<\/p>\nRio Ferdinand has revealed his stunning new hair and beard transplant.<\/p>\n
The Manchester United legend jetted off to Istanbul, Turkey, to undergo his treatment at Dr Emrah Cinik\u2019s clinic. Ferdinand, 45, stars in a slick promotional video where he can be seen arriving at the clinic and greeting staff.<\/p>\n
The viral TikTok clip, uploaded by Dr Cinik himself on Sunday, shows the fascinating process of Ferdinand having his hairline brought forward and the patches in his beard filled in.<\/p>\n

Ferdinand says in the video: \u201cI'm here to get my beard sorted out, I've got a couple of holes, a couple of patches. Getting my hair transplant done. I can't wait to get it done. Listen, if you're ever thinking about getting yours done, this is the place to be.\u201d<\/p>\n
The TNT Sports pundit was delighted with the results in the end as he signed a United shirt to add to the clinic\u2019s wall of other well-known footballer clients. Though Ferdinand would have forked out a fortune, with Dr Cinik\u2019s hair transplants starting at \u20ac2,350 (\u00a32,027) and going up to \u20ac3,790 (\u00a33,271). <\/p>\n

He follows a whole host of other stars in seeking out the Istanbul-based clinic\u2019s services, with Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes sporting a replenished hairline since his own transplant in 2022. <\/p>\n
And the video also shows one of the clinic's walls lined with various other football jerseys belonging to the likes of Brazil legend Rivaldo, former Liverpool winger Ryan Babel, ex-Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna and Sevilla midfielder Ivan Rakitic.<\/p>\n

Ferdinand had explained back in 2021 that he dyes his beard to avoid looking \u201clike a Dalmatian\u201d. He said on Gabby Logan\u2019s podcast: \u201cI'm not ashamed of having grey hair, I don't care, but it looks better if it's all one colour.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf it all went grey, the whole beard was grey, I'd let it just go. But it's like patchwork. I'd like it, that distinguished look, if it was all grey, I wouldn't care. But it's the patchwork business, I'm like a Dalmatian, I don't like it.\u201d<\/p>\n
