Many men order eyebrow transplants. This service is fundamentally different from the usual extension, as the transplanted hair is taken from other parts of the body and continues to grow in a new place.
For what reasons do men resort to transplantation and what diseases provoke hair loss?
The essence of technology
Eyebrow transplantation is the transfer of hair from the donor area to the eyebrow area. The hairs take root and continue to grow as "their" eyebrows. The procedure allows both to restore completely missing eyebrows, and to give them the desired thickness, width and shape.
- Those who have in the eyebrow area there are scars and scars, devoid of hair.
- Those who have completely or partially lost eyebrows as a result of various diseases, chemical and other effects.
- Those who too long and vigorously plucked their eyebrows and thereby spoiled them, violated their growth.
- Those who have serious problems with the shape, width, thickness or symmetry of the eyebrows, which are difficult to fix in other ways.
- Those who want to change their eyebrows for aesthetic reasons.
The essence of transplantation
The essence of the hair transplant method is the redistribution of hair follicles from the donor area (occipital part of the head) to the eyebrow line, in order to correct or fully restore their natural boundaries.
Indications for hair transplantation are:
- loss of hair follicles as a side effect of chemotherapy,
- violation of the thickness of the hair, triggered by hormonal changes in the body or injuries,
- the lack of eyebrows as a result of an unsuccessful tattoo,
- violation of the natural line provoked by neurotic abnormalities (the problem of involuntary pulling of hair).
Contraindications
- Poor blood clotting.
- Allergies to painkillers such as lidocaine. And without local anesthesia, the procedure is quite problematic.
- Mental disorders associated with the desire of a person to pull hair on his body (trichotillomania).
- Diabetes.
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding period.
- Too pronounced rough scars in the eyebrow, as in this case, the probability of hair engraftment is very low.
- Autoimmune diseases of connective tissues, such as dermatomyositis, scleroderma and others.
Benefits
- Allows you to restore completely lost eyebrows, regardless of the reasons that led to this.
- Allows you to adjust the shape of the eyebrows, make them more attractive.
- If the shape of the transplanted eyebrows was chosen correctly, then it will not be necessary to spend much time on their correction.
- Does not require regular repetitions.
disadvantages
- The procedure is painful, although it is performed under local anesthesia. After surgery, the pain will be present for at least a few more days.
- There are a lot of contraindications.
- High price.
- Since transplantation is related to plastic surgery, it is quite difficult to make such a procedure.
- Complications may occur.
- It is necessary to wait long enough until the eyebrows take on a pleasant look, recover and begin to grow themselves.
- Eyebrows for a long time requires careful care.
Patchwork (strip method)
This method is currently considered obsolete and is used quite rarely. It consists in the surgical procedure of removing the defective skin area from the eyebrows and transferring another skin area taken from the donor area. Such a new skin area is fixed with the help of cosmetic sutures.
However, this method is rather complicated and not very effective. The transplanted area of the skin takes a long time to take root or may not settle down at all, the hair begins to grow only a few months after engraftment, and I myself lose the area of the transplanted skin due to damaged nerve endings. In addition, scars remain both in the eyebrow zone and in the donor zone, from which a fragment of the skin was taken.
Recently, this method has been improved - the skin area is not engrafted entirely, it is divided into small fragments (grafts), and then each of them is individually placed in the right place. However, many of the shortcomings of the method still remain.
However, only this way you can restore the hair on the eyebrows in cases when there is a large number of scars in the working area.
The video details the strip hair transplant.
Seamless Transplantation Technique (TFI)
This technique is less traumatic. Non-surgical way from the donor area is the removal of hair grafts. It usually takes one or two hair sacs. Then they are transferred to the incisions made in the eyebrow area and installed in them. Since the cuts are small, the seams do not overlap, because the aesthetics of the subsequent result is much higher. In addition, eyebrows quickly take root and begin to grow, without pain, swelling and loss of sensitivity.
This procedure is very painstaking, because this method of transplantation is much more expensive patchwork. But the result is much better.
