What is an Eyebrow Transplant?

An eyebrow transplant is a cosmetic surgery to make the eyebrows fuller and thicker. It involves extracting healthy hair follicles from the scalp and implanting them carefully in the areas where hairs are thinning. It is an effective and long-lasting treatment that can make the eyebrows more pronounced.

Eyebrows significantly affect the aesthetics of the face. They also have a medical purpose, i.e., diverting the moisture and sweat away from the eyes. People who’ve lost their eyebrow hair due to medical reasons, such as trichotillomania, alopecia areata, skin burns, injuries, etc., can get the treatment.

Who Can Benefit from Eyebrow Transplant?

Eyebrow transplant is a good option for both men and women who have experienced hair loss due to any of the following reasons- 

 

  • Burns to the eyebrow area 
  • Injury or scarring
  • Tumors 
  • Trichotillomania (a condition where people get an uncontrollable urge to pull out hairs)
  • Alopecia areata (an autoimmune condition that causes the hairs to fall out)
  • Hypothyroidism (loss of hair due to an underactive thyroid gland)
  • Hypervitaminosis A (hair loss caused due to toxic levels of vitamin A)

 

An individual need to consult a trichologist or a plastic surgeon to find out if he/she is eligible for an eyebrow transplant.

How to Prepare for an Eyebrow Transplant?

Before an eyebrow transplant, the patient needs to discuss his/her goals and expectations with the cosmetic or plastic surgeon. During the consultations, the doctor will- 

 

  • Examine the patient’s eyebrow and scalp growth to identify the donor hair grafts. 
  • Ask about the patient’s medical history, lifestyle, and medications taken by him/her on a regular basis. 
  • Advise about the potential side effects, risks, and complications of an eyebrow transplant. 
  • Explain other aspects of the treatment, including anesthesia used, benefits, procedure details, etc. 

 

Some specific instructions may also be given to the patient to prepare him/her for the surgery. The instructions include- 

 

  • Avoid drinking and smoking for at least 7 days before the surgery. 
  • Don’t take blood-thinning medications, steroids, or anti-inflammatory medications 3 days before the procedure. 
  • Limit sun exposure to the eyebrow and the scalp, i.e., the donor and recipient area, as it can damage the skin. 
  • Don’t cut or trim the hair in the donor and recipient areas. 
  • Eat a healthy breakfast on the day of surgery, and avoid drinking coffee and other caffeinated beverages, as they can cause jitters during the procedure. 
  • Wear loose and comfortable clothes that can be worn and removed easily. 
  • Avoid wearing any accessories or jewelry to the clinic/hospital, as they will be removed during the procedure. 

 

If any other precautions need to be taken before the treatment, the doctor or his/her team will instruct the patient accordingly.

What Happens During An Eyebrow Transplant?

The most common techniques used for an eyebrow transplant are FUE (follicular unit extraction) and DHI (direct hair implantation). Depending on the technique chosen, the procedure may vary slightly. 

 

The steps involved in the procedure are explained below- 

 

  • First, anesthesia is administered by the surgeon in the donor area to harvest healthy hair grafts. The donor area is made accessible by trimming the hair, and the desired eyebrow shape is created. 
  • The surgeon uses a punch device or scalpel to extract the hair grafts with precision. The hair grafts are placed separately in a chilled saline solution and arranged in the order they will be implanted. 
  • All hairs that need to be implanted are not extracted at once, as the out-of-body time of the follicles should be less than one hour. 
  • The surgeon uses an implanter device to implant the hair follicles in the eyebrow region. The hair growth direction and angle are also considered during the implantation. In some cases, a slit is made in the skin before implanting the hair follicles. 
  • Once all the grafts are implanted, the donor and recipient areas are cleaned and left open to heal. 

 

The entire procedure takes around 3 to 5 hours to complete. For some patients, the duration may be longer depending on the number of hairs that need to be implanted.

What to Expect After Eyebrow Transplant Surgery?

The patient can expect to feel slight discomfort, redness, bruising, and haziness right after the surgery. He/she is likely to feel disoriented due to the effects of anesthesia. Thus, it’ll be best for the patient to arrange a ride home.

As the surgery is performed on an outpatient basis, the patient is discharged the same day after giving a detailed post-surgery care guide. The next day, the treated area may start to swell up, and in the next few days, scabs or crusts may also start to form over the implanted follicles.

Potential Side Effects & Risks of Eyebrow Transplant

The potential side effects and risks of an eyebrow transplant include the following- 

 

  • In some cases, the transplanted hair follicles don’t take root in the skin, which causes patchy hair growth. 
  • The shape of the eyebrows may not be symmetrical after the surgery. 
  • Hair growth and texture might be different than natural eyebrow hairs. 
  • Infection may occur at the donor or recipient site. 
  • The implanted follicles may become inflamed and infected, leading to a condition called folliculitis. 
  • The bruising and swelling may persist for a long period. 

