How Does The Eyebrow Transplant Procedure Work?
An eyebrow restoration procedure generally involves a detailed consultation to determine the patient’s goals and condition. The process is as detailed herein.
This is the first process, in which our hair transplant doctor evaluates your eyebrows, discusses aesthetic goals, and develops a plan. This ensures realistic expectations; this stage deduces what the patient should expect from the surgery. Moreover, the patient’s medical records and overall health are discussed to ensure everything must ensure the best possible outcome.
For the extraction of the donor hairs, hairs from the back of the scalp are used because the texture of these hairs usually matches the patient’s own eyebrows. The process depends a lot on the extraction method – FUE or FUT – to be used. In the first case, INDIVIDUAL follicles are removed directly while in the second method, a strip of skin is dissecting into grafts. The easier process depends a lot on the patient’s own hair characteristic and the actual hair density.
The extracted follicles are carefully prepared under a microscope to ensure the grafts are sound, viable and ready for implantation. Each follicle is gradually and correctly trimmed to ensure it suits the eyebrow. The purpose of this process is to get the highest rate of the successful transplant because the prepared hair is more likely to grow within the eyebrow area correctly.
To create the grafting site, incisions are made in the eyebrow area. The incisions and the angle of origin and the incision levels all are arranged in the natural growth position of the growing eyebrow. This is an important stage as it requires the result to be symmetrical and completely horizontal. Therefore, the specialist requires skillful techniques to graduate the hair follicles effectively.
The prepared grafts are transplanted into the eyebrow area again to suit their natural growth position. The process also requires a high level of expertise and skill to suit the new eyebrows and implant them correctly. Each graft is implanted very individually, and the final stage requires a lot of skills to choose the correct density to ensure the implanting process.
Post-procedure, patients may experience swelling and redness. Detailed aftercare instructions are provided to ensure smooth healing. Follow-up appointments are arranged to track progress and ensure the grafts integrate well. Patients receive guidance on caring for their new eyebrows and understanding the healing process to achieve the best outcomes.