HFE technique
This technique is currently the most common. Its popularity is determined by the fact that it is performed without surgical intervention, therefore, there are far fewer side effects and subsequent scars. Transplantation is carried out using very thin microtools, which allow you to very carefully remove hair follicles from the donor area, without damaging either the skin or nerve endings, and then just as carefully place them in the eyebrows, without making incisions. As a result, the eyebrows heal in a few days and quickly begin to grow.
The video shows the most popular and most popular method of eyebrow transplantation - HFE, the whole transplantation procedure and the instruments used.
What tools and materials are needed for the procedure?
The tools primarily depend on the method to be used. If we consider the currently most common method of HFE, then the set of tools and materials will be as follows:
- surgical marker for applying contours of future eyebrows and designation of the working area for transplantation,
- a set of microtools consisting of a punch and a needle implant,
- a microscope for selecting healthy hair follicles and counting grafts,
- lidocaine or other local anesthetic
- cleaning and disinfecting agents,
- special follicle treatment composition for better engraftment.
How is the procedure performed and how long does it take?
- There is a discussion of the desired shape of the eyebrows and their design. It is determined how many follicles will be required, from which site they will be taken.
- The eyebrow contours are drawn with a surgical marker, and the donor area is outlined.
- Work areas are disinfected, local anesthesia is done in the eyebrow area and in the donor area.
- With the help of micro tools from the donor zone, the required number of follicles is taken.
- Taken follicles are studied under a microscope, there is a selection of the right amount of the most healthy of them.
- Suitable hairs are treated with a special compound that will further facilitate their engraftment.
- In the area of the eyebrows, small punctures are made into which the follicles are placed with the help of special microtools. At the same time, they are placed so that the natural direction of hair growth and the angle of inclination are maintained.
How does the eyebrow heal after transplantation?
The healing process depends on the transplantation method used. If the HFE technique was used, the healing process is very fast. The first few days may be a slight redness in the eyebrows, swelling. Small crusts may form around each hair. All this passes in 5-7 days.
How to care for eyebrows after the procedure?
- Immediately after the procedure, eyebrows can not be wetted, but you must rinse them with special tools several times a day during the week.
- Once a day, apply a healing ointment on the eyebrows.
- The formed crusts cannot be peeled off. In addition, you should not scratch your eyebrows.
- During the week you should avoid intense physical exertion, work in the slope, be exposed to heat.
- In the future, eyebrows should be regularly combed, if necessary, laid with the help of the gel, and also cut with nail scissors.
What complications can occur?
- Prolonged reddening of the skin in the eyebrow area, severe edema, bruising.
- Weak growth of transplanted hair or not at all in some areas.
- Inflammation, long healing of wounds around the hairs.
- Infection due to an inaccurate procedure or poor quality care.
What are the alternative options for hair restoration on the eyebrows?
- Eyebrows (not very comfortable and reliable, do not tolerate moisture, you need to stick them regularly).
- Hair extension (not suitable for regular and long-term use, the effect does not last too long).
- The application of various means of stimulating hair growth (not always effective, will not help, for example, to grow eyebrows after chemotherapy or at the site of a scar).
In addition, you can use eyebrow stamps, semi-permanent eyebrow restoration, hair tattooing, microblading, however, these methods do not restore eyebrow hairs, they are only imitate.
Eyebrow transplantation - A complex and difficult method of eyebrow repair. It can be effective even in cases where all other methods do not work or are contraindicated, and allows you to once and for all get beautiful eyebrows. But they will still need regular care.
Eyebrow hair transplant indications
Eyebrow hair transplantation may be needed for various reasons. The simplest of them is frequent plucking of hairs. Men are addicted to this procedure much less frequently than women. But they also want to give their eyebrows a beautiful shape. As a result, hair follicles are depleted, and hairs stop growing.
Another reason for eyebrow hair transplants are internal diseases. For example, when a person is under severe stress, telogen alopecia can develop. In this state, the hairs stop growing normally and quickly fall out. Their growth is restored only after a few months.
