Eyebrow Transplant

Eyebrows and eyes are one of the pillars of facial beauty and can play an important role in showing a fresh or tired face. Thick, thin, crescent and striped eyebrows each give a special look to the eyes and can show the face differently. Eyebrows are also involved in showing old or young face. But there are many people who have very low back or no model eyebrows and like to have beautiful natural eyebrows without the need for pencil or tattoo. Eyebrow implants are the best option for these people and if done correctly, it can give people natural beauty. Eyebrows play two roles on the face:

  • Facial beautification: Eyebrows give personality and feeling to the face. The freshness of the eyes, the tiredness and the sadness of the face are highly dependent on the eyebrows. Eyebrows make the face feel.
  • Eye protection: Eyebrows prevent foreign agents such as water droplets and sweat from entering the eyes. Water entering the eyes causes blurred vision and this function of the eyebrows plays an important role in eye health. In addition, the eyebrows, along with the lashes, act as a filter against direct sunlight and prevent the eyes from being damaged by sunlight.

Each eyebrow hair falls out on average once every 4 months and new hair is replaced. Many people do not have eyebrow regrowth for various reasons, and this causes the eyebrow hair to become thinner. From the 1970s onwards, people tended to have thicker, striped, and more regular eyebrows, and again the eyebrows became wider over time, to the point that by 2020 many people will have only a small amount under their eyebrows. And by arranging them upwards, they give a more natural look to the eyebrows.

The most important causes of drooping eyebrows

  • Skin Diseases: Loss of eyelashes and eyebrows can be caused by dermatitis or skin diseases. Atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, telogen effluvium, sclerosis (skin ulcers that kill hair follicles), and other skin conditions can cause drop eyebrows and eyelashes are involved. Stress and neurological problems are also diseases that play a role in eyebrow loss.
  • Internal problems and diseases: Some internal diseases such as hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, hormonal disorders, iron and vitamin deficiencies and infectious diseases are other causes of eyebrow loss. Although hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism affect drooping eyebrows, not all people with hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism have drooping eyebrows. People with hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism usually experience hair loss or thinning eyebrows on the outer edge or outer third of the eyebrows.
  • Aging
  • Physical factors: External factors such as burns, injuries from physical trauma and accidents, chemical agents and eyebrow removal cause the hair follicles to be destroyed forever and eyebrows to fall out.
  • Nutritio: Improper eating habits and consumption of junk food are involved in hair loss, including eyebrow hair loss.

What is Eyebrow Implantation?

This procedure, which is performed under local anesthesia, usually selects the back of the head as the donor area, but other areas can also be suitable and selected for hair donation. The process of eyebrow implantation is effective if it is placed in the right angle and direction and the hair follicles are beautiful and in good condition after growth. The goal is to see the position, appearance and high density of the hair at the end.

One of the most important steps for eyebrow implantation to have a favorable result is the doctor’s attention to the angle of eyebrow implantation. Eyebrow implant angle is designed with great care and eyebrow hair transplantation should be done in exactly the same direction and angle to achieve a natural and desirable appearance.

Before the eyebrow implant angle is designed by the doctor, the patient needs to determine the new shape and form of the eyebrows. Also, the thickness of the new eyebrows should be clear so that no mistakes are made during the removal and transfer of hair follicles and a sufficient number of hair grafts should be used.

Good Candidate for Eyebrow Transplant

  • People who have congenitally low back eyebrows or no eyebrows at all;
  • People who have lost part of their eyebrows due to injury;
  • People who have a good hair bank on different parts of their body (especially on the back);
  • People who are aware of and expect somewhere from eyebrow implants and natural eyebrows, not just the beauty of the work;

  • People who have lost their eyebrows due to aging and would like to have natural and beautiful eyebrows again;
  • People who face the problem of asymmetry in their eyebrows.

It is recommended that people under the age of 22 refrain from having eyebrow implants until the final shape of their eyebrows is determined after this age.

