Eyebrow Transplant at TopClinic

What Is an Eyebrow Transplant?

Just like scalp hair loss, eyebrow hair loss is a common concern for many individuals. A natural eyebrow transplant is a cosmetic procedure designed to restore eyebrow density in cases of thinning or complete hair loss. The process involves transferring hair follicles from the donor area (usually the back of the scalp) to the eyebrow region, ensuring that the new hair complements the shape and structure of the face.

Eyebrow transplants are nearly identical to hair transplants, but can also be influenced by fashion trends. In some cases, individuals may opt for thicker eyebrows even if their natural brows are not overly thin, driven by aesthetic preferences.

Technique for Eyebrow Transplant

Top Clinic connects patients with providers who use advanced techniques to ensure successful eyebrow transplants. The most common method is:

DHI Technique (Direct Hair Implantation):

This modern method involves using Choi pens to precisely implant hair follicles, providing natural-looking density and direction that aligns with the existing eyebrow shape. Each selected follicle contains a single hair to achieve optimal, natural results. Through Top Clinic’s health tourism services, patients can access specialists skilled in this technique for effective eyebrow restoration.

Who Is a Candidate for Eyebrow Transplant?

Eyebrow transplants are suitable for both men and women. Ideal candidates include:

• Individuals aged 18 or older.
• Those experiencing thinning or loss of eyebrow hair.
• Those who have completely lost their eyebrows.
• Individuals seeking cosmetic enhancement for fuller or reshaped eyebrows.

Pre-Procedure Tips for Eyebrow Transplant

To ensure a smooth and successful eyebrow transplant procedure, patients should follow these recommendations:

• Avoid blood-thinning substances like green tea and multivitamins (especially those containing vitamins A and E).
• Refrain from smoking for one month to promote healthy blood flow.
• Avoid stimulants for at least two weeks before the procedure.
• Maintain a balanced diet to reduce the risk of complications.
• Avoid medications with blood-thinning properties.

Stages of Eyebrow Transplant

Clinical Examination:

The doctor examines the eyebrow area to determine how many follicles are needed (typically between 50 to 350). The donor area is also assessed to ensure compatibility.

Medical Tests:

Blood and skin tests are conducted to ensure there are no underlying issues that might interfere with the transplant.

Follicle Harvesting:

A small portion of the donor area is shaved, and individual follicles containing one hair each are selected using a micromotor.

Eyebrow Transplantation:

Using the Choi Pen, the doctor implants the follicles into the eyebrow area. Channels are opened, and follicles are inserted at the appropriate depth and angle to ensure natural growth and density.

Post-Procedure Tips for Eyebrow Transplant

Aftercare is essential for achieving the desired results. Patients should adhere to the following instructions after their eyebrow transplant:

• Avoid washing the treated area for 72 hours.
• Refrain from smoking for at least two months.
• Limit exposure to direct sunlight, heat, and high humidity for a month; use a medical cap when outside.
• Keep the head elevated for at least three days to reduce swelling.
• Take the prescribed medications and painkillers as directed by the doctor.
• Avoid Turkish baths and saunas for one month.
• Sleep with your head elevated using two pillows to prevent swelling.
• Avoid rain and dust to protect the newly transplanted follicles.
• Refrain from swimming in the sea for three months and in pools for two months.
• Be cautious when dressing to avoid contact with the transplanted area.

Recommendations for Optimal Results

Post-procedure treatments can strengthen the implanted follicles and promote faster growth. Recommended treatments include:

PRP (Plasma) treatments: To enhance the growth of transplanted follicles.

Medical serums: Often vitamin-based, prescribed by the doctor to stimulate growth.
