Beard transplant graft calculator
Choose the beard areas you want to fill and adjust the area and added graft density. Use the result to prepare questions for your consultation. It cannot assess your facial hair, donor supply or suitability for surgery.

Approximate hairs:
Grafts and hairs are different counts. The conversion uses your chosen average and does not predict survival, growth or final density.
What the figure means
For each selected region, the calculator multiplies the area in square centimetres by the added graft density. For example, 20 cm² at 30–40 grafts per cm² gives 600–800 grafts. It adds the selected regions together and rounds to whole grafts.
Select each cheek separately. Jawline and sideburn figures each cover both sides, so enter a combined area. Left and right refer to the person shown. The shading marks areas; it does not preview a transplanted beard.
A graft is a small piece of transplanted tissue that can contain several hairs. The hairs-per-graft figure is only an arithmetic assumption. Use a figure from your consultation if you have one.
What a consultation needs to establish
The tool cannot measure your head, subtract existing hair or assess the donor area. Your plan also depends on the cause and progression of hair loss, existing hair, hair characteristics, scalp or skin condition and available donor supply.
The British Association of Hair Restoration Surgery’s guidance on surgical planning explains the doctor’s role in recommending the number of grafts and the treatment design. A higher calculator total does not establish that the grafts are available or that they should be used.
Surgery has risks, including bleeding, infection, scarring and a result that does not meet expectations. The NHS guide to hair transplants explains these limitations. Your surgeon should discuss the risks relevant to your proposed procedure.
