The article discusses the rising trend of beard transplants, which many men pursue to enhance their masculinity and self-image. Interviewee Vikram Arora shares his personal journey, feeling inadequate due to his inability to grow full facial hair, which he attributed to societal beauty standards. After years of consideration and hesitation, he underwent a successful beard transplant, inspired by the rise of fuller beards during COVID-19. The procedure involves grafting hair follicles from the scalp to the beard area, a practice that has gained momentum among men looking to improve their facial aesthetics.
"Through most of my teens and early adulthood, I was left feeling that I didn't look mature enough, and definitely not masculine enough."
"Beard transplants involve taking hair grafts, or 'follicular units' as they're called in industryspeak, from other parts of the body and inserting them onto the desired area."
