Eyebrows
- Patients seeking to restore missing eyebrows or to repair
partially missing eyebrows may want to consider eyebrow
transplantation.
Eyebrow transplantation offers natural, permanent results for
people who desire fuller eyebrows. The surgery involves
transplantation of micro-grafts of 1 -2 hairs from a donor area to
the eyebrow. The density and number of eyebrow hairs
transplanted varies with each case, and some patients may
require an additional session to achieve their goal. Two or more
sessions several months apart are common.
and orientation to serve as eyebrow hair is removed from a donor area on the scalp
and grafted into the surgically-prepared eyebrow site. The removal from the donor
area is undetectable.
At the Gabel Center, we recreate the eyebrow in a natural contour with donor hair
taken from a site that has finer rather than coarser hair. This is because finer hair is
a better match for eyebrow hair. Using fine surgical instrumentation, we place each
micro-graft into an incision prepared for it with our custom-cut microblades,
ensuring proper direction and growth of each hair.
Postoperatively, there may be some mild bruising, swelling and discomfort at the
eyebrow and donor site areas for which we will prescribe medication. We will also
give you detailed instructions for postoperative care.
After 3 weeks, the transplanted hair usually sheds while the follicle inside the
eyebrow remains alive and active. After 6 - 8 weeks, the eyebrows start to grow and
will have the same characteristics as the donor hair.
For aesthetics, the new eyebrow hairs may require occasional trimming as well as
gel or wax for “training” the hair to grow in the desired direction. You can expect a
full cosmetic result in 12 months.