A more complex picture is observed in the case of normal alopecia, an autoimmune disease in which follicles are destroyed by the immune system. In this case, transplantation is performed along with hormone therapy. The same can be said about the loss associated with hypothyroidism. With a lack of thyroid hormones, hair falls out not only on the head, but also on the eyebrows.
Mention should also be made of the hair transplant for scars. It is especially relevant among athletes, because they most often have scars from cuts after fights. In addition, men seek transplantation with scars resulting from burns or other effects. In each case, different transplant methods can be used.
The result of eyebrow transplantation for a man is 400 grafts using the FUE method:
Eyebrow Hair Transplant Techniques
Eyebrow hair transplantation is performed by one of three methods:
- manual FUE,
- machine fue machine
- manual way fut.
With the manual FUE method, a section with hair is shaved on the head, after which the surgeon collects hair follicles for transplantation. This is the least invasive method of transplantation. In contrast, the FUT technique requires cutting the skin to extract hair follicles. Then seams are applied to the damaged area.
When using the FUE machine technique, a specialist works with a punch machine. With the help of this machine, thin skin sections are cut off and then cut into grafts for eyebrow transplants. Such grafts are called grafts. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and does not leave large scars. But it has several drawbacks:
- inability to re-transplant,
- the remaining scars on the head that will need to be covered with neighboring hair,
- a large number of lost follicles (due to coarser cutting than manual),
- poor survival of damaged follicles,
- difference between the growth of regrown eyebrows from natural.
Therefore, the manual FUE method is considered the most effective and minimally invasive. But each person chooses the method that suits him best, since the price of eyebrow transplants and the final result depend on it.
Having determined the methodology, the doctor chooses a donor area. As a rule, hair for transplantation is taken from the head (from the back). But if this is not possible, the surgeon can take grafts from other parts of the skin. They are selected according to the thickness of the hair. Transplantation of grafts from one eyebrow to another is also practiced if the client has partial hair loss on one eyebrow. In each case, it is necessary to correctly determine the number of transplants.
How many grafts do you need for eyebrow transplantation?
The number of grafts is determined during the consultation. The surgeon considers the shape of the eyebrows and the depth of the problem. For example, hair transplantation for burns is a complete restoration of the eyebrows, each of which will require 400-500 transplants.
The result of transplanting 300 grafts on the eyebrows of a girl (150 grafts for each eyebrow):
If the client does not have 1/2 of the hair, too few eyebrows, a small scar, or he needs a form correction, the surgeon will need far fewer grafts. On average, it is 50-100 grafts for each eyebrow. The cost of the procedure will depend on the number of transplants and the complexity of the procedure.
The price of eyebrow transplants in different clinics
Hair prices in Moscow vary from a few thousand to a few tens of thousands of rubles. The same procedure in the HLC clinic in Turkey will cost 2.7 euros for each graft. In total, the client will need to pay from 150 euros, depending on the required number of transplants.
Preparation for surgery
Before a transplant of donor hair follicles, the client must visit a transplantologist. In an interview with a specialist, the following points are discussed:
- from which plots donor grafts will be removed,
- how many hairs contain individual follicular units (grafts),
- cost of operation
- desired bending line.
During the discussion, the doctor must draw the future line of eyebrows. Just discussing a possible result is not enough.
Important! The client must visually assess the result of the transplant before the operation.
Also standard blood tests for HIV, hepatitis, Rh, and allergy tests are conducted. Blood pressure is measured.
Ten days before the operation, the patient must refrain from smoking and taking alcohol, stop medication.
Procedure
A hair transplant takes several hours and follows a well-defined algorithm:
- The doctor takes measurements, designs and sketches a future eyebrow. Calculates the required number of follicular associations. The donor area is determined.
- The areas designated by the marker are disinfected and treated with an anesthetic preparation.
- With the help of micro tools from the donor area, the skin is taken with hair follicles. To ensure maximum survival rate (97%), grafts are treated with special compounds.
- On the previously drawn line, small punctures are made into which the selected hair follicles are placed. In the process of transplantation, the natural direction of hair growth and its angle of inclination are preserved.
