Eyebrow transplantation is performed by transferring hair follicles taken from the donor area to the eyebrow region, just like hair transplantation. A small area of the back of the head is shaved and grafts containing single strands of hair are extracted using a micromotor. As the extraction process is minimal, there are no visible scars in the donor area. From 40-50 to 200-300 grafts can be extracted and transferred to the eyebrow area for transplantation. Local anaesthesia is used so that the patient feels no pain during or after the procedure. The eyebrow transplant procedure is carefully carried out by our doctor and his expert medical team members. In the end, the eyebrows will look naturally beautiful. The whole process of healing and shaping the eyebrows can take 8-12 months. It is to be expected that the growth of the implanted hair after the transplant will initially be similar to that of any other hair, given that it was taken from the donor area. However, as the blood circulation in the eyebrow area adjusts within a year or so, it stops growing and the implanted hair follicles take on the characteristics of eyebrow hair.
As with any transplant procedure, eyebrow transplantation requires some decent care to ensure the best results and quickest recovery. Regardless of the technique used in the transplant, (DHI or FUE Sapphire) post-operative care has a direct impact on the success of the procedure. It is essential to take the necessary precautions to ensure the desired result is achieved.Once the eyebrow transplant has been completed, the medical team will dress the patient and give them all the necessary instructions. Full growth of the eyebrows would start to show in the first four months, but it may take eight to twelve months for the full effect to be seen. To get the best results from eyebrow transplantation, the following points should be followed.
