The most common cause of eyebrow loss, especially in women, is plucking their eyebrows. As the eyebrows are removed very often, other follicles (hairs) in the area usually do not come out.
Apart from this, there are other reasons, such as hormonal reasons, nutritional / vitamin deficiencies, stress, menopause, pregnancy, and eczema.
Women primarily define the eyebrow line with eyebrow tattooing (Microblading, micro pigmentation, or hair technique). However, because the color of tattoos fades and does not look natural, today, women have turned to eyebrow transplantation because they want a natural and definitive solution!
What is an eyebrow transplantation?
Eyebrow transplantation is the transplantation of hair follicles taken from a small area from the hair area on the nape to the eyebrow area. In other words, it is tissue transplantation.
The grafts (hair follicles) on the nape are strong enough not to fall out for almost a lifetime. Single and double grafts (hair roots) taken from this area are planted in the eyebrow area with the DHI technique.
Eyebrow transplantation
Eyebrow transplantation is a surgical procedure that involves transplanting hair follicles from one part of the body, typically the scalp, to the eyebrow area in order to create a fuller, more natural-looking eyebrow. The procedure is typically performed by a hair transplant surgeon and can take around 2 hours to complete.
The technique used in the procedure is called DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) which is a modern and advanced method of hair transplantation. DHI technique uses a tool called CHOI pen which allows the surgeon to directly implant the hair follicles into the recipient area without making any incisions. This results in minimal pain, no scarring and a faster recovery.
The healing process after the eyebrow transplantation takes about 7-10 days. During this time, the transplanted hair will fall out, but this is normal and should not cause any concern. After a month, new hair will begin to grow, and after three months the hair will be fully grown and will look natural and permanent.

Eyebrow transplant operation
Eyebrow transplantation is an operation that takes about 2 hours. The nape area is anesthetized with Dermojet (Needle-Free Anesthesia), and grafts are taken. With the DHI technique, “a Choi Pen” tool, the grafts are transplanted into the eyebrow area.
The most crucial point of the eyebrow transplant operation is planting grafts at the right angle to the area to be planted. The naturalness in the image is proportional to the planting angles.
On average, the swelling goes down 2-3 days after the operation, and only the crusting process continues, and this process heals completely in an average of 7-10 days.
Afterward, some of the transplanted grafts are lost depending on the physiological structure of the person. For example, some people lose their strands of %20. Also, some people lose of %80, but three months after the operation, the losing strands start to come out again. After the inner tissues have healed (15-30 days after the operation), you can paint the eyebrow area with a pencil.
It takes 6-12 months for the eyebrows to heal entirely and the eyebrows to grow (The growth period also varies depending on the physiological structure of the person).
Post-operative care
After the operation, you should be careful not to rub the eyebrows anywhere until the scabs fall off. You sleep with the neck pillow provided by us.
You should not scratch the eyebrow area during the scabbing process.
One day after the operation, the eyebrows are washed and moistened with the shampoo given to us. This process is repeated daily until the scabs fall off.
There is no harm in taking a shower after the operation, and it will be enough not to touch your eyebrows with pressurized water in the shower. Those planted with pressurized water may cause the grafts to come out.
Our medical consultants want you for a photo every two to three days after the operation to control it. After the scabs fall out, we check them once a month until a year is completed.
After the scabs fall off, you patiently wait for your new eyebrows to grow without having to do anything.
When your new eyebrows start to grow, they are combed daily with an eyebrow brush, thus correcting their direction.
At first, they grow faster than normal eyebrows, and that’s why you cut regularly. Afterward, they rise to the same extent, similar to other eyebrows.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How many types of anesthesia techniques for eyebrow transplantation are there?
There are 2 types of anesthesia techniques. Local anesthesia and Needle-Free Anesthesia.
Local anesthesia is injected with standard needles, and anesthesia is performed on average in five minutes. Afterward, the injected area becomes completely numb. Thus, you will not have pain during and after the operation.
Pain Duration: Average of 5 minutes
Needle-Free Anesthesia is a device that gives anesthesia for the area of the operation by pressure, not by needles. After the site is entirely anesthetized, anesthesia is continued with a needle, and the person does not feel it.
We use this device only in the area where we take the grafts (donor area). Because some bruising occurs after the pressure in the using area, we do not use it in the transplant area.
Needle-free anesthesia is an ideal solution for people with needle phobia.
Pain Duration: Average of 3 minutes

Eyebrow transplant or microblading?
Eyebrow transplants and microblading are two popular options for those looking to enhance the appearance of their eyebrows.
Eyebrow transplants, also known as eyebrow restoration, is a surgical procedure that involves transplanting hair from a donor area, such as the scalp, to the eyebrow area. The procedure is performed by a trained and qualified surgeon and typically takes between 2-3 hours. The transplanted hair will grow in over time and will eventually match the color and texture of the individual’s natural eyebrows.
The recovery period for an eyebrow transplant is typically 1-2 weeks, during which time the individual experience some swelling, redness, and itching. The results of an eyebrow transplant is very natural-looking and help to define, shape, and thicken the brows.
Microblading, on the other hand, is a semi-permanent makeup procedure that involves using a fine needle to deposit pigment into the skin. The procedure is performed by a trained and qualified microblading artist and typically takes between 1-2 hours. The results of microblading can last for up to 1-3 years, depending on the individual’s skin type and aftercare.
The recovery period for microblading is minimal, and the individual may experience some redness, and slight swelling, but overall the procedure is considered to be painless. Microblading can help to define, shape, and thicken the brows. However, it’s important to keep in mind that results will vary depending on the individual and touch-ups may be required.
Both eyebrow transplants and microblading are effective ways to enhance the appearance of the eyebrows. However, the choice between the two depends on the individual’s desired results, budget and lifestyle. Eyebrow transplants are a more permanent solution, but they require a surgical procedure and a recovery period, while microblading is a semi-permanent solution, it is less invasive, but touch-ups are required.
In conclusion, eyebrow transplant operation provides a better quality and natural solution than microblading.