Postoperative period
In the first days after transplantation, the patient may experience headaches, itching and burning in the area of the transplant. Redness and swelling of transplanted grafts are possible. Such the side effects are not very pronounced and disappear in five to seven days.
During the first month, transplanted grafts take root completely. Two months after surgery, the hair growth process is restored.
Care rules
The following recommendations will help speed up the recovery process after a transplant operation:
- A special gel will help to intensify the growth of the implanted hairs from a natural angle. It is applied every morning to the transplanted grafts in gentle movements using cotton buds.
- You can correct the length of hairs using nail clippers.
- In the first seven days after the operation, it is worthwhile to limit visits to saunas, swimming pools.
Attention! It is strictly forbidden to rub, pull hairs or comb them against growth.
Eyebrow hair transplant
Some women who hear the phrase “hair transplant on the eyebrows” make skeptical facial expressions, suggesting that this is a fiction procedure. The other half are aware of this procedure, but without knowing all the details, this idea is discarded for later. We will reveal and tell all the subtleties and stages of the procedure.
Eyebrow hair transplant
The first step is to find a suitable clinic and doctor. The main caveat is to find not only a qualified transplant doctor, but that he had an artistic look and a sense of taste. High-quality transplantation is 50% of success, because there must be a correct bend, natural density and an understanding of your facial proportions. Therefore, we advise you not to take risks and not to do the procedures at reduced prices.
Before surgery, you must make sure that if the cause of hair loss was a disease, then it is already cured.
Hair from the ear zone or around the neck is used for eyebrow transplantation; it is the thinnest and most suitable for this purpose.
To date, there are 3 methods of eyebrow transplantation:
- Strip - with this method, skin grafts with several hair bulbs are used for transplanting. Grafts are cut out of these patches and transplanted to the required area. New hair take root and begin to grow in the period from 2 weeks to a month.
- Fue - with this technology, a special machine-punch removes hairs and inserts into the prepared holes in the eyebrow area. This method is easier than Strip, but still is not considered minimally invasive. Today, almost all clinics perform transplantation using the FUE method. And at one time you can transplant a greater number of stamps than with the usual procedure.
- HFE is a more delicate procedure, with a fast recovery period. The hairs are extracted manually using a special micro tool and then transplanted. This is a seamless transplantation method; using it eliminates the possibility of scar formation and reduces the time to rehabilitation. With this method, the growth of new hair begins within a week.
HFE transplantation technology is also used for eyelash transplantation. This procedure is somewhat more expensive than eyebrow transplantation, but the effect is excellent.
Eyebrow Transplantation Stages
- The first stage is the design of the eyebrows. Here the doctor together with the client draws the ideal form, possible thickness and hair growth. Calculate the required number of stamps. On average, from 50 to 200 stamps are required, with no more than 2 hairs in one.
- The second stage is an examination. You will need to go through a small list of tests in order to assess your overall health.
- The third stage is directly the operation itself hair transplantation in the eyebrow. Produced fence donor hairs, stamps. After removal, the hairs are processed with a special compound to increase their life expectancy. Micro incisions are made on the skin where each grift is placed at the required angle. During the entire procedure, the doctor repeatedly checks all the transplanted hairs in order to achieve the ideal shape and correct angle. With a perfectly performed operation, the result is visible almost immediately. Usually, this procedure is performed under local anesthesia and takes from 2 to 4 hours.
- The fourth stage is the recovery stage, depending on the method of the procedure, it may be different. Consider the average condition after surgery. There is a slight swelling, it is normal and from 5 to 7 days it completely disappears. Bruises may appear under the eyes, which is also an element of the norm. During this period, it is important to strictly follow all instructions of the doctor and regularly attend examinations.

The process of engraftment of hairs is quite individual, it can take up to 3 - 5 months. As soon as the hairs begin to grow, you must begin to send them a special gel and a brush. Sometimes it is necessary to trim them, it depends on the area from which the hair was taken.
