FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT IS AN EYEBROW TRANSPLANT?
An eyebrow transplant is a procedure where hair follicles are transplanted from one part of your body (usually the scalp) to the eyebrow area to create fuller, more defined eyebrows.
WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR AN EYEBROW TRANSPLANT?
Ideal candidates are individuals with thin or sparse eyebrows due to genetics, over-plucking, aging, or medical conditions. It's also suitable for those who have lost eyebrows due to trauma or burns.
HOW LONG DOES THE PROCEDURE TAKE?
The procedure typically takes 3-4 hours, depending on the number of grafts required.y
IS THE PROCEDURE PAINFUL?
Local anesthesia is used, so you should not feel any pain during the procedure. Some discomfort or swelling may occur post-procedure, which typically subsides within a few days.
WHEN CAN I SEE THE RESULTS?
Initial results can be seen within a few weeks, but full results are usually visible after 3-4 months as the transplanted hairs begin to grow.
ARE THE RESULTS PERMANENT?
Yes, the results are permanent. The transplanted hairs will continue to grow naturally, just like the rest of your hair.
WHAT IS THE RECOVERY TIME?
Most patients can return to their normal activities within 2-3 days. Full recovery and optimal results are typically seen within 6 months.
WILL I NEED A TOUCH-UP PROCEDURE?
In some cases, a touch-up procedure may be recommended to achieve the best possible results, but most patients are satisfied with their results after the initial transplant.
WHAT ARE THE RISKS OR SIDE EFFECTS?
As with any procedure, there are potential risks, including infection, scarring, or an uneven appearance. However, these risks are minimal when the procedure is performed by a skilled specialist.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FUE AND FUT?
FUE involves extracting individual hair follicles, while FUT involves removing a strip of skin with hair follicles, which is then dissected into individual grafts. Both methods are effective, and the choice between them depends on your hair type, desired outcome, and other factors discussed during your consultation.
WILL THE TRANSPLANTED HAIRS LOOK NATURAL?
Yes, the transplanted hairs will be carefully placed to mimic the natural direction and angle of your existing eyebrow hair, resulting in a natural and aesthetically pleasing look.
