What Is an Eyebrow Transplant?

An eyebrow transplant is a process of extracting matching hair follicles from a donor site and transplanting them to the eyebrow region. Depending on the patient’s needs, the surgeon can implant from a few FUE grafts to hundreds to create an attractive eyebrow.

If you have permanent eyebrow loss and are tired of camouflaging your eyebrows, an eyebrow hair transplant is the answer to regaining your self-confidence.

Who Is an FUE Brow Restoration Candidate?

Candidates for an eyebrow transplant at TPS have:

• Suffered permanent eyebrow loss.
• Have difficulty hiding or camouflaging bare eyebrows.
• Search for a permanent solution that doesn’t cause linear scarring.

How to Prepare for a Surgery?

To prepare for an eyebrow hair transplant procedure patients should:

• Avoid sun exposure for 2 weeks before surgery
• Avoid vigorous exercise for one week before the procedure
• Stop taking blood-thinning medications
• Stop smoking
• Stop drinking alcohol for one week before the procedure
• Go over hair products with the physician

How Is an Eyebrow Transplant in Toronto Performed by Dr. Bell?

The process is done under local anesthesia. The TPS team uses automated or robotic systems to remove hair follicles from the donor site, which is typically the side of the scalp for an eyebrow match.

The hair follicles are harvested using the robotic rotary punch technique, Artas, and NeoGraft. A small needle is used to create the recipient sites in the eyebrow at just the right density and angulation. The FUE grafts are then placed manually in the slits.

Recovery and Timeline

Patients can expect mild to moderate pain following the eyebrow hair transplant procedure. It can take up to 4 months to begin to see pleasing growth and the full results are not appreciated until 1 year after the procedure. The results are permanent.

Day of procedure: Patients are discharged with a surgical dressing on the donor site.

1-2 weeks: The recipient site will scab over and the scab will shed on its own. Patients can typically return to work several days following the procedure. Many wear sunglasses to camouflage the scabs for the first week or so.

While a full recovery can take 12 days, the signs of the surgery are often gone within 7-10 days. At this point, people feel confident and ready to go out in public.

4 Benefits of an Eyebrow Transplant

Natural-looking Eyebrows

The FUE eyebrow transplant technique uses your own hair follicles and provides natural-looking results. Your eyebrows will have a natural look and the desired thickness you want.

No Linear Scars

Some eyebrow transplant techniques cause linear scarring at the donor site. However, Dr. Bell uses NeoGraft and Artas, automate and robotic FUE techniques that eliminate scarring. These techniques do not require scalpels or incisions.

Permanent Results

The results of an eyebrow hair transplant at SpaMedica are permanent. You should not require any additional eyebrow procedures.

Confidence

Newfound confidence is easily achievable with an eyebrow hair transplant performed by expert cosmetic surgeons at TPS.

4 Eyebrow Transplant Risks

Every procedure comes with a small chance of potential complications. The best thing patients can do to minimize the likelihood of complications is to select a trusted surgeon. The team at TPS has years of experience performing eyebrow hair transplants and has not seen any of the serious risks associated with this procedure:

Mild Pain

The procedure itself is painful due to anesthesia. However, mild pain is common following the process.

Infection

Infection is a rare complication, but it is possible. Infection can occur at the donor or transplant site. Preventative antibiotics are used.

Transplant Failure

While rare, transplant failure is possible. This happens when the root fails to pick up the blood supply. This occurs less than 10 percent of the time and almost never to a significant number of the FUE grafts.

Anesthesia Complications

Complications from anesthesia are always possible during a surgical procedure. Dr. Bell and the team at TPS take special precautions to reduce the risk.

Non-Surgical Eyebrow Transplant Alternatives

Micropigmentation and various methods of cosmetic tattooing are alternatives to FUE Transplantation. Older strip graft surgical harvest techniques would also be an alternative, albeit, more painful and with scarification, as opposed to FUE transplant.

Best Procedures Paired With Eyebrow Transplant Surgery

Botox injectable, dermal soft tissue fillers, anti-aging facial treatments and laser hair removal pair well with FUE eyebrow transplantation.

FAQs

How Painful Is It to Get an Eyebrow Hair Transplant?

Patients can expect a low to moderate level of pain. Pronox nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is used during the injection of the local anesthesia to ensure all patients are comfortable.

How Long Does Hair Grow After an Eyebrow Hair Transplant?

Hair can continue to appear and grow for up to 12 months following a transplant.

How Long in Centimetres Will the Transplanted FUE Hair Grafts Be After Eyebrow Hair Transplant?

One of the downsides of FUE eyebrow hair transplantation is that the shafts that grow are genetically programmed to be very long, (like in the scalp) and you will have to trim them to match your native eyebrow hair shaft length.

What Material Does an Eyebrow Transplant Use?

TPS will only use donor follicles from your head for the transplant.

What Is the Youngest You Can Be to Get an Eyebrow Hair Transplant?

Most patients are 30-50 years old, although those 18 and older can get an eyebrow hair transplantation.