It happens that one procedure is not enough for clients, then after 4-6 months a correction is made. These details are discussed at a preliminary consultation and depend on the initial condition of the eyebrows.

And by the way, where would this hair be transplanted - you can shave it. For example, I often see Armenian girls with beautiful eyebrows, but obviously trimmed from excessive shaggyness. BUT it is many times better than tattoo on bald skin (where the eyebrows should be). This is really hard. IMHO.

Girls, you can make eyebrows thick castor or almond oil (and often even on scars). And transplanted bulbs can really behave unpredictable. Hair transplantation is a waste of money.

I want to discuss with you a tool that helped me - it is Hair Serum from I C - Lab. Maybe someone tried it too? Description of the manufacturer: the complex consists of seven sera of unique composition. An individual combination of serums is selected for each client after testing the scalp. The complex is nourishing and regenerating, designed for damaged, dull, dry, dyed hair. After 2-3 weeks, when the scalp will undergo the entire cycle of application of the serum complex, the result will be particularly impressive. Let's start with the fact that the serum should be applied on a dry and clean skin of the head and in a certain order (that is, you take the bottle from the box from left to right and apply it to the head on the skin). Because I wash my head in the evening, it was easier for me to use them, and then imagine that you washed your head in the morning, dried it and it turns out that it should be moistened with serum again - it all takes a long time. None of the serums smell like anything, they differ only in color and direction (nourishing for food, etc.). Feels and action, I can say that I seemed to be putting water on my head. After the entire course of use (two boxes of seven bottles), no negative effects were noted. Hair became more silky and shiny, loss (thank God!) Has stopped!
My rating is Four with a plus!
During the growing, I cut my hair with hot scissors, as a result, they almost ceased to split :-). Another alternated gelatin hair mask with burdock oil. For the year has grown by 18cm
Indications for eyebrow transplantation
The desire to please another is a natural reaction of each person. However, the presence of certain defects in the appearance can cause isolation, depression and psychological instability.
Hair loss is the main cause of eyebrow transplantation. This problem is caused by a number of disorders in the human body, the impact of which affects the appearance. Any mechanical damage (injuries, burns) can be a reason to turn to a plastic surgeon for aesthetic correction of the shape of the eyebrows. There are the following indications for transplantation:
- loss of a significant area due to hormonal changes, injury,
- hair loss due to chemotherapy,
- psychological uncertainty after eyebrow loss:
- baldness due to poor-quality tattoo,
- neurotic abnormalities that are associated with involuntary pulling of hair,
- the presence of scars or scars.
Transplantation is performed only after removing the cause of the hair follicle. Otherwise, the operation will be useless. The loss of the natural beauty of the eyebrows is due to the following:
- changes in the body during pregnancy,
- nervous breakdowns
- malnutrition,
- use of cheap cosmetics,
- damage to hair follicles due to aggressive plucking.
Preparation for the procedure
Before surgery, a standard blood test is taken to identify the following diseases: HIV, genital infections, hepatitis. It is also necessary to determine the presence of allergic reactions to analgesics.
In the process of preparing for the procedure, special attention is paid to patients with high blood pressure. During eyebrow transplantation, sometimes bleeding occurs, which can adversely affect the result. Two weeks before the transplantation, it is recommended to stop smoking completely. The use of tobacco products can significantly slow down the process of hair restoration.
Eyebrow hair transplant technique
The first stage is the design of the necessary line of eyebrows. The decision on the desired density, the form is taken together with the patient. Hair is removed from the back of the neck, behind the ears. The structure of the follicle in such places is thin, suitable for eyebrows.
The operation is performed using local anesthesia. For accurate results, contours are pre-applied. To control this process, the patient is given a special mirror. There are three brow brows:
- Surgical method. With a scalpel cut out the skin with donor material.
- FUE way. To collect the desired hairs, use a special device with rotating piercers. They allow you to remove material from the desired area behind the ears or on the back of the neck. It should be remembered that after such a procedure can remain scars.
- Microtube. First cut a small area on the back of his head. Then, using a special device, remove healthy follicles.
