery, whatever graft count your plan turns out to need. There are no on-the-day additions.
7. What is the best age for a beard transplant?
Whenever your growth pattern has stabilised, which is typically from the mid twenties onwards. Our guide to the best age for a beard transplant covers how to judge it, and the free assessment gives you a straight answer for your own case.