Benefits of Eyebrow Transplant

Getting an eyebrow transplant has the following benefits- 

 

  • Denser Eyebrows- Once the implanted hairs start to grow, the patient will have denser and thicker eyebrows that will enhance their facial features. 
  • Boost Self-Confidence- Both men and women with thin eyebrows often feel conscious about their appearance. Once they get the desired shape and density, their self-image will improve, which will further give them confidence. 
  • Minimally Invasive Procedure- The techniques used for an eyebrow transplant are minimally invasive. Hence, there is minimal blood loss, scarring, and risks associated with the treatment. 
  • Long-lasting Solution- Eyebrow transplant surgery results are long-lasting as it involves using healthy hair follicles that are likely to retain the ability to grow new hair for a very long time. Thus, the patient won’t have to rely on makeup products to make their eyebrows look denser and thicker. 
  • Natural Results- As the patient’s own hairs are used for the transplant, the color and texture of the implanted hairs match the eyebrow hairs. Thus, the results look completely natural. 

Recovery Timeline After Eyebrow Transplant

Recovery after an eyebrow transplant can take up to 4 to 6 weeks. The healing process after an eyebrow transplant is quicker than other hair transplant treatments. The patient will be able to resume normal activities within a week and all activities after several weeks. 

 

To ensure that the recovery is quick and smooth, the doctor will provide instructions, such as 

 

  • Take the prescribed antibiotics, anti-inflammatory medications, pain medications, steroids, etc., as directed by the doctor. 
  • Keep the donor and recipient area clean and dry. Use warm water and a soft cloth to clean the areas. 
  • Avoid touching the eyebrows completely, as it can increase the risks of infection in the recipient area. 
  • Wear bandages as advised and change them frequently as directed by the doctor or his/her team. 
  • Don’t wash your eyebrows without the doctor’s permission. It’s usually safe for the patients to wash their face and eyebrows after 5 to 7 days. 
  • Crusts or scabs will start to form over the implanted hairs within 5 to 10 days. Do not try to peel them off forcibly. They will start falling on their own after some time. 
  • Avoid engaging in strenuous activities until the donor and recipient areas have healed completely. 
  • Take regular follow-ups with the doctor to ensure there are no signs of post-op complications. 

 

It is crucial to follow the post-op care tips given by the doctor to get the best results and prevent post-surgery complications.

Results of Eyebrow Transplant

The final results of an eyebrow transplant can take around 3 to 9 months to appear. The results appear gradually over the months. 

 

  • Within 2 weeks after the surgery, the patient will experience shock loss, which is a natural process. The implanted hair will fall to make space for the new hair. 
  • The initial hair growth will become noticeable within 2 to 3 months, but the hair will be thin and very small. The hair will need proper nourishment during this period. Thus, the patient is advised to take a healthy diet and use products such as saline or silicone gel to promote hair growth. 
  • In 4 to 6 months, the hair growth will become noticeable, and the thickness will continue to improve. The scars on the eyebrow will also fade away and be covered by the hair. 
  • After 9 months, the eyebrow will become denser and thicker. The hair will still continue to grow, and the patient will be allowed to trim and style them as desired. 

Eyebrow Transplant Cost in India

The cost of an eyebrow transplant in India ranges from Rs. 6000 to Rs.30000. The overall cost of treatment varies for each patient depending on the following factors- 

  • The technique used for the transplant (FUE or DHI)
  • The city where the patient is getting treatment
  • Choice of the hospital (government or private, super-specialty or multi-specialty)
  • Anesthesia fee 
  • Surgeon’s consultation and operating fee 
  • The overall number of grafts
  • Post-surgery care and follow-up consultations 

As the treatment is purely cosmetic, it is not covered by health insurance under any circumstances. Thus, the patient has to cover the expenses personally.

FAQ

When can I resume work after getting an eyebrow transplant?

Generally, the patient can resume work after 5 days following the eyebrow transplant. If the patient’s work involves strenuous activities, the doctor may suggest waiting for 10 to 14 days before resuming work.

Does eyebrow transplant leave scars?

Eyebrow transplants are usually done using minimally invasive techniques, such as DHI and FUE. Thus, the scarring after the procedure is minimal. Over time, the scars heal, and their appearance will improve.

Is an eyebrow transplant better than microblading?

Eyebrow transplants are usually considered a better and superior method to get denser and thicker eyebrows. In microblading, color pigments are injected into the skin to create an appearance of thicker eyebrows, whereas, in eyebrow transplant, healthy hair follicles are implanted into the skin that can grow hair and provide natural-looking results that last for a long time.

Is it possible to combine PRP with an eyebrow transplant?

Yes, PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy is often combined with eyebrow transplant to provide better results. It encourages hair growth in the eyebrows and allows the skin to heal properly. You should know that if you choose to get PRP treatment with an eyebrow transplant, the overall treatment cost will also increase.

How many grafts are used for eyebrow transplants?

Typically, around 70 to 120 grafts are enough for an eyebrow transplant and to reconstruct them entirely. The number of grafts used will vary depending on specific requirements and the gender of the patient, as males often need more hair grafts than females.

Which hairs are used for eyebrow transplants?

Generally, donor hair grafts are taken from the area above the ears. Those hairs resemble the color and texture of the eyebrow to a great extent. Thus, they are the best choice for the treatment.

Can I avail No-Cost EMI service at Pristyn Care to get an eyebrow transplant?

Yes, you can avail No-Cost EMI service to cover the expense of an eyebrow transplant. The service allows the patient to divide the treatment expenses into smaller and easily payable installments.

The surgical implantation of the hair grafts provides long-lasting and natural results and rarely requires touch-ups. However, the results of other techniques are usually not satisfactory and require touch-ups.