The selected material before transplanting is treated with a solution. This allows you to speed up the process of hair restoration. Small punctures are applied to the surface of the eyebrows at such an angle that they subsequently grow in a natural direction. Then they put the selected grafts (hair follicles). Such jewelry work requires real professionalism from a specialist.
For information on eyebrow transplantation, see this video:
How many grafts are transplanted
The amount of material required depends on the scale of the surgical procedure. On average, 350 grafts are used to correct the entire brow area. The minimum quantity for shape and density correction is 50 - 100 pieces.
The procedure takes place within 2 to 3 hours. If desired, the transplant can be repeated 4 to 6 months after full recovery. However, at the first consultation, the required number of grafts is precisely determined to obtain the desired result.
Recovery and care after
Compliance with all postoperative recommendations contributes to the successful engraftment of donor material. Itching and a slight burning sensation are normal conditions after surgery.
During this period, it is necessary to refrain from touching any eyebrows. Mechanical damage or combing hair provokes their loss. The result can be assessed immediately after transplantation.
For hair growth at a natural angle, you must use a special gel. To control the length, you need to carefully use nail scissors. During the recovery period it is necessary to adhere to the following recommendations:
- come to the doctor regularly for control,
- refuse to take hot baths,
- Any effects that may damage the new eyebrows, increase puffiness are prohibited.
- you must gently rinse the area the next morning after surgery,
- apply ointment to improve tissue regeneration.
Possible complications
All sorts of problems after transplantation arise as a result of patient neglect. If you ignore the recommendations of the doctor during the recovery period of the eyebrow surface, then the following consequences may occur:
- scarring of tissues
- presence of seams,
- hair loss,
- infection and inflammation of skin areas,
- loss of sensation.
Procedure cost
The price of the issue will depend on the qualifications of the doctor, the popularity of the clinic, the region of the country. The average cost of a graft transplant is 70 - 150 p. Full transplantation will cost from 10 to 60 thousand rubles. It is important to carefully study all information about the clinic in order to prevent possible negative consequences as a result of the lack of professionalism of a specialist.
Alternative eyebrow hair restoration
You can save the natural beauty of your body without surgery, if you take care of the condition of the body. There are many alternative ways to activate the restoration of the eyebrow surface. For effectiveness, you must follow the following rules:
- Regular care. It is necessary to carefully pull out the hair, be sure to remove makeup before going to bed, wash with warm water and massage eyebrows regularly. The use of special masks has a beneficial effect on the structure of the follicles.
- Rejection of bad habits. The use of alcohol-containing and tobacco products contributes to early baldness. A healthy lifestyle tones the body and reflects on the person's appearance.
- Proper nutrition. The body requires a sufficient number of active substances for the normal functioning of all internal systems.
Alternative methods can prevent surgery.
Semi-permanent eyebrow repair
The essence of the procedure is to treat the surface of the skin with a special solution. The basis of the drug consists of a color pigment, glue and silicone. Using a brush, an elastic solution is applied to the eyebrows. Sometimes artificial hairs are used to create the required volume. The advantages of this method are as follows:
- the procedure is quick,
- no spaces
- effective correction of asymmetric shape,
- the composition is long held on the surface of the eyebrows.
However, the procedure is not suitable for each type of hair, requires additional care afterwards. There may also be discomfort after applying the solution. Non-professionalism of a beautician can lead to negative consequences.
Folk remedies
Home techniques can help in restoring eyebrow hair. However, this process will last for a long period. It is recommended to use the following tools:
- Chamomile mask. The healing properties of the plant have a beneficial effect on hair growth. It is necessary to prepare the tincture and make regular compresses.
- Oil Cocktail Promotes bulb regeneration. The mask tones the skin surface, improves the structure of the follicle.
- Carrot Juice Vitamin complex, which is contained in the vegetable, helps prevent baldness.
- Tincture of calendula. Inexpensive technique for a long time allows you to achieve a certain effect without surgery.