  • Normalization of eyebrow condition;
  • Eyebrow hair growth and unstable shape;
  • Get rid of the worry of drawing a pencil on the eyebrows and don’t worry about clearing it in different situations;
  • Increase the beauty and charm of the face.

Complications of eyebrow transplantation

Eyebrow implants can have dangerous side effects if not done by the best dermatologist, hair and beauty doctor and the doctor is not skilled and careful in his work. But this method, like all other cosmetic procedures, can have temporary side effects, which include:

  • Very slight swelling and bruising;
  • Minor wound in the implant area;
  • Redness in the eyebrow area;
  • Plantation scaling;
  • Inflammation of hair follicles in the implant area;
  • Temporary shedding in the donation area;
  • Relieves itching in the implant or donation area for 1 or 2 days as prescribed with an ointment;
  • The slightest pain that will be relieved with painkillers prescribed by your doctor.

These side effects are normal and temporary. But there are some complications that are caused by the lack of expertise of the doctor and cause many problems for the person. Risks of eyebrow implantation by non-specialist include:

  • Unpleasant and abnormal appearance of eyebrows;
  • Asymmetry of eyebrows;
  • The difference in color of implanted eyebrows with natural eyebrows;
  • Risk of bleeding after eyebrow implantation;
  • Infection after eyebrow implantation;
  • Permanent anesthesia in the implant area.

Eyebrow Transplant Methods

  • Eyebrow implantation by FUE/FIT method: FUE or FIT stands for Follicular Unit Extraction, in which, like the same method in hair transplantation, the follicles are extracted separately. In other words, in this method, the best dermatologist and hair specialist for eyebrow transplantation does not make any incisions on the skin of the area, but separates the required grafts individually and connects them to the desired area.

Advantages of FUE/FIT USS method in Eyebrow implantation

  1. High planting delicacy;
  2. The invasiveness of this planting method;
  3. Very little pain and bleeding.

 

Disadvantages of the FUE/FIT method in Eyebrow implantation

  1. Possibility of damaging the hair bank due to surgical delicacy (if the surgery is performed by a non-specialist);
  2. Long planting time;
  3. The cost of planting is relatively higher than other methods.

 

  • Natural eyebrow implantation by FUT/FUSS method: One of the most invasive methods in eyebrow implantation is FUT method. This method is obsolete because it is associated with a lot of bleeding. In this procedure, the doctor makes strip cuts on the hair bank; That is, the specialist removes a strip of 1 to 2 cm from the applicant’s hair bank to remove the follicles needed for the eyebrows. The incision area is then sutured. After thorough examination of the strip removed from the scalp under a very strong microscope and removal of hair follicles, the transplant is performed to the desired area.

Pre-Operative Care of Eyebrow Transplant

  • From 1 week before surgery, stop taking medications such as aspirin, vitamin B and vitamin E. These drugs are anti-inflammatory and blood thinners and cause bleeding during implantation.
  • Be sure to tell your doctor if you are taking certain medications;
  • Take a bath before surgery and wash your hair thoroughly with shampoo.
  • If you are taking Minoxidil, stop it one week before the operation.
  • Eat a light but nutritious breakfast or lunch so that you do not feel weak or lethargic during the operation.

Post-Operative Care of Eyebrow Transplant

  • Dressing is sufficient for two days and normal saline and liposomal ATP sprays are required every 2-3 hours after surgery.
  • The first days of eyebrow implantation should not touch the eyebrows. This causes more inflammation of the eyebrows;
  • Antibiotic ointment should be used after eyebrow implantation. This ointment must be used at the right time and accurately;
  • In the first weeks of eyebrow implantation, the use of cosmetics should be avoided.
  • Slight swelling and bruising occur within a few days after surgery and are normal.
  • Do not bend your head down and use a few pillows while sleeping to keep your head above your body.
  • After 48 hours, you can wash the area from which the hair was removed.
  • Avoid strenuous exercise and physical activity.
  • Avoid exposure to direct sunlight.
  • Temporary shedding will occur from two weeks after the operation and the growth starts from 3-4 months and reaches a higher density within 4-6 months. It is not possible to replant before 9 months

Frequently asked questions

FAQ

WHEN ARE THE REAL RESULTS OF EYEBROW IMPLANTS SEEN?

