Eyebrow Transplant

In order to perform an eyebrow transplant, hair follicles are extracted from the donor area and implanted on the receiving one. Even though thanks to the latest techniques the scarring of the donor area is minimal, using your own eyebrow hair as a donor area would still lead to visible scarring on your eyebrow area after the procedure and long after the recovery period. Extracting hair from that zone or from the face in general is also considered not safe so I would personally not suggest it.

can I transplant my own eyebrows but higher? trey are thick, but very low

Can I transplant my own eyebrows into a higher position?

As a specialist of the field, I perform eyebrow transplant procedures every day and I can say that most of the patients who come to my clinic for a procedure have already had a tattooed brow. It is true that the ink might define the area where the grafts are implanted, but if the eyebrow transplant is done with the procedure and from a specialist's hands, you won't have to worry about the ink underneath the implanted hair.

Hello, I'm going to have an eyebrow transplant, but I'm hesitant about having microblanding with a pretty color, since when I removed the other one with laser I was left with a very ugly red residue. And I'm afraid that the red will be noticeable enough and even more difficult post As need to wait before see hair

Hello. You need to be clear about the difference between the concept of graft and follicle. A hair follicle is a unit that is extracted from the donor area, which can have 2-4 grafts/hair. If the eyebrow transplant is done with a DHI procedure, all these follicles are implanted as they are, which means that all those grafts grow in groups of 2-4, all in different directions. This might lead to a bushy look of the brow. In LOFT procedure, the one I personally perform, all grafts are separated and implanted one by one. This gives a more natural result and avoids the possibility of many hairs growing from the same root and in different directions.

Will more hairs grow in eyebrow than the number of grafts placed?

Hello. Thank you for the details you've shared with the community. As an experienced professional, specializing in eyebrow transplantation, I can confirm that a transplant can easily get done over a tattooed brow. Also, you need to bear in mind that a tattooed brow can define the shape of the new transplanted eyebrows (if the tattoo is very thick and needs to be covered). Removing the ink first would be optimal but that would elongate the process as you'd have to wait about 4 months until the ink is gone and your skin has recovered.

Following a motorbyke accident where I scraped my face 25 years ago I started tattooing my eyebrows where the hairs stopped growing. There was no cosmetic tattoo at the time so mine is a full on tattoo which I periodically retouch. I now have a half hair half ink situation which I'd like to fix. Is it possible to do an eyebrow transplant directly over the ink or better to remove with laser first?

Is it possible to do an eyebrow transplant on top of an eyebrow tattoo?

Thank you for sharing your concern. The look of pubic hair that worries you is a result of a transplantation done with the wrong technique. Most doctors use the same technique as used for hair transplantation, which leads to a bushy brow look. It's caused since the implanted follicles contain more than one graft in it and they all grow in different directions. This is a procedure I don't advise as an experienced professional in this field. With the LOFT eyebrow transplant, hair grafts are implanted one by one, in compliance with the patient's wish and face structure. This way, eyebrows end up looking very natural and not bushy.

I sadly over-plucked my brows when younger. My head hairs are pretty thick &amp; I've seen pictures on here of brow transplants that look like pubic hair.. Would this happen to me with my thick hair? Makes me nervous. I don't want big brows as they don't suit my face and half my brows are missing so only start where my pupils are.. So, as this would require fewer grafts, would that make the procedure cheaper? I don't have much spare money but this could really change my life

Hello. Thank you for sharing your concern with the RealSelf community. Based on your pictures and the description of the situation, as a professional of this field, I can assure you that your donor area is perfectly suitable for a hair transplant procedure. I wouldn't suggest you opt for transplantation with hair from your pubic area, as the implanted hair would be thicker and wouldn't suit your face. I personally use the LOFT method for hair transplantation, which is a method that gives you amazing results from the first day. After the eyebrow hair has been implanted, you can just dye your eyebrow once every few months, and all will be fine. With the LOFT method, your hair doesn't fall down after implantation or you don't face any other issues.

Hi, I will be in Istanbul, Turkey soon. I know there are lots of wonderful hair transplant surgeons there. But I found difficulty finding any of them who are comfortable with using pubic hair or underarm/armpit hair as the donor site, saying the results are not good. Does anyone know of good results being achieved with this hair? I ask because my scalp hair is very light, but my eyebrows are black.

Can good results be achieved when using pubic or armpit hair as donor site for eyebrow transplant?
