How to do the intervention?
The hairs to be transplanted are taken from neck’s lower part where hair shows similar characteristics to these areas (hair in this area is better). Eyebrows have to be transplanted from grafts which are made up of one, or at most two, hair units. In this intervention, growth direction of each hair in the eyebrow should be followed strictly. The growth direction may be different according to the location of the hair. Only by following the growth direction can a natural result be possible following an operation.
For design of eyebrows, beard and mustache, it is crucially important to determine the appearance properly according to the physiology of the patient’s face.
Sometimes patients come with pencil or stencil drawings of the related area done by stylists or make-up specialists. In such cases, the patient should be seen before the operation and he/she should be given information on how the transplant will look.
In the eyebrow area, each eyebrow is transplanted around 200 to 500 hair units and this is usually sufficient to fill the gaps.
