High eyebrows. Is it difficult to do a transplant on the bottom edge of the eyebrows near the eyes?

Yes — transplanting hairs on the lower edge of the eyebrows, especially close to the eyes, is considered a highly delicate and technically demanding procedure.

The main challenge is the direction, angle, and depth of implantation.
In this area, the skin is very thin, vascular, and close to sensitive structures such as the eyelid and orbital rim. Even a slight deviation in angle (by just a few degrees) can make the hairs grow unnaturally downward or outward.

For this reason, eyebrow transplants — especially at the lower margin — should only be performed by an experienced surgeon using magnification and ultra-fine implantation tools.
When done correctly, it can achieve a natural, soft frame around the eyes without visible scars.

Hello,

Transplanting to the lower edge of the eyebrows near the eyes is a delicate procedure, but it is absolutely achievable with the right expertise. Precision is key to ensure natural results and proper alignment with the existing eyebrow shape. Working close to the eyes requires advanced skill, so I recommend choosing a highly experienced surgeon for this type of transplant.

Hello I'm Dr. Wipawan Vathananai, a co-worker of Dr. Kulakarn Amonpattana, from BHI Clinic, Bangkok, Thailand. Is it possible if you could provide some photos and specify the area of the eyebrows you would like to get the transplant? Thank you

Hello, the hardness of this surgery depends on anatomy and eyebrow arch (bony structure of eyebrow area). This structure signifies if the operation will be hard or not to perform.
