Eyebrow hair transplant

WORTH IT$3,000
I’m an Asian female in my late 20s. I had decent eyebrows but the ends were kind of thin and short. They were not too difficult to elongate with makeup until I had permanent makeup done in the early days of permanent make up development. In 2013 I had a “certified” permanent makeup aesthetician did my browns. It was supposed to be 3D but after the scabs fell and two refills, they were just not 3D. By that time, it was 2015 and I saw many of my friends had good looking 3D tattooed browns and so I knew If I ever going to do anything again with my browns, I’d get the real thing, hair transplants!
I did my research here and there but I felt frustrated bc hair eyebrow transplant procedures are not as common as permanent makeup and the procedures are still very marketed towards men. Yet I’ve seen many girls want to remove their bad browns pigments via laser and chemical peel! I also think they are expensive and the reviewed quality are inconsistent until I came across dr. Pak in New Hair Institute.
I went to their regular open house event with my husband. I felt welcome and warm even though the participants were mostly men. Hahaha. And did I mention my husband is bald and doesn’t care?! They didn’t push him to do anything! That’s one of the many reason that I decided to do my procedure there.
There was a live eyebrow transplant procedure going on, so I had the chance to see what I will be getting. The staff gave us gowns and PPE to observe the procedure. It seem painless and it was painless in my case.
Right after the consultation, I scheduled an operation date! Everything went smoothly and at post-up, the staff washed my hair carefully with their special shampoo.
I didn’t think the procedure price was cheap for my desire to elongate my browns BUT I think I paid for the quality of service and the overall care. Besides Dr. offers a free touch up procedure one year after the original procedure. I thought it was fair and practical that he has this offer considering hair follicles dies and sometimes don’t resurface after months. Anyways, now it’s been 4 months! And here’s my browns!!
I’m happy with my browns but I also noticed some tiny gaps. I must say many hair fell out in the first two weeks and I was upset but they did grow back just like Dr. Pak told me. *Phew
Can’t wait till the end of this year and see if they will fill in a little more.
Thanks for reading my journey. Hope you find this review useful. I will probably write another updated review later for the 6 month mark. Stay tuned!

Your result look quite natural from the photos. It will be great if you could upload more high resolution close up photos after 6 months. Btw, how many graphs on each brow did you have transplanted?

After my second procedure
jasminteaJune 20, 2019
Today was my first time doing eyebrow shaping in a year! I didn’t want to do anything with my eyebrow between the hair transplant procedures because I was also getting microblading to remove the permanent makeup. Anyhow, two weeks after the second procedure I decided to get my eyebrow shape done.
Because of the procedures, the shapes of my eyebrows have completely changed. So I want to have a professional eye to trim my eyebrows. I took some photos to share with you.... whoever is out there sharing similar experience with me and now seeking a resolution.
I had some makeup to cover the pigments from preexisting permanent makeup in the pictures but you can tell my brows are no longer skinny tattoo strokes but real hair! *screaming inside*
Ps. I took two sets of pictures in different lightings. In the warmer lights, the red pigments are not as obvious.

Thanks for your review. I had two eyebrow transplantations, but my hairs really stick out so much that people have been asking me what the hell I did with my eyebrows. Do you have any idea how to make them lay on the skin instead of sticking out? Did you have also this problem? It really makes me so conscious about them the whole time, and it affects me psychologically :(
Do you have pictures of how it looks now? :)
