CONOR BENN has shown off his new look following his beard transplant in November as he asked fans to rate his appearance.
The unbeaten welterweight star underwent the eight-hour long procedure last year as doctors at the British Hair Clinic took hair from the back of his head to insert into his face.

And the 23-year-old is clearly loving his new beard judging by a video released from the BHC on social media.
In the clip, Benn said: “So before I had my beard done by British Hair Clinic, I rated my beard a 3/10.
“Now listed I ain’t got to rate it, but what do you lot rate my beard out of ten? I know what it is.”
He then tells the camera he knows it’s a 10/10 as he made a double five-finger gesture.
Benn’s promoter Eddie Hearn then commented on Benn’s new look when speaking on the Pound for Pound podcast.

He stated that Benn now has a “great beard”, and joked that that “he has the full gear on” as he admitted his shock that he required surgery due to his young age.
But Benn’s transplant surgeon Dr. Zabeeh has revealed why some young men struggle to grow the beard they desire.
He said: “Many men are unable to grow a full beard. Some men can only grow partial beards with visible patches.
“This can be due to a number of reasons including genetic, medical conditions and lifestyles factors such as stress can cause incomplete and patchy beards.”

Before adding: “Conor’s beard is still only at the halfway stage in terms of growth and maturation. Over the coming months, we expect the beard hair to get stronger and thicker.
“Full results normally take 12 months or longer. The fact that Conor is a young, fit professional would have helped him to get his amazing results much sooner.”
And Benn will be hoping it won’t be too long before he can show off his new look inside the ring as he warned his next opponent they should be “scared” of his facing him.
