Eyebrow Transplantation
Eyebrow transplant is one of the most preferred procedures especially by women. Since women regularly pluck their eyebrows, the eyebrows lose their youthfulness and volume. It is possible to reach the desired volume and thickness of eyebrows by means of eyebrow transplant. In addition, people can lose their eyebrows due to traumas, burning or accident. Eyebrow transplant is performed successfully for people who experience this kind of situations as well.
Travel, your stay and aftercare
How long do I need to stay in Turkey after the procedure?
Plan for 2 days in Antalya for this procedure. A final check-up takes place before you fly home — you are only cleared to travel after it. Combined procedures can require a longer stay.
When can I fly after surgery?
You are cleared to fly home only after your final check-up — for this procedure typically after 2 days. Do not fly earlier, even if you feel fine: your doctor decides based on wound healing. You are given guidance for the flight.
When can I go back to work and exercise?
For a mainly desk-based job, expect around 1 day. Physically demanding work, sport, sauna and swimming take considerably longer and are cleared individually at your check-up. Going back to full activity too early is one of the most common reasons for a poorer result.
What happens if I have a complication after returning home?
Contact your coordinator straight away — the same person who looked after you in Antalya, by WhatsApp or phone. Send photos of the area; the assessment is made together with the doctor who operated on you. We then work out whether it can be treated where you live — we provide your surgical records and medical reports for that — or whether coming back to Antalya makes sense. For acute symptoms such as severe pain, fever, breathlessness or sudden swelling, go to your nearest emergency department first and tell us afterwards.

Frequently asked questions about Eyebrow Transplantation
Who can have an Eyebrow Transplant?

Also, in order to grow eyebrows, the person`s body development should be completed. Because, as a person grows, his or her face develops, and the body structure changes.
Eyebrow Transplant and the donor area
Donor area is very important for the Eyebrow Transplant. Different donor areas can be preferred in men and women. In the Eyebrow Transplant for men, as well as beard, sideburn and neck, also pubic region can be preferred. In female candidates, the neck or pubic region may be preferred as the donor area
The most appropriate donor area is preferred for this procedure. The selection of the donor is determined by consultation between the doctor and patient after the examination
After deciding a suitable donor area, the number of grafts to be transplanted on the patient is calculated and, the amount of grafts required is determined
Because of the small number of grafts can be used in Eyebrow Transplant, it does not last as long as a hair transplant. It is usually finished in 1 to 2 hours.
Although the number of grafts needed by the person in this procedure is determined, an average of 100 to 400 grafts can be inserted
Natural appearance is very important in Eyebrow Transplant as in Hair Transplant procedure. Therefore, the structure of the eyebrows, and the direction and angles of eyebrows should be carefully evaluated before the procedure.
Eyebrow Transplant Procedure Steps
Firstly, local anesthesia is performed on the donor area where the hair follicles are removed. By means of the anesthesia, no pain is felt during the procedure. The hair follicles in the donor area are removed with a micromotor and collected by means of a special medical device. The collected grafts are separated one by one and made ready for the transplant procedure, and they are kept in a cold temperature. The tiny channels are made at the correct angles and directions to get the ideal brow shape for Eyebrow Transplant. Making channels is the process of opening tiny hollows in which the hair roots are placed. After this process, the hair roots collected are placed in these channels and the transplant process is completed. The donor area where the hair follicles are collected after eyebrow transplant is covered with a bandage
Is an Eyebrow Transplant painful?
The patient does not feel any pain during or after the procedure. After transplanting the roots of the eyebrows, the patient should cut eyebrows regularly. Due to the roots of hair planted in the area of the eyebrows, new eyebrows cannot remain as short as a brow and continue to grow. By means of this, the patient can have a natural appearance
The steps after an Eyebrow Transplant?
After an Eyebrow Transplant, some scabs and crusts forming can occur in the eyebrow area after nearly 2 weeks. This is a natural process. The renewed roots may begin to emerge in many people, such as 3 months, but usually all the roots of the eyebrows emerge nearly after 6 months.
What are the results of Eyebrow Transplant?
Approximately 1 year later, the roots of your new eyebrows begin to gain the naturalness of the development in the area. It is not possible for the roots to be lost again when the eyebrows develop completely after 6 months, and they start to take their shape. Just like your original eyebrows you can easily shape them
