Eyebrow Transplantation

The procedure is done using local anesthetic so the patient does not feel any pain or discomfort. The procedure is done using an automated FUE system. The transplantation will start with follicles being removed from the donor site, which is the back of the head, similar to the other hair transplantations. Then the hair follicles are placed carefully into the eyebrow area in the correct angle and direction.  The transplantation takes around 3 to 4 hours to perform.

FUE Method – Follicular Unit Extraction. The FUE method is a new method of hair transplantation which follicular units are removed individually from the donor site, so this means that the follicles will remain in the same state and grow normally in the recipient site

Follicle – the skin organ that produces hair

Donor site – the area which an organ or tissue is removed for transplantation or grafting

Local Anesthesia – induces absence of sensation to a specific part of the body

The patient must take care of the transplanted area and use any medication prescribed correctly and on time. The patient may take the day to rest or explore the city.

Patients will attend a post transplantation appointment for a final check up, washing of the transplanted area and consultation. The patient will be advised on further medication. If everything is right then the patient is ready to return to their destination, or enjoy their time in Turkey.