In many people, hair begins to grow 2 to 3 weeks after transplantation and falls out spontaneously after a while; if you see this, do not worry at all because it is completely natural. After the initial hair loss, it takes 6 to 9 months for your real eyebrows to show. After that, you have to wait another 3 to 6 months for all the implants to reach the growth stage and see the true beauty of your face.

WHERE IS THE BEST PLACE TO CHOOSE AN EYEBROW HAIR TRANSPLANT BANK?

For most people, hair behind or around the corners is the best option for implantation in the eyebrow area; But in some cases, your doctor may prefer to use body hair, such as under the beard or chest, for this purpose. Usually in women, hair from other parts of the body can not be used for donation; because there is a big difference between eyebrow hair and body hair; but in some men, body hair may also have the right factors for implantation.

HOW SHOULD EYEBROWS BE WASHED AFTER IMPLANTATION?

For the first 2 days after implantation, clean your eyebrows every 2 to 3 hours with saline follicle spray or any other medication prescribed by your doctor to remove dried blood. These days, you can wash your eyebrows gently with the help of a baby shampoo or cleanser recommended by your doctor with the help of a cosmetic pad. After this time, wash your face with lukewarm water without spraying water directly on the eyebrows. Also use a very soft towel to dry them and never massage or press your eyebrows.

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO SLEEP AFTER EYEBROW IMPLANTATION?

In the first days after implantation, you should place your head above your body and use soft pillows so that no pressure is applied to the harvest area. For this purpose, put two pillows under your head to be at an angle of 30 to 45 degrees and pull a clean cloth on the pillow. In addition, never press your face against the pillow and sleep in a way that does not put pressure on the implanted eyebrows or the back of your head.

WHEN CAN EYEBROWS BE SHAVED AFTER IMPLANTATION?

It is recommended that you do not tie or correct eyebrow implants until the results are completely established. Never do this in the first few weeks after surgery when new hair is growing; because hair grows out of the roots and will never grow again. During this time, trim your eyebrows with scissors and allow them to complete their growth process. If you are in a hurry to shave your eyebrows, you can shave those 3 to 4 months after implantation.

IS THE PRESENCE OF SUTURES ON THE EYEBROWS AN OBSTACLE FOR IMPLANTATION?

No! People who have stitches on their eyebrows can also have eyebrow implants.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO DO EYEBROW IMPLANTS WITH EYEBROWS OR TATTOOS?

Yes! A person who has already done an eyebrow tattoo can also get the desired shape of his eyebrows with the help of natural eyebrow implants.

DOES EYEBROW IMPLANTATION HURT?

No! This procedure will not feel any pain if it is done by a good eyebrow implant specialist. Local anesthesia is used to implant eyebrows and you will not feel any pain.

DOES EYEBROW IMPLANTATION REQUIRE HOSPITALIZATION?

No! Eyebrow implants are an outpatient procedure and do not require the applicant to be hospitalized.

FROM WHICH AREA IS THE HAIR NEEDED FOR EYEBROW IMPLANT REMOVED?

The required hairs are usually removed from the back of the head, behind the ears or above the thighs and attached to the eyebrows.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO TRANSPLANT EYEBROW HAIR FROM ONE PERSON TO ANOTHER?

This method of eyebrow implantation was done in the past, but today this method is no longer used because the incompatibility of the other person’s tissue with the hair of the person doing the implantation creates many problems.

WHEN CAN I GO TO THE BATHROOM AFTER EYEBROW IMPLANTATION?

You can take a bath 48 hours after eyebrow implantation, but the implant area should only be washed with a special serum.

IS EYEBROW TATTOO BETTER OR EYEBROW IMPLANT?

Medical science has rejected the use of tattoos because the eyebrow model is fixed in this method and one can not change it. In addition, the tattooed eyebrow is not natural and its beauty is much less than a natural eyebrow. For this reason, it is recommended that you try eyebrow implants, which are a permanent procedure.