Eyebrow transplantation is a safe way to change your appearance, get rid of psychological insecurity and isolation. Proper care after surgery ensures the desired result. In order to prevent premature loss, you should get rid of a number of bad habits and properly care for your hair.
What is the procedure: general information
The operation is considered to be a very delicate, almost jewelry work, as it does not allow inaccuracies and blunders. Its essence boils down to the following: the appealed patient is first given a suitable eyebrow shape, and then the missing hair is transplanted from one place to another. In this case, the client acquires thick eyebrows or simply changes their shape.
According to experts, during this operation only hair follicles are used, which (depending on the condition of the damaged eyebrow area) will require an average of 50-350 pieces.
Transplantation is performed with very thin lancets and a small amount of local anesthetic. It lasts 2-3 hours.
Who should resort to transplantation?
Eyebrow transplantation is performed not only when you want to improve your appearance, but also in case it is really necessary. For example, there is a specific case in which, out of curiosity, one woman looked under the gas column when the wick was set on fire. At this time there was a slight gas leak, and when a spark occurred, a fire occurred faster than usual. As a result, the flame released to freedom burned the eyebrows of the girl. According to her, there was practically nothing in their place.
The second case occurred with another girl who decided to lighten her precious “strings” by all means and strongly burned them with a low-grade cosmetic. As a result, the grief experimenter received a burn, due to which the hair on the eyebrows stopped growing (at the place where the skin surface was broken).
And the third representative of the fair sex as a child fell from the swing, severely breaking an eyebrow. After doctors sewed it up, a scar appeared at the hair growth site. Hair transplant on the eyebrows helped to solve this problem.
As you can see, you can be interested in eyebrow hair restoration in the following cases:
- if there is complete or partial hair loss,
- if transplantation is necessary to mask the unattractive consequences of injuries and defects (if there are scars).
In what other cases need a hair transplant?
In addition to the above reasons, eyebrow transplantation will be necessary after the patient undergoes radio and chemotherapy (after which hair loss is often observed not only on the eyebrows, but also on the head). Hair loss can result from aggressive and regular vegetation removal with tweezers. Over time, this leads to disruption of structure and growth, as well as to partial loss of eyebrows (hair stops growing at the treatment site).
And finally, impaired hair growth and hair loss can be associated with the presence of somatic illness, with an unbalanced diet, and even with nervous exhaustion.
What is the procedure sequence?
The process of eyebrow transplantation itself occurs according to the following principle:
- First, the doctor determines the donor area and the number of follicles used,
- then anesthesia of the donor site and the final transplant site is performed,
- removal of skin particles with healthy follicles from the transplant area is performed,
- the obtained hairs are treated with a special solution that promotes faster healing and improves the survival of donor grafts,
- small cuts or incisions are made on the skin of the eyebrows
- donor hair is placed in the incisions.
But what happens after the eyebrow transplant is complete? Patient reviews will help us answer this question.
What are the first sensations after surgery?
The feeling that the patient receives after surgery, as a rule, can only be understood by people who have undergone a similar procedure. Some opinions will still help the reader to become aware of the consequences immediately after transplantation. So, some of the patients write that they had redness and swelling in the area of hair transplantation. Moreover, these unattractive phenomena persisted for about a week. Then the swelling and inflammation gradually disappeared.
Other patients say that for some time they experienced mild pain in the eyebrows. They also had a headache. However, all the ailments passed after 6-7 days.
What hair is most suitable for transplantation?
According to experts, eyebrow transplantation is carried out using hair follicles taken from the area behind the ears or the neck (the back of the head). Moreover, only follicles that contain no more than 1-2 hairs are suitable for surgery.
If the hair on the head is too thin, then use vegetation from the body for transplantation.
What extra care is needed?
According to the surgeons, for some time the transplanted hair needs extra care. For example, after the operation, patients should come to the doctors for dressing, avoid thermal effects, and also not work in the tilt (this can cause the appearance of edema).
In addition, the hair on the new eyebrows must be initially combed with a gel and a comb. And as the hairs grow, they will need to be cut periodically (in particular, this applies to hair removed from the back of the head).
