Eyebrow Transplant in Istanbul
Eyebrow hair loss can affect both women and men. Genetics, overplucking, scars, injuries, medical conditions or previous procedures may cause thinning or partial loss of the eyebrows.
An eyebrow transplant in Istanbul can be considered for patients who want to improve eyebrow density, restore missing areas or create a more defined eyebrow shape using their own hair follicles.
At Universal Hair Transplant, the shape, density and direction of the eyebrows are planned according to the patient’s facial features and existing eyebrow structure.
How Does an Eyebrow Transplant Work?
An eyebrow transplant follows similar principles to a hair transplant in Istanbul, but the design and placement of the follicles require particular attention.
Hair follicles are generally taken from a suitable donor area at the back of the scalp. These follicles are then transplanted individually into areas of the eyebrow where additional density is needed.
Because eyebrow hairs grow at specific angles and directions, careful placement of each graft is important for creating a natural appearance.
Eyebrow Design and Graft Placement
Before the procedure, the eyebrow shape is planned according to the patient’s facial proportions, existing eyebrow line and desired appearance.
The direction and angle of the transplanted follicles are particularly important. Eyebrow hairs do not grow in the same direction across the entire eyebrow, so graft placement must follow the natural pattern as closely as possible.
The final number of grafts depends on the amount of existing eyebrow hair, the size of the area being treated and the desired density.
FUE and DHI Techniques for Eyebrow Transplant
Different transplantation techniques may be considered depending on the patient’s needs.
With an FUE hair transplant, individual follicles are extracted from the donor area before transplantation.
The DHI hair transplant technique may also be used in selected eyebrow procedures where precise placement of individual follicles is required.
The most suitable method is determined after assessing the donor area, eyebrow design and number of grafts required.
Who May Be Suitable for an Eyebrow Transplant?
Eyebrow transplantation may be considered for patients who have:
- Naturally thin eyebrows
- Partial eyebrow loss
- Areas affected by scars or previous injuries
- Uneven eyebrow density
- A suitable donor area for follicle extraction
The condition of the existing eyebrow hair and the reason for the hair loss should be evaluated before treatment.
How Long Does an Eyebrow Transplant Take?
The duration of the procedure depends on the number of grafts required and the size of the treatment area.
Eyebrow transplantation usually involves a relatively small number of grafts compared with a scalp hair transplant, but each follicle needs to be positioned carefully.
Temporary redness, small crusts and sensitivity may occur after the procedure. Patients should follow the aftercare instructions provided by their medical team during the healing period.
When Do Transplanted Eyebrow Hairs Grow?
The transplanted follicles need time to enter their normal growth cycle.
Some transplanted hairs may shed during the first weeks after the procedure. New growth generally develops gradually over the following months.
Because the transplanted follicles usually come from the scalp, the new eyebrow hairs may grow longer than natural eyebrow hairs and may require regular trimming.
