Eyebrow Transplant

Factors such as improper eyebrow plucking, dermatological diseases, injuries or burns can damage eyebrows, which are sensitive by nature, and cause them to thin. Eyebrow transplantation can be a good option in such cases. Before the operation, the eyebrow transplantation area is defined in a way that the patient wants and that best suits the other contours of the face, and the transplantation process is applied to this area.

Eyebrow transplantation may be a good option if the person has very thin eyebrows and is not satisfied with this situation or has lost their eyebrows for various reasons. For example, if a person starts plucking their eyebrows at a very young age, it can damage the hair follicles and cause permanent eyebrow loss. Eyebrow transplantation is a permanent solution to get thicker and fuller eyebrows.

The biggest advantage of eyebrow transplantation is that the new transplanted eyebrows will have a very natural appearance since they are taken from the person himself. The procedure will also limit the need for eyebrow makeup.

The recovery period for eyebrow transplantation is relatively fast. The individual should avoid heavy exercise for about 3 weeks after the operation, and if he/she sees any bleeding, swelling or discharge in the area, he/she should consult his/her doctor immediately.

The hair transplanted during transplantation will fall out after a few weeks. This is quite normal. The new eyebrow hairs will start to grow permanently within a few months.

Although rare, the most major complication of eyebrow transplantation is that the eyebrow skin does not accept the new hair follicles. In this case, the procedure may need to be repeated in the future. The eyebrow transplant procedure carries the same risks as any surgery. These risks include bleeding, infection, nerve damage, swelling and bruising.

Before the eyebrow transplant, the surgeon will minimize the risks by examining the person’s medical history and personal situation. For this reason, it is very important that the individual openly shares any medications and health conditions with the doctor.

For eyebrow transplantation to be successful, it must be performed in a sterile environment under expert supervision. It is a very reliable procedure when performed by a reliable and experienced specialist in a trusted clinic. However, it should be remembered that the reaction to this process will vary from person to person and the results will never be the same for two people.

Eyebrow transplantation with the FUE method offers advantages such as minimal pain and numbness in the postoperative period and a faster recovery period. The shorter recovery time compared to the FUT method means that sessions can be applied more frequently.

If the person does not want to have scars on the scalp after eyebrow transplantation and wants to return to his/her daily life faster, the FUE method is an ideal option. The procedure takes approximately 4 to 8 hours depending on the number of grafts and the size of the area to be transplanted.

Eyebrow transplantation with the FUE method takes 3 to 5 days to heal and the first results are seen within 3 to 4 months. However, it may take 9 months to a year and a half to see full results. The person should be patient in this process.
